Burlington - Humboldt Redwoods State Park

We loved staying in the Redwoods! Such a peaceful and amazing place to dwell.

There are no hookups, so come prepared! We liked our little cozy spot. The actual sites are nice and spacious, but the area you have to park your rig are TINY, so it can definitely be difficult the bigger your rig is. I had a challenging time backing in our 21 ft trailer.

But once we were settled, we had a great stay and I wish we could have stayed longer!

They also have free coffee and tea at the visitor center that we took advantage of in the morning. Nice touch!

Scenic campground on the Avenue of Giants!

We stayed here when all the Redwood Nat’l/State Parks were fully booked, and I’m beyond pleased that we did! Truly fantastic, one-of-a-kind place to stay—with phenomenal hiking in old-growth groves, too!

Bathrooms were adequate, floors were often wet, but most had soap and lights, which you don’t always get. Showers coin-operated, hot and good pressure. Floors puddle a lot. You do get a whole room to yourself, though. Really nice dish station with two big utility tubs and hot and cold water in our area of the campground. Wood available at check-in station.

Site fairly clean, but several old tent stakes lying about. Lots of noisy crows overhead in the evenings. Tree canopy keeps things pretty dark all day, but we were never cold. Slept really well. Site was fairly level once we figured out how to configure our two tents. LOTS of poison oak but it’s mostly contained in fenced areas between sites. We were able to avoid it fairly easily. Sites are generous but you are pretty close to your neighbors, and the main road is very tight, believe what others have said about it.

Be sure to spend some time at the Visitor Center—it’s a nice one and the folks are very friendly.
