    Florence Keller Campground

    Very quiet place, tall pine trees, nice people.

    Very secluded area. People are friendly but quiet and like it that way. Very good spacing and brush/trees to keep you feeling alone.

    Trailer Lane Campground

    Ok Site

    Nice little campground just off the highway. We made reservations late in the day and arrived after dark. Email said to check “porch” for info but when we arrived it was not clear where to check in or find info. Not a big deal but we could not get bathroom codes til next day when another camper shared them.

    Keep in mind that its close to the highway and yes, road noise is quite loud. We turned on our fan and that blocked most of it. Fine stop for the night.

    Crescent City/Redwoods KOA

    Easy 101

    It is right off 101. We had easy pull through. Seems real quiet. Laundry being renovated. Bathhouse seems fine. Nice big grassy area towards the dog park. Nice for our dogs. So far so good.

    Mill Creek Campground — Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park

    Del Norte Coastal Redwood SP

    This area is beautiful and well worth a visit, but the campground needs some attention. 2 mile entrance road was paved but not in good condition. Site 42 was small for our 16’ft trailer and lots of mosquitoes in late summer. Campground is very wooded with lots of great hikes nearby.

    Aikens Creek Recreation Area

    Aikens Creek Dispersed

    Seems to have been a legit National Forrest campground that is no longer maintained. But it still has camp sites and a little further in there is dispersed very close to the river. It was secluded and great.

    middle fork smith river

    Middle Fork Smith River

    This is a cute spot and we stayed here for 3 nights. Plenty of space between the other campers (up to 5 one night). There is an overlook to the river at the dead end of the road and you can hear people enjoying that view but nothing that would really disturb you. There is a trail that leads straight down to the river! Plenty of room for swimming and fishing. Would definitely stay here again. It’s about a 15 min. drive to the Jedediah Redwoods, which if you haven’t seen…IT’S A MUST!! We dropped our trailer at the information center for the Redwoowds, visited in the forest for a few hours, picked up the trailer and came right back to this spot with no problems.

    Panther Flat Campground

    Lovely and Well Maintained

    Ihave an access pass bc I'm disabled and the very helpful host helped me get settled. Sites are level, clean, and close to bathrooms and showers. Though other campers are close, it feels private and safe.

    Patrick Creek Dispersed Camping

    Beautiful creek camping

    This little spot is such a gem. The reviews are correct in the fact that it can be a tight fit. My husband and I were the only camper here when we stayed so we didn’t experience that as a problem. It is a bit steep coming down but since we were the only ones we had plenty of room to back the camper where we wanted. The creek is absolutely clear, a bit chilly but stunning. I would definitely recommend this spot and would absolutely come back for another stay. If you miss this spot or it’s too full there are plenty of other dispersed campsites farther up. Might not be as much room for campers or splashing around in the river but you’ll still access to the river. We came late August.
