Good news and bad news here. I was a little stressed after driving on the curvy, narrow Hwy 1 and after almost being hit by an out of control car. I was so glad to get here. However, it's not the best place. I said bathrooms were clean. Floors were dirty, but it's dirt all over so maybe they can't be kept clean. I got one TV station with the new box. If I could speak Spanish it might have been okay. No cell service. WiFi works good but costs $3 per day. Lots of mosquitoes and bugs which isn't their fault. They have a lot of activities going on. The lady in the office did her job but was not overly friendly or accommodating. It was okay for a one night stay, but I wouldn't stay longer. There was a small store with some groceries and supplies. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We made the mistake of choosing a holiday weekend to stay at this facility. I really felt sorry for the managers of this resort as there were a lot of noisy people. We didn't use the bathrooms or showers only because they were a mess due to the heavy foot traffic and because some people can't seem to keep their kids in check. The managers were constantly unplugging the toilets. The site we occupied was adequate and private enough that we didn't encounter too many of the other guests. It could have been a little cleaner. By that I mean it should have been canvased for paper bits, cigarette butts, etc. in between guests at the site. Maybe there just wasn't time that weekend. Because it was Memorial Day the crowd was a bit on the rowdy side. If you decide to choose this RV park, be aware that a holiday weekend is probably not the best time if you are trying to read a good book. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We were here prior to the season and it may be that the place is better later. General appearance scruffy and unkempt. Didn't want to use the rest rooms as they we antiquated. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We were very disappointed in this park as the ads made it much better than it really was. The park has many permanent residents and their personal spaces were not very well maintained. There was no maintenance around - no raking or even making sure the tables were clean. The spot we took was secluded and next to the host. Disappointingly, our area was full of household trash, i.e., old mattresses and other such "junk". We left the next morning. Beautiful redwoods but simply not a beautiful park. Understandably for the area, no cell coverage and satellite will not work, but park provides Wi-Fi. I would not recommend. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was not the park I expected to stay in. While the sites are shaded, they are small and oddly placed within the park. There are a number of full-time residents and a number of CalTrans workers staying in the park. The sites were not exactly clean, they hadn't been raked and there was trash present in our site when we arrived. In general, I would not stay at this park again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It was fine as an overnight place to stay but we wouldn't make it a destination. There are a lot of semi-permanent residents there and not all of them take good care of their sites or rigs. It was pretty dusty but that couldn't be helped because the road construction was taking place right outside the park. The staff was friendly. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I would not recommend this "resort." The highway traffic is terrible (especially in sites 38 and 39). Exhaust from trucks and cars permeated our trailer and the noise kept us up at night. There was construction right across from the park with a nonstop jack hammer (not their fault, admittedly), but this killed any peaceful experience we might have had from 7a.m.- 5:00p.m. When we tried to walk our dogs around the sites, full timers had their dogs off leash, which made it impossible to exercise ours. Getting a refund was unpleasant -- staff did not know what their policy was, then refunded incorrect amount, and when we attempted to rectify it, they gave us attitude. Just 20 miles north on 101 in Garberville, there is a much nicer park with an espresso/gift shop across the street. I wish we had stayed there. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This park is in the process of being upgraded. WiFi was being installed as we got there and we got great reception. It has some deficiencies, but this has to be one of the prettiest parks we have ever used. We had a redwood in our site. Amazing. neat location for seeing the area and nice people. When I think of California redwoods, I will think of this campground. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This place was a hoot. We may have lucked out at getting space #21, but for hitting all the sights in the area, this is definitely a great base camp. The grounds are well-established, old, but the playgrounds are new and well-maintained, the pool is great, they do things for the kids, like ice cream socials and movie nights, kareoke, stuff like that, on the week-ends. The staff was top-notch. Highway 101 is just above the camp, which might make the east-side campsites noisy, but we were pretty much in the center of the grounds, and it was nominal. The redwoods were just too dense to let much sound through. The Eel River is below the campground, and we had a wonderful time there, just sliding down the smooth stones. The reason I say we lucked out with #21 is, despite being close to the center of camp, in a pull-through, we were uniquely isolated by a large fruit-laden blackberry bush. Help yourself, since blackberry is practically a weed in these parts. Some might be put off by the large number of permanent residents, and until 2010, when Caltrans expects to complete a re-alignment project on 101, there's a lot of construction workers also in semi-permanent residency. Still, we found the entire Redwood River experience top-notch, and we highly recommend it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park was a huge disappointment! It was old and dirty. The spots looked like they hadn't been cleaned or raked in years. They advertise pull through spots but they only have 2 and they charge an extra $4.00 for them. The electric hook-up was hanging on the box and wouldn't support running both our A/C and microwave at the same time. They say they have wifi in their ad, but they told us after checking in they didn't have it. There is no TV reception here at all!! Big trucks run the road all night and it is very noisy as the road is only yards from the park. We wouldn't stay here again. Go down the road a bit to Benbow. There is a nice park there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A beautiful park in the redwoods. Good family park with a variety of activities for children and adults. Few large sites adequate for Class A and C units. Lots of tent sites. Roads not paved, natural ground sites among the trees. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Great place to spend a weekend for a week. We plan to return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this place--came here on the recommendation of cousins who'd been coming here for years. It's been around for over 50 years, but is very well cared for and well updated. The campground is beautiful, and very fun for kids. Nice swimming pool, lots of kid-friendly activities, movies at night, etc. Great "resort" type place for family vacations, and many kid-friendly activities to do in the area. For us, the highlight was the 300 yard hike down a steep path to the Eel River, where we swam for hours. Absolutely beautiful--bring goggles to see the fish! We will definitely be back here, hopefully with a larger group. The only minor negative was dust, though the lack of ugly concrete offset that. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Park is within a very pretty, wooded (Redwoods) area. Not many people in mid-May and we had the park to ourselves. Facilities needed a little mending but seems to be very family oriented. A few minute walk (from within the park) down to the scenic Eel River. Also has a lodge, cabins and tent sites. Camp store for "necessities". Family owned and operated. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Dirt/gravel roads (dusty), old though clean restrooms, nice pool, old cabins, close to the Eel River (mosquitos), lodge. But it is in the big trees and that made it OK. The other campers here were very friendly. A little pricy for what you get. I'd stop over there but wouldn't stay long. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice place,but you really gotta watch it when you're approaching the place from the south as it's there before you know it and traffic can be bad there.....Some very odd sites, but workable and the management is really very nice. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
