About
National Forest
Six Rivers National Forest
Overview
Pearch Creek Campground lies just north of the small town of Orleans in the Klamath river valley of the Six Rivers National Forest. Lush foliage provides welcome shade and relative privacy for each of the campground's sites.
Recreation
Salmon and steelhead fishing in the nearby Klamath River is considered some of the best in northern California. Both Kalamath and Salmon Rivers are popular destinations for whitewater rafting, swimming and kayaking. Both are within a short drive.
Facilities
The campground offers several single-family campsites, suitable for both tent and RV-style camping. Each site has picnic tables and campfire rings with grills. Many have rock camp stoves as well. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided.
Natural Features
The campground is located in a mature Douglas fir and hardwood forest. The sound of nearby Pearch Creek can be heard from most sites and the campground remains shady and cool during hot summer days. Moss-covered rocks and tree trunks add to the cooling atmosphere of Pearch Creek.

GuideSuper nice camphosts
Nice site that are a little too close together, but that seems the norm in California. The camp hosts were so amazingly nice. Even gave me wood for a fire to keep the mosquitos at bay. Great place to cool off with the river near the sites and plenty of pools to splash in. The best spot is at the end of the loop behind the gated area. If it's closed ask the hosts and they might open it.
ScoutGreat quiet place
I stopped for a night on a trip to the coast. Camp host were very nice and I had the entire place to myself.
TravelerBeautiful and secluded, challenging access to redwoods national park
This campsite is in a big stand of redwoods, which are beautiful and keep it cool, but not cold. There was only one other party there when I stayed, plus the campground hosts who were extremely kind and helpful. The drive in through Six Rivers National Forest was stunning with winding roads along a light blue river through pine-covered mountains.
The only downsides to this campsite were: 1) no service whatsoever, not even in town and 2) the road to get to redwoods national park is pretty remote, with a ~5 mile unpaved stretch with lots of potholes. If you're trying to find an inexpensive place to stay away from the hustle of 101, this is perfect!
