This campground has full hookups, a. WiFi that is good enough to stream and it’s not a parking lot, good for tents and rv’s

I have frequented this RV campground several times over many years. It is sad to see it becoming run down. The once paved interior roads are now barely discernable dirt paths. They also have a fee for locking in your chosen campground site for an additional $35 fee?!?!? Once you have waited for a specific site/s to become available to reserve, under what circumstances would they deem it reasonable to move you to another site without your consent? I luckily did not (will not) pay the additional fee, and 90% of the campground was vacant the week I was there. That guaranteed reservation fee is just a scam to get more money out of you. The costs of the sites are not cheap to begin with.

I’m probably giving this an extra star for nostalgia. I camped here decades before, before it became a more modern campsite, and it was formative. I’d suggest LATE summer, like August, or better yet, after Labor Day. It’s the warmest, nicest time. Or when the Elk are in mating season! LOL. Or spring, when the Lupin arrives. There are also INCREDIBLE day trips into California’s interior, Indian history, little known parks and trails everywhere. Bring all the yummy foods you want… you’re not going to be near a grocery store. Feel a side of California few know about.

Great little park. Lots of shade and green grass, good management, Clean restrooms and well kept grounds. Close to river and lakes for boating and fishing. There is a great area for tent camping or a place to dry camp with your RV just below the main RV park. There are targets set up for bow hunters in the pines below the park.
Our 35 foot fifth wheel easily navigated the space.
GuideI don't have a lot to add beyond what has been said by others. This campground is about the location. It is nestled right in the state park w/old growth redwood trees and hikes accessible directly from the campground.
However, it is very tight, which is difficult for anyone with a larger trailer. The facilities are showing their ages as well. The showers were in decent shape, but the bathrooms could use some work.
It is still the best campground for exploring the park though. And the negatives should not turn you away.
TravelerLarge space with tons of camp sites. I took camp spot 28 and had plenty of space behind me and around me. Tons of rules here, but can tell the camp ground is well maintained and nothing unreasonable. Friendly staff, shoutout to Fernanda 🤙🏽

I started my journey up at Shasta lake, but was driven out by bees. I sought several other locations but decided Trinity was a worthwhile shot. I quickly made an online reservation, paid the holding fee, got there 4 hours early because I needed to just land instead of driving aimlessly, and the staff was so accommodating! They allowed me to stay in the parking lot while my site was being prepared, and they even let me in an hour and half earlier than check in! My spot was easy and accessible, close to bathrooms and showers, near the front store which had everything I needed, including coffee, a short walk to the lake, and a view of stars you don’t see very often. I came for solitude, but found comfort in neighbors who have a mutual love and respect for these great outdoors. I even shared a meal with my neighbor! This is an incredible place and very well maintained grounds. Staff are driving around quite literally into the night hours keeping things clean. Thanks Trinity KAO Holiday! I will be seeing you again!
TravelerWe loved this campground. It's proximity to many trails with beautiful Redwoods was amazing. Some sites were in the prairie as opposed to nestled in the Sitka Spruce trees, so that's something to take into consideration. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Showers were about $1.00 and took quarters. We had site 62 and think we got the best site in the park. It was a drive through site however there are two tight trees that you would struggle to get a larger RV through on the road to get there. It had enough room for 2 large tents and two trucks. It also has a secret tent pad behind the driveway in the trees!
GuideVery quiet, but tight campground in the Redwood National Forest. We enjoyed proximity to trails and other parks, along with the ranger talks each night. Sadly, the facilities aka the bathrooms are badly degraded and need to be updated. They don’t charge entrance fees for the park, rangers can explain why if you ask. I think this should be changed so they can afford to install new bathrooms. A lot of sites were supposedly reserved but no one present for days. Host are able to forfeit their reservations if they don’t show up by te second day, but it seems like they were very relaxed about this. Many sites were empty but the campground was listed as full. I suspect problem book for the weekend and just show up late, which is not fair for those who would have liked to visit.
LegendVery large park. Does not look like any money has been invested in a long time. Lots of amenities but poor condition. 3 star because of full hookups. Worst marked loops ever.
Guide
Well managed KOA.
ScoutThe only reason i did not give this a 5 star is the outdated information and no notifications posted of events or schedules. The don't have a schedule for the theater, it's just random and at the employees discretion from my understanding. At the splash zone the paperwork was outdated, and had rules for a dock that doesn't exist. The shower code didn't work. They advertise a shower near the day use area and there isn't.
GuideThis was tied for my favorite redwoods campsite. We stayed for 1 night in march and it was almost entirely booked so I would reserve a spot. It was a little buggy in the woods but not too bad. The prairie itself was really beautiful especially at dusk. The surrounding woods is exactly what you look for when going to redwoods.
GuideWe stayed here twice on a trip from central California to Washington. All of the staff was friendly and super helpful. The campsite was very clean and quiet. Beautiful scenery and easy to get to.
TravelerPerfect spot right by so many incredible hikes. The campground is secluded and you aren’t on top of everyone which is nice.
ScoutWe just stayed in October 2023 and had the most peaceful time we could imagine. Very quiet, not too crowded this time of year, and absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait to come in the spring / early summer.
LegendGeneral: There are tent sites, partial hookups, and full hookup sites, as well as cabins and cabooses that can accommodate either couples or families. It was pouring when we were there, so we opted to stay in a caboose! There is also a dining car
Site Quality: The camping sites are nestled among the trees; some are pull-throughs and others are back-in (mostly the tent sites). Most of the sites appeared level, but not all of them (beware of Site 34). The pull-throughs in the center are less private (but I believe these are the ones with full hookups). The best sites in my opinion are the ones that back up to Little Castle Creek. Especially after a good rain, you can be lulled to sleep by the sound of the rushing creek!
Bathhouse: Keypad entry so I was not able to see the inside (we stayed in a caboose and therefore did not have entry). There are showers and also a very nice laundry facility.
Activities: There is a pool in season and also a hot tub that was open when we were there. It is covered but it was cold and rainy, so we didn’t try it out. There is a short hike at nearby Hedge Creek Falls and you are close to Mount Shasta.
We stayed here 25 years ago in a caboose with our daughters, and it was nice to see the place has been kept up nicely. We would definitely return and stay in the campground next time (weather permitting).
GuideWe highly recommend this campground as they have all the amenities…a general store, boat rental, cabin rental, activities for the kiddos, a dog park and pub. Water, toilets and showers are readily available, though a bit in need of a good coat of paint and showers need cleaning/updating .
Scout
This place has the tightest spots ever! Feel like a sardine. It’s pretty but would never spend $80 to smash in with other campers!
ScoutThis campground was the favorite of the trip. The tent sites are well spaced, the check-in process was quick and you got to speak to someone to get a map and ask any questions too. The store had everything you could've possibly forgotten, along with soft serve ice cream. The bar/restaurant had live music until 10pm. The lake and marina was a short walk. And the campground was located near the cutest downtown area of Mount Shasta. If you want dinner in town, check out Yak's for the best burger ever! This resort is great for groups, saw a lot of groups that were there for at least a week. Lots of bear activity warnings, but I didn't have any issues. Bathrooms and showers were pretty clean, nice and hot with good water pressure. Would absolutely stay here again!
Scout
This campground is very spacious with lots of trees for shade which was great since we I went when it was extremely hot. The owner was very nice and got us situated right away. I will definitely be coming back!
TravelerI can't rate on even being able to stay but simply based on a phone call. We had filled out their form on their website to try and book and they never responded back. We tried calling and the gentleman was very rude. He said long sites werent available which I get. But when we asked for a shorter site and a spot to park our car hauler he wouldnt even look. He had the adaucity to say well your a few weeks put Reservations change check back. I get if you dont have anything available but he didn't even look. This guy definitely doesnt want business.
TravelerPretty nice campground with a fire pit and picnic table. very spacious and private lots of room away from other campers. Bathrooms were good and had a shower. Camp host was nice he sold us some fire wood. Only reason i did not give it 5 stars was the surrounding area and town. Not much out there at all and run down town. I would stay here again.
TravelerSecond time here. My wife and I love the location. We enjoy how close this campground is to area attractions and the staff here are very kind. I think we are going to make this a yearly trip!
ScoutMy friend and I stayed here on our bike tour from Seattle to San Diego in 2019 and it was great. We stayed at a hiker/biker site under a tree. There were elk and lupins all over the prairie—it was so beautiful! I highly recommend.
ScoutWe saw the sign on the highway for this campground and stopped. The owner recently acquired the plot and has been putting work into it since then. It was a great spot to stop, close to the national park, river access as well and reasonably priced. For a tent site, it was $38/night. Bathrooms were clean, showers worked well and the overall space was clean
GuideWe stayed two separate nights here and loved it. Staff was excellent. It was quiet and clean. We had to move during our first stay because we were two close to the brook with our small kiddos. Only downside was dumping. Both spots we had were uphill from our trailer which required a bit more work to drain. Amazing spot and would 100% stay here again.
