Best Cabin Camping near Seiad Valley, CA

I have stayed at Jedediah Redwoods 3 times, and each time I find something new to appreciate. The campground itself is one of the most well kept I have been to. I have stayed in both the campsites tent camping and in one of the cabins. The campground is located right next to the river, great for taking a stroll down after dinner or early in the morning. Not the most private campsite but the stunning river, great trails, and amazing location far outweigh that. 

I recommend taking the waterfall trail, some of the largest redwoods I have ever seen were on that trail and it was incredibly peaceful. You must spend some time sitting next to the Smith river, it is bright blue and there is a trail that hugs it with many access points. 

The cabins were extremely nice. They have a little electric fire place heater that heats up the cabin nicely, and this cabin easily fits 6. Quite spacious, as well as convenient counter space. I would highly recommend!

We camped in our van for $25 per night. Tent and car camping available. There are RV hookups too. Some small cabins and yurt structures for rent too. On site showers and bathrooms. Developed hot pool for day use, with a discount of you are staying there overnight. Sauna and steam room available. An amazing peaceful place to be just outside of Ashland.

Gorgeous state park& campground in the land of the redwoods. Spacious campsites, a few cabins, clean restrooms, and access to trails in the state park. Highly recommend camping here! You can walk to the Stout Memorial Grove directly from camp via the summer footbridge. For a longer hike I recommend hiking to the Grove of Titans via the Mill Creek trail.

This RV Resort has tent sites, RV sites, Yurt, 2 Cabin appartments to rent for vacations. The park has basketball court, recreational room with pool table, TV with cable, books and board games, laundry room $1.25 to wash & $.25 to dry, rest rooms and showers $0.50 a token for 6 minutes of hot water. Come see for yourself, enjoy the Redwoods and about 15 to 25 minutes to town of Crescent City and ocean. Smith River is close by as well.

This is a great spot for larger families. We stayed in the group site as well as an individual site (different time).

The group site was great! We were far enough away from other campers that our large family did not disturb, but still close enough to the front station for any help needed from rangers.

There are tons of acitivites in the campground; trails, floating down the river, night time story hour and bon fire, as well as outside of the campground: Redwood Edventures for kids, Trees of Mystery, or a short drive out to the coast.

There are plenty of restrooms and showers. Firewood is available to purchase. There are animal proof trash cans and food storage container.

Great for tent campers, RV/ trailers and cabins are available for rent.

When we stayed: Mid-May, Monday-Friday

Overall Experience: a beautiful park that's undergoing improvements but I would not go back.

Camp Sites: the whole park is forrested and very beautiful - they have cabins, tent sites and RV sites. We reserved in advance but got a tiny site right across from the bathrooms, laundry, and office so there was little privacy and barely any space in the site. We asked to move to a different site but they said they were either reserved for others or under repair. The park seemed about half empty so not sure why we couldn't move to a bigger site. Many of the other sites were more secluded and a bit larger, so maybe we were just unlucky.

A Couple Disappointments: their website claimed there were walking trails and off-leash dog walking trails. The 3 people in the office didn't even know these trails existed and when we found the trails, they were super short, basically just a quick walk behind all the camp sites. Also there was a ton of construction starting at 9am Tuesday morning re-doing the gravel road around the park.

Location: it's right on hwy 101 so lots of traffic noise. Also, super close to Jedidiah Smith Redwoods State Park for beautiful hiking and old growth redwoods. The campground is also across the street from the local prison...

Bathrooms: clean and large, good hot showers.

We went on a road trip out west with no plans. We were planning on just winging it the whole trip so the last two nights we considered staying in a hotel but wanted to stop at Jedediah to see if their was anything open. Sure enough it was widely available. We found site 104 which was absolutely gorgeous and huge. Situated between large Redwoods it was an absolute beautiful retreat. Seeing as it was a bit of an off peak season the campground was very quiet. Perfect for a relaxing getaway.

Privacy, amenities, comfort, Redwoods.. truly a crown jewel of Northern California camping. Reservations long in advance needed.

Beautiful and secluded. We felt like we were a million miles away from everyone, even our camp neighbors! The giant redwoods provide a lot of privacy and gorgeous surroundings, you feel like you're in your own private wilderness. There were plenty of warnings about keeping food put away to avoid attracting bears, but that's to be expected for most places in California.

The park and campgrounds are managed by both the state of California and the NPS. If you have a national senior pass you can get a 50% discount because it is comanaged by the NPS. California doesn’t offer any decent senior discounts. The campground is awesome. I am normally not a big fan of heavily wooded campgrounds because I heavily dependent on Starlink for connectivity to the outside world. However, I was able to get an amazing site down by the river and was able to run Dishy out near the river bank and got a great connection. There is a short nature walk(about 1.5 miles) that leads through a breathtaking stand of redwoods that are enormous and 1,000s of years old. Of course, being a national and CA state park there are no hookups. I only saw one bathroom serving a very large area and it was a bit of a hike to get to. I would rate the bathroom a B. There is no hand soap so bring your own! Normally I would rate this a 4 because of lake of amenities but it gets a 5.

Beautiful RV park nestled in the California redwoods. 1 mile away from Trees of Mystery. Full hook ups for Rv's, tent camping area as well. The family won't get bored here! They have hiking trails, horseshoes and an adorable little 18 hole mini golf course to boot! Just a mile down the road is Trees of Mystery, a few miles the other direction is a casino, jet boat rides up the Klamath River , scenic drives abound including an elk reserve, and it's approximately 25 minutes to the coast. Wonderful little general store and the nicest couple who run the park.

This campground must be the “first camp out” for so many Northern California kids, at least of my generation. It was the first time my family drove for HOURS (“are we there yet?” And then the result was spectacular. The river vibe, the rope swing, the ancient redwoods, the dappled sunlight, the bbq. And yes, there’s a store nearby in the middle of nowhere to pick up whatever you need. 

It really is family-lovely. Your kids will make friends with the others. If you can plan an extended stay, do it!

Recently, I just drove around the grounds, on my way back to SF, just for fun, and I thought, wow, I’m ready to experience this place as a childless oldster. I want to bird my ass off. I want to go offseason. All of it!

Ashley here with The Dyrt. We're so excited to welcome Jodie to our platform. This location is a labor of love and such a unique experience! This area offers ponds, catch & release fish. Come and book your stay and leave them some love here!

Owner is super friendly and chill. Gave us a site backed-in to the river. He also pointed to the direction where we can see Neowise comet (he was spot on!)...restrooms are clean. WiFi works but a bit spotty at times. Our kids enjoyed the river and used the park’s kayaks and paddle boards (for free!). We will def be back when we are around the area.
