This campground is in a scenic and quiet location on the Eel River in the heart of the California Redwoods. It is an older facility with limited accommodations for larger RVs but we had no trouble with our 35' motor home. Our site was "on the river" but it was some distance away and not visible, partly at least because this was mid-summer and the water level was very low. Our biggest complaint was that the park's power grid was inadequate to support the load in the summer heat. We had only 105 volts at our site and could not run our A/C on it. We did get permission to run our generator for a few hours until after dark when the outside temperature cooled down. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I agree with the other poster except to say that it was a tight fit for a 40' motorhome. We had one of the "river front" sites, which was on the river bed, but the actual river was a short walk away. Nice and quiet setting, but too much money for what you get. I think they jacked up the prices to pay for the pavement that's buckling because of upcoming tree roots. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We've stayed here a couple times over the past 4 years when we stop to visit friends nearby on our way to Oregon. A few years ago it was great. This year, however, (2005) they raised the price to what we considered exorbitant for the area and for what you get ($36 for one full hook-up night). We didn't consider the driveway to be steep at all, just a slight hill. And there are no waterfront sites, although there are sites from which you can see the river. It's a short walk down a rocky path to actually get to the water. The staff were all very helpful and friendly, but we saw nothing to justify the large rate hike. The upper section is filled with permanent or semi-permanent residents, and the lower area was virtually empty. So why was the only other camper to pull in to the lower area given a site right next to ours, leaving the whole rest of the lower campground completely empty. Maybe it's just us but we prefer a modicum of privacy if space in the park permits. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The sites are fairly large and level. We found this park to be excellent value as all services were included in the price including cable TV and WiFi. It does not have a pool but does have a hot tub. We would return to this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Although the bathrooms were old, decrepit, and not very clean, this was actually a pretty nice park because it was so shady and quiet. It is right next to Avenue of the Giants, and not far from Highway 101, yet we could not hear the road at all. The campsites are shaded by redwood trees. The sites were not level, and the mixed dirt/gravel surface might get muddy in the rain. There were no markets or gas stations in the area. However, if you want to visit the Humboldt redwoods, this may be the most convenient private campground in the area, especially since it is at the north (i.e. cooler) end of the Humboldt State Park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
