Beautiful 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!
