Little Basin Cabins and Campground — Big Basin Redwoods State Park
Reviewed Jul. 27, 2017

Awesome family campground

This is a perfect family friendly, large campground. It offers a variety of individual tent sites, a few tent cabins and group sites as well. We stayed at a few different sites several times and while close to each other, they are fairly private thanks to huge redwood trees everywhere (awesome for hanging a hammock too!) . The campground has multiple amenities including a small general store, a playground, lots of space to ride bikes or scooters and there are some guided junior ranger programs and events on the weekends.  It can get pretty crowded on the weekends during the summer months and there will be tons of kids running around everywhere. Weekdays and off season dates are much calmer. Mosquitos can be a nightmare!

Each site can fit up to 8 people, has a picnic table and a fire ring. All sites are fairly spacious and the trees give it a unique, really fun vibe. We particularly like sites 41, 42 and 43 that can be booked together for a larger group and all feature really cool burned tree trunks and stumps that provide endless hours of fun for the kids!

Note: alcohol is technically not allowed.
