7 campgrounds with availability next weekend
Several cabin options near Fort Dick provide comfortable, sheltered accommodations in the coastal redwood region. Alfred A. Loeb State Park offers cabins with river views and furnished amenities, while Redwood Meadows RV Resort features cabin apartments with kitchen facilities and proximity to Smith River. "The front porch provided a fabulous view to the Chetco River. If you fish and don't have a trailer or camper these cabins are perfect," noted one visitor about the Loeb State Park cabins. Jedidiah Smith Campground in Redwood National Park provides rustic cabins with basic furnishings in a setting surrounded by ancient redwoods.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Most cabins require advance reservations, especially during summer months when occupancy rates are highest. Pet policies vary significantly between properties—Alfred A. Loeb State Park cabins are noted in reviews as not allowing pets, while other properties may accommodate animals with additional fees. Cabins at Harris Beach State Park include three pet-friendly yurt options. A camper mentioned that "One thing I found weird was the yurt only had a code and no key, we found it frustrating using a code to go in and out every time."
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from basic fire rings with outdoor cooking areas to more equipped setups with refrigerators and microwaves. On-site camp stores at locations like Mystic Forest RV Park and Redwood Meadows provide basic supplies and firewood. Cabins at Village Camper Inn RV Park and Ramblin' Redwoods Campground include picnic tables and fire pits for outdoor meal preparation. Proximity to Crescent City (approximately 15-25 minutes from most cabins) allows access to larger grocery stores and supplies.
"Coin operated hot showers for $0.50 to start the shower for 2 min, $0.25 to add minutes up to a 12 min max. Each campsite had a fire ring, a picnic table, and a bearbox."
"It is pet friendly and has a good system of paths through the campsites but still affords privacy."

Clean, beautiful views, close to 101 and Brookings
as a tent camper, this campground was awesome. i was in spot D5-2 which was an awesome section to be in. the spots were huge, right next to the path to go to the water, and close to the bathrooms. super clean, hear the waves all night, ride your bike into town or to the day use beach spots. best campground i’ve ever stayed at!
This camp ground is very well organized. They sent me many text messages confirming the reservation. And asking if we needed anything. The lady at the front desk was very helpful. Clean facilities. Highly recommend.
Parking spots are large enough for two vehicles and ground area provided more than enough space for our two tents. Showers and bathrooms are nice. The site is just a few minutes walk away from a beautiful beach with awesome sunsets.
However, the site is right next to a road and is incredibly loud at night. If you are in a tent, you will either need to be a very heavy sleeper or have earplugs to have any hope of getting some sleep. Unfortunately, the road noise made this site almost impossible to enjoy (at least at night).
Paved streets and sites. Good restrooms with sinks and flush toilets. Hot showers included in price. Most sites close to level. Nice trails for ocean and sunset views. Loop D close to 101 freeway... can hear traffic beginning around 5:30am. Opted not to use earplugs. Reserve online. Would stay again.
The only good things are the location and site sizes. We stayed for one night and there was traffic noise all night long. There are hookups but the water was nasty. We regrettably topped off our fresh tank just to have to dump it at our next stop and sanitize our system.
Wonderful location with just a short walk to the beach. Campsites are fairly close together and on this Friday night, things were crowded and a bit noisy. Still, the sites were very good and had picnic tables, fire rings, and very clean bathrooms and showers. Great time!
The owner and his family are very easy going and kind. The camp facilities are in need of upgrades but everything seems to work and. Is clean. The parking spaces are level but could benefit from some gravel because the area is very wet. And the spots are rather close together. We had fun picking black berries right from our spot. There is a nice games room that even had a pool table. There was also a sweet mini golf area.
Nice place, easy check in, close to jetty

Redwood hiking trails: Multiple short trails connect directly from Ramblin' Redwoods Campground to surrounding forest areas. A visitor mentioned, "There are couple great trails through Redwoods. We were there during COVID and forest fires so most activities were closed."

Horseback riding excursions: Some cabins provide access to guided trail rides. A reviewer at Redwood Meadows mentioned: "We drove Howland hill road and did short hikes and did a horseback ride up into the redwoods with Crescent Trail rides."
Private cabin settings: Many cabins offer seclusion despite proximity to facilities. At Mystic Forest RV Park, a guest noted: "We had spot #7 and it was tucked in some redwood. The owners were friendly and helpful. Had maps to several spots near by to check out."
River views: Cabins with water views rank consistently high in reviews. At Alfred A. Loeb State Park, a camper appreciated that "The front porch provided a fabulous view to the Chetco River.

Reservation timing considerations: Securing cabin reservations requires advance planning. A visitor to Jedidiah Smith Campground mentioned: "This campground is a very popular spot, located on the north side of the Redwoods National and State Parks. The sites are decently sized, accommodating two to three tents, but the roads would be tough to navigate in a large RV or with a long trailer."
Shower facilities vary widely: Some locations offer free showers while others charge. A camper at Jedidiah Smith noted: "Heated, tile bathrooms with hot water and coin-op showers (25 cents a minute) are a luxury."
