Hidden Gem

We have stayed here twice now. We went for our second stay when visiting the Redwoods because we really appreciate a first come first serve campground. And this one is truly amazing! Tucked back in the Redwoods, you can hear highway noise from 101 but we chose a spot closer to the entrance and it didn’t bother us at all. The park has a day use area and even short trails that meander through the middle of the campground that are gorgeous. The camp host and his wife were so kind and sold firewood for $10 a bundle (by the way people, you shouldn’t just go up and take firewood when there is clearly a sign to ask the host…). Flush toilets. The only thing that would make this campground better are showers. Otherwise we had a great time here and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a spot in the area!

Great Campgrounds in the Redwoods!!!

First off I must say I have stayed at many campgrounds this passed year. I’ve seen poorly managed, unkept & some amazing campgrounds. This campgrounds is rather peace & the location is wonderful. You camp amongst new growth Redwoods & most sights are quite nice affording some privacy. One drawback is no showers which would be nice. I do have 2 things that I found needs a little taking care of. First is that there's no showers. Second the restroom I used had overflowing trash & in the 5 days I spent at campground I did not see nor was it noticeable that they had been cleaned. I gave a 5 rating because the camp host & wife were fantastic. They were very courteous , sociable & helpful. They were attentive to people’s needs & desires! Giving me cause to overlook the minor issues. 

I recommend this campground & I wouldn’t hesitate to return!

Local gem in the redwoods

This is an amazing Grove of redwoods just north of Crescent City on the 101. There's about 50 campsites between the 10th spaces and RV spaces. This park seems to be overlooked by many. Not well advertise not good signage but just a left turn off the 101 northbound. There's only one full hookup spot in the campground. The other thing of major note is that this is such a thick Grove of redwoods that all of the roads through the campground are barely one lane wide and one way. We have a 30-foot travel trailer and it was very difficult to maneuver into or out of the full hookup spot. There are just two or three other spaces that will accommodate a good size rig. Most of the spots would not accommodate more than a 20 ft travel trailer and a vehicle. We really enjoyed this part very quiet and peaceful and towering redwoods! They had quite a few pathways for hiking throughout the small Park but the amazing history that the redwoods told us as we walked through was astounding! Very quiet, very peaceful, very dark and tall Forest. Cool in the shade of all of these Giants. There's also quite a large family Park area in the middle of the Grove with a playground and a large covered area with tables for a party or such. You really feel as if you're far from the world in the middle of this little Grove even though you're just next to the 101 highway. Please note when you make the left turn off the highway on to the (elk valley cross) Google maps will then instruct you to immediately make a left into the park which unfortunately is the one-way exit out of the park. Do not follow Google maps here. Continue past that exit road which has a bunch of wrong Way signs by the way, and continue to the next left (Cunningham Lane) which will take you around the side of the park to the proper entrance. If you like redwoods and shade and quiet this park is for you.

Adequate for an overnight stay

As spontaneous travelers, we tend not to reserve spots in advance and seek first come campgrounds which county parks tend to be. We don't need nor desire all the cozy amenities of "resort" campgrounds so county parks are some of our favorite places to stop if we aren't boondocking. Florence Keller ranks on the low end of the county parks we've stayed in but was good enough for an overnight stay. 

  • Easy access from main highway (road noise could be heard from certain sites)
  • Sites are best suited for small rigs (our 170 wheelbase class B van barely fit in the site) and they aren't incredibly level 
  • Little to no privacy between sites 
  • Nice small walking trails amongst old growth within campground 
  • Dog-friendly (leashed) 
  • 2 camp hosts on site but never saw them (that may be different during peak season) and the campsites were dirty. We had to pick up trash in the fire pit and around the site that was left behind by the previous occupants.
  • Sites near the playground can be overcome by joyful screaming of the kids during peak season. We were there off-season and it was tolerable. 
  • Very quiet at night-- road noise even tamped down (peak season may differ)
  • Pricey for what it is

This campground is well-loved and it shows. Be sure to go through all the loops. We almost missed the one we ended up in (by the playground) and it wasn't crowded and was quieter (at night when the playground wasn't being used) since it was away from the highway noise.

This is the spot you’re looking for

Traveling around the country and we’ve come to the end of our time in California . We stopped here for a quick overnight stay and ended up staying two days in our Promaster van. Absolutely beautiful and clean. You are literally surrounded by redwoods and Douglas Fur. Came in late May mid day and most spots open. You will love sleeping under the second growth forest trees. very magical. Some noise from road but not bad. Clean bathrooms no shower .

Beautiful but cramped

For a weekday, this place was still quiet full. We got pretty lucky and grabbed the first good looking spot we found when we pulled in. After registering and paying we realized there was another loop with even more sites that were somewhat more secluded and private. Drive past the playground, you'll find more sites there. 

Pros: 

1. The trails are super cool. Best part of the campground IMO 

2. The trees help create a cool environment in the summer, temperature wise. Good for car campers.

3. large picnic table

4. Good choice for families with kids who want to play/explore

Cons:

1. Kids running around and adults walking through your campsite

2. related to that, privacy. Even if groups stick to their site and the trails, there is still little privacy. Neighbor played a loud movie until late.

3. Again related, very small sites in most of the spaces

4. men's bathroom was out of order so my partner had to use the port-a-potty 

5. never met the host, but they had an unleashed dog that jumped at our small puppy (ultimately it wasn't aggressive but you don't know how a stranger's dog is going to behave. It was still a big dog vs. a little dog and a scenario that would not have occurred had the dog been properly leashed). Host site was also a bit of a mess with trash left out (both bagged and cans/bottle on table) overnight? Good camping etiquette wasn't really being modeled, both by host and other neighbors. 

Maybe we just had bad timing. I might try this campground again, but it is probably worth it to continue your search if you like more privacy and quiet.

Beautiful Redwoods

We came in late and all the surrounding campgrounds were full. There were plenty of spaces to choose from at this park. The sites are nestled under beautiful redwood trees and there are great hiking  trails throughout the grounds. It has a big playground  for the youngsters. There is only one bathroom with flush toilets and they could use some serious updates. It can be quite a hike to the facilities from some of the sites. It has some portable toilets but they had not been emptied in a while and were disgusting.

The park is perfectly located to visit the surrounding State parks and Crescent City is only a short drive away.

Late Night Stay

My friend and i were car camping and looking for a place to stay around the area that was free and everything felt a little bit unsafe. We ended up settling on this campsite for only $20 a night. You drive in and find an open spot (there are plenty!) and then pay cash. This spot was beautiful and we both felt incredibly safe. Only stayed one night but it was wonderful and would have loved to stay more nights if we had been able to! Would stay again!!

Beautiful Dense Redwoods

This county park is beautiful. 

You are surrounded by redwoods with very little sunshine so if you rely on solar this will be a problem. Sites are very clean, fairly level and of varying sizes. We were able to find a spot we fit in with our 26ft RV. I suggest driving around first before picking a spot as some are better than others.  Each site has a picnic table and a fire pit and there were water spigots throughout the park.

There is quite a bit of road noise and some construction noise during the day but quieted down at night. There seemed to be a lot of cars coming and going but overall few campers, we wondered if the day use area is a popular hangout spot for the locals. We didn't hear excessive noise though so not sure where everyone was headed.

The various nature trails in the campground were nice to stroll around in, and there was a small creek as well. There is a day use area with horseshoe pits, including horseshoes, and volleyball or badminton grass court with no net and a playground. 

While walking along one of the nature trails we noticed tires, hooks and such in the trees that were probably used as a ropes challenge course at some point. 

The downside was while walking around this park we saw one trailer that had their sewer line with no cap and a large bucket sitting underneath it to catch the waste, the hosts were blaring music while chopping wood and talking loudly, and there was a rundown camper just parked near the picnic area. These looked to be long term situations but since the sites are fairly secluded it did not bother us. There is one full hook up site for $30/night otherwise $20/night. Self pay, no reservations.

The campgound road was paved but narrow in spots and the paved parking spots at each site varied in length. Bigger rigs would have a problem in this park. It was overall nice and we would stay again. 

There are trash bins throughout cutely designed like tree stumps, but no recycling bins. Good cell reception with AT&T, Verizon and T-Moblie.

This is one of my favorite campsites I’ve ever been to! It’s GORGEOUS and so serene. There are little walking trails throughout the whole park which are awesome, saw many people taking their dogs for a walk. We visited in early December and the temperature was bearable but pretty cold throughout the day due to the complete lack of sunlight. Definitely more of a summer camp. There are bathrooms on-site, but no showers. Camp host was very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend this spot for visitors to Redwoods National Park!

The best campground 🌲

Planned a trip last minute and so we didn’t have any reservations for campgrounds within redwoods park. This ended up being so much nicer. It is first come first serve and the staff are super friendly. It’s in a new grove of redwoods but there are stumps of old grove redwoods near some of the campsites that are huge. We stayed in site 27 and it was perfect, had a trail right behind it with paths through the camp that are small but have streams running through them. Stayed at a roadside place about 10 minutes up the road the night before and once we saw this place we couldn’t believe we hadn’t kept driving.
