    Great family stop

    We stopped through while passing Eureka on our way north and we’re so happy that we did! The cabins are cute and charming (be prepared, no kitchen) and the grounds clean.

    Richardson Grove State Park Campground

    Awesome Camping among the Redwoods

    This State Park is awesome to experience camping in the dense redwoods. They have flush toilets and showers available which were nice and well maintained. We went in the beginning of May and the mosquitos were out in abundance. The young lady manning the entrance kiosk was very nice and allowed us to check out the sites in advance of deciding whether to stay or not. Each site had a fire pit, picnic table and bear cabinet. No reservations were required and was first come first served on a wednesday afternoon in May. We stayed only one night and was worth the $35. Very nice park.

    Richardson Grove State Park Campground

    Beautiful grounds

    You're literally in the Redwoods. They provide a picnic table, fire pit and food storage boxes. The restrooms were okay, I didn't bother with the showers which were coin operated. My only real complaint is that for a state park, the fee was pretty high.

    Westport Beach RV Park and Campground

    Great beach access.

    We were lucky to get a site right next to the beach for our class B RV. This is a beautiful site along Highway 1.

    PS if this site is full, there is a dry camp about a mile north on Highway one. It is right next to the remains of old Highway One and it’s called Oyster Point. It is a rustic grass lot with space between sites, but not much privacy.. There are picnic tables and fire rings. A couple of pit toilets are located around the site. There are about 45 campsites here. Sites here are on a first come basis and self registering. The photos included here are for oyster point.

    Clean

    Pros: Clean campsites spaced apart reasonably with picnic tables and fire pits. Clean bathrooms. Beautiful redwoods.

    Cons: no dogs allowed on the walking trails. $35 for a tent site is a lot but I’m coming to realize that’s pretty much what it costs in California. Firewood is $10.

    Burlington Campground — Humboldt Redwoods State Park

    Beautiful, serene, cool

    Gorgeous campground in the Redwoods. We have stayed here twice. Once in March and once in July. The shade from the redwoods makes this a cool haven from the hot California summers. Campsites are mostly shaded. Campsites are large with good fire pits and picnic tables. Lots of redwood stumps for the kids to play on. If you plan to hang your hammock, bring extra rope as the trees are SO BIG that regular hammock ropes won't reach around the trees. Spent several afternoons reading in the shade of the redwoods in our hammock with a blanket on top of us. Even the 13-year-old boy fell asleep reading in the hammock. Short walk to a beautiful swimming hole when the sun warmed things up in the afternoon. The closest store is okay for snacks and essentials but not much else. No real restaurants nearby. Be sure to have your cooler fully packed and bring your meals with you. Clean restrooms with coin operated hot showers. Water spigots close by to campsites.

    Burlington Campground — Humboldt Redwoods State Park

    Lovely Camping

    We came here in early October 2020 for a Friday - Monday trip. The campsite is large and spots are spaced out. Due to COVID a lot of sites were closed, which made everything feel very spaced out.

    The area is beautiful. The campsite it self has tons of beautiful redwoods and ferns on the property. It was beautiful to just sit and admire the scenery.

    Bathrooms and showers were clean and the campsites were across the street from some short but beautiful hikes.

    The visitor center was closed but right next door. The area to check in did sell wood and we noticed a lot of staff throughout our trip.

    The campsite was super quite and very peaceful.

    We brought our dog which was great. Lots of trees and lots of shade. I think almost every site was shaded. Bring your hammocks because there was plenty of locations on each site to set them up. I would be aware that many of the upper sites are on a slope.

    Each site came equipped with a fire ring/grill, picnic table and bear box.

    We had the best time and went a little ways up north to go fishing outside of Fortuna. We actually caught a fish this time :) Fishing near the campsite was not recommended due to the low water level. However, their were plenty of options just a short drive away.

    We stayed at site #35 which was large but had a slope. However, we were able to find two kind of flat spots to put tents and it was totally fine.

    Burlington Campground — Humboldt Redwoods State Park

    Breath taking campground in the avenue of the giants

    My partner and I stayed at the Burlington campground in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in March and could not have had a better experience. We were able to get a first come first serve site without much difficulty (we were very concerned about this as we were driving up from San Francisco). Our site was nestled amongst historic, giant redwoods in the heart of the avenue of giants. The site its self was clean and came with a fire pit, picnic table, and bear locker. Staff was helpful and accommodating. There are several breathtaking trails that connect to the campground and others close by car. We can't wait to go back!

    Richardson Grove State Park Campground

    Great camp ground surrounded by sequias

    Camp provides showers, bathrooms, water, trash/recycling, fire rings and benches. The spots are very large. They take reservations as drive up day of (if they have space). It’s a little pricy but hey, it’s a state park.


Guide to Phillipsville

Cabin camping near Phillipsville, California offers easy access to the Eel River and Avenue of the Giants, where temperatures range from 50-90°F depending on season. The area sits at approximately 300 feet elevation within Humboldt County's redwood region. Most cabins in this area require advance booking, with peak season running from May through September when river activities are most accessible.

What to do

River access at multiple locations: Many campgrounds provide paths to the Eel River for swimming and fishing during summer months. At Giant Redwoods RV & Cabin Destination, "Our site backed up to the Eel river with Giants redwoods everywhere. The grounds were super clean and quiet. Just hung out at the beach the whole time," notes Randy J.

Redwood hiking nearby: Several short trails begin directly from cabin areas. At Burlington Campground — Humboldt Redwoods State Park, visitors appreciate the convenient location: "Walking distance to the visitor center and other great hikes. Dog-friendly, clean restrooms/coin showers, and relatively private sites - some more than others," according to Laura S.

Local activities beyond the cabins: Some properties maintain recreation facilities for guest use. "The park itself is small, sites are tight but clean & well maintained. River access with swimming hole. Very close to Avenue of the Giants," reports Margie C. about Giant Redwoods. Volleyball courts and horseshoe pits are available at select locations.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Many cabins provide access to well-maintained bathrooms with hot water. At Richardson Grove State Park Campground, "Clean campsites spaced apart reasonably with picnic tables and fire pits. Clean bathrooms. Beautiful redwoods," writes Ross F.

Natural setting: The proximity to redwoods creates a unique cabin camping experience. "The Madrone Campground in Richardson Grove State Park does not disappoint. Nestled in the redwoods along Hwy 101, this campground had everything I could want with lots of beautiful surroundings to explore," according to Nathan P.

Pet-friendly options: Many cabins allow dogs, though with varying restrictions. At Burlington Campground, "Dark forest covered campsites with some privacy. We usually camp off season and this has kept campsites on the quiet side at night," notes Katherine T.

What you should know

Seasonal water levels: The Eel River fluctuates dramatically throughout the year. "Water level was not that much when we had visited," mentions Nirav about Giant Redwoods. During late summer, river access points may be limited.

Varying site privacy: Cabin locations differ in their proximity to other campers. "The campsites here are enormous and provide plenty of separation from fellow campers. There are many close hikes and swimming in the nearby Eel river. There is noise from the highway," notes Jessica B. about Richardson Grove RV and Campground.

Reservation importance: Many properties fill quickly, especially during summer weekends. "We stayed one night on a trip down the 101... We rolled in on a Friday evening and there were tons of spots available," reports Jessica D., though this experience is uncommon during peak season.

Tips for camping with families

Visitor center activities: Educational programs are offered regularly during summer. "It's walking distance to the ranger station/visitor center and just a few minutes away from Miranda, where you can pick up some last minute supplies," explains April H. about Burlington Campground.

Playground access: Some properties maintain play areas for children. At Redwoods River Resort & Campground, "We really enjoyed the play ground and all the outdoor games. The campground needs some updating/TLC," reports Missi.

Safety considerations: River access often involves steep trails unsuitable for very young children. "It's a steep walk down the hill to get there, but it's totally worth it," warns Laura M. about Redwoods River Resort's river access.

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategy: Choose locations away from highway noise when possible. "We stayed in a pull-through for the weekend. The park itself is small, sites are tight but clean & well maintained," notes Margie C. about Giant Redwoods.

Utility connections: Water quality varies between properties. At Redcrest Resort, "Sites are tight and not level side to side. But clean and adequate with FHU. Also showers if needed," reports Mary F.

Maneuverability challenges: Some properties have limited turning space for larger rigs. "The sites are very close together but nice and shady. Great to have the visitor center next door to help you explore the park," mentions Marcus K. about Burlington Campground.
