Convenient but mostly permanent RVs here

It's a little rundown, but good enough at $50 a night. We were moved to a "premium" site after we discovered the water wasn't working in the whole area we were sent to. Showers available.

Words can’t describe

Wow. Don’t be fooled this is not the great place in the description. This place is very out dated. Don’t get me wrong it looked like a cool spot 30 years ago. The water is brown in your camp spot and at the motel. There are a lot of permanent residents and long term campers that have junked up there premium back ins. Dean’s was very quit but I don’t think I will return to this dump till they do a major overhaul!!!

Dean Creek Camping

Calling this place a resort is a bit of a stretch. But that is to be expected in the Humbolt Redwoods area of Northern California. After stopping in Garberville after a long day's motorcycle ride up the coast on the Pacific Coast Highway, we stumbled upon Dean Creek Resort. The staff was very friendly and the rate for a tent spot was fair. The resort has Motel style rooms, cabins, RV and tent spots. Situated at just south of the southern end of the Avenue of the Giants, this campground makes for a great basecamp for adventuring through the Redwoods. There were hot showers, flush toilets, even a pool. Overall this is a great little spot to visit in Northern CA.
