Wooded Campground with River Access

Campground is co-operated by State Park and National Park Service... therefore will receive National Park Access Pass discounts!  A lovely campground nestled in the redwoods with river access.  No hookups.  Restrooms have flush toilets.  Showers are also available.  Nice walking trails originate from the campground.  A small history center is onsite.  The amphitheater also has frequent ranger programs.  Sites also mostly level.  Would stay again.
