Jedidiah Smith Campground — Redwood National Park
Reviewed May. 22, 2021

An awesome cathedral

We're an ecologist and filmmaker who have lived overseas much of our life, and are still learning how to 'do' the van life, so felt privileged to get a beautiful, spacious walk-in site before dusk, just on the off-chance. The young and friendly staff on duty at the entrance at the time made us feel really welcome.  We were given a huge and very clean ADA site, though we did not need this.   If you seek a reverent time of tranquility and humility among giant redwoods, this is an outstanding, beautifully kept campground which manages to keep a deeply spiritual and tranquil air despite its size.  Showers and restrooms were open in mid-late May.  We appreciated the ecologically mindful management of the park, with its bear lockers, crumb-free campsite guidance and educational signage, recycling facilities and ethos of quiet, respectful usage.   Thank you everyone.
