9. Mendocino Magic
3 Reviews•62 Photos•196 SavesBranscomb, CaliforniaWe are Mendocino Magic, an outdoor events destination and private campground. Formerly a 600 acre logging camp and then a commercial trout farm, the space has historically provided employment to a large part of the local community. As the commercial logging and fishing industries faded from prominence, the land has transitioned to becoming a recreational destination for those seeking connection with the outdoors.
Home to some of the best stargazing in Northern California, Mendocino Magic also features the pristine Holland Reservoir- the largest private water holding in the North Coast region. Miles of trails wind throughout mountainous hillsides and scenic valleys. These former logging era pathways now lead guests around ponds previously used for the trout farm, through manzanita groves, and madrone and oak forests, to numerous campsites, weekend getaway cabins, and furnished luxury canvas tents (glampsites).
Guests can enjoy a traditional campout, with the option to add high-end amenities. There are cabins and facilities on site to host and cater to large groups for private events, corporate retreats, weddings, workshops, and seminars.
Camping includes:
Central Camper’s Kitchen- gas grill, fire pit*, 800 square foot sound stage.
*weather permitting
Over 3 miles of hiking trails, porta potties, hot outdoor showers, private reservoir for swimming, kayaking and catch and release fishing, family and pet friendly camping, as well as adults only clothing optional areas.
We invite you to join us for your next unforgettable event.

Not Ready for the Public Camping But a Lot of Potential
On the positive side, the people that work there are very hospitable and friendly. We had reserved 2 days. But for $70 per day for 2 people (they charge by the person per day) there are not enough amenities and the grounds are not well kept. Check in is not until 4pm. First, there is no place to put garbage. You have to take it with you. Bathrooms are just blue porta-potties. There is a map of the property, but almost no signs on the property, so it's hard to know where you are in relation to the map. The campsites are numbered on the map, but not at the physical campsites. Although the property is in the mountains and there is a reservoir for swimming and boating, (a big plus), there are tools and equipment in various stages of disrepair at several places on the facility that are not screened from view of the camping areas. The RV hookup areas are too primitive compared to typical campsites. (again, the price is too much for what you get) There are canoes and kayaks available for use at the reservoir, (a very nice amenity) but various boating equipment litter the shores and spoil the views. I was told this facility caters mainly to group events, like weddings and there are nice glamping tents available. But it looked like they just didn't pick up after the last party. We left after one day.

Camping amongst giants
Amazing campground nestled amongst the heart of the Redwood Trees. Lots of shade throughout area but limited privacy due to proximity of sites and road noise. Bathhouse has water and basic shower amentities. Nice hiking trails to explore the Redwoods within walking distance of campground. Great location to explore the forest and access the rugged California coastline.

Humboldt County Fairgrounds
Nothing fancy, but convenient to Ferndale, and quiet
I stayed here twice for a total of eight days. Many long-term Residents give the place a seedy feeling. Ultimately it is safe and secure. And well managed. The bathroom is clean, heated, free showers and the combination is changed weekly. Large grassy area with good spacing between most RVs. I was in the middle of the campground for short term parking. Because of recent rains and some soggy areas I had to overnight campers close to me. 30 amp and 50 amp power and water at each side. The largest downside to this place is the RV dump station inside the fairgrounds. It’s the worst one that I’ve ever used. It needs to be completely rebuilt. No ultimately it did work. Great location to the picturesque town of Ferndale California. Also a convenient location for exploring the Lost Coast area. 12 miles away from Eureka California which has a Costco and Patriot gas station on the south end of town has a car wash that can accommodate RVs.

Dean Creek Resort
Dean Creek Camping
Calling this place a resort is a bit of a stretch. But that is to be expected in the Humbolt Redwoods area of Northern California. After stopping in Garberville after a long day's motorcycle ride up the coast on the Pacific Coast Highway, we stumbled upon Dean Creek Resort. The staff was very friendly and the rate for a tent spot was fair. The resort has Motel style rooms, cabins, RV and tent spots. Situated at just south of the southern end of the Avenue of the Giants, this campground makes for a great basecamp for adventuring through the Redwoods. There were hot showers, flush toilets, even a pool. Overall this is a great little spot to visit in Northern CA.

Grizzly Creek Redwoods State Park Campground
RV and Travel Trailers Beware
We stayed for one night as we were passing thru from Oregon to Central California.
Pros
- No cell service
- In the trees, very secluded
- Flush potties.
- Nice swimming hole, the water was warm in mid June. This seems to be the primary attraction for this area. Most of the families were gathered along the shore and playing in the water.
- Hiking straight out of the camp ground. But, it is a very steep trail, so make sure you bring a walking stick(s) and wear proper gear. This is also a heavy bear area, so pack your bear spray.
- Best for tent or car camping.
- Nice fire pits, wood for sale at office
- Fantastic place for kids… so many families with young children.
- The camp host and other campers were really friendly.
Cons
- Close to the road, we heard vehicles all night. We were in a hard sided camper two rows away from the road and could hear them inside. It’s got to be really loud for people closer and in tents.
- Tight spots and everyone is packed closely together (Check out the video).
- No electric, site water, dumping, or showers.
- Not suited for most RVs and travel trailers, you need to be very small and fully self contained. Our 19’ A-Line barely fit into our spot. The sites are close together, short, with roots coming up in the road and parking areas, and sharp angled turns to get into your spot. A lot of spot have over hanging tree limbs. We made it in our spot because our camper is super low profile during travel mode. Would not have been able to fit under the tree limbs with a normal camper.
- Hwy 36 from the 101 is very curvy with lots of narrow areas and very few turn offs.
- Not a good place for dogs, very few areas they are allowed other than your camp site. Upon arriving we receive a yellow sheet letting us know why our dog was a problem for wildlife in this area and all the reasons we should not bring him with us next time.
Over all, I this campground would be a fun place for families, wanting to disconnect from technology for a weekend of tent camping.

King Range Conservation Area
Rustic, quiet, very nice -- except during hunting season
This relatively remote and unknown BLM campground is a real find: gorgeous scenery on the coast a few minutes down the hill and not many other campers.
When we were there a few years ago, there was no water available because illegal pot growers had "poached" the park's water for their crops, forcing the BLM to shut down the water system.
The other problem was several parties of hunters using the campground as a base for the opening weekend of deer season, which we had not anticipated. If you do not like the sound of nearby rifle fire, avoid visiting this campground during hunting season.

Prime California coast
Took on the lost coast trail. From Mattole River to the black sand beach in Whitetorn town. Took 3 nights finished the 4th day. Overall it was nice but it does get old in the last day. The sand, wind and sun do grow on you. Beautiful scenery but it doesn’t change as much after all it is a beach trail. Watch out for rattlesnakes in the areas were you will camp. Saw several all over. Do your research before doing the trail. Tides, weather etc. It was an exciting trip over all

Campground Cove by the Ocean
A pay by the day and rangers will enforce. Dress in layers. Nestled in with large pieces of driftwood trees acting as berms between your campsite and the beach sand. Short walk to the ocean or mouth of the Mattole River. Seismic area, so the sand on the river is never the same if you go more than once a year. Bathrooms near the campground. No showers. No electricity. The starting point to hike the Lost Coast.

Pristine lost coast
Black sand beaches, cliffside camping, pristine wilderness and you have it all to yourself! Gorgeous hike, a little rough due to sand and rocks but we'll worth the effort. Very few people, even in summer! This is a must see.

Richardson Grove RV and Campground
Our annual 4th of July campsite
Been camping at Richardson Grove RV Park for the past 20+ years. It’s a large campground and great for large groups our group is usually about 60+ people :). Having the gas station right next to the campground is great since you ca. Go buy anything you need / run out of such as sodas and beer oh and ice also. During the July hot days we like to cross HWY 101 and go take a dip in the eel river. The campground has bathrooms and showers but over the years the maintenance have dropped

Dean Creek Resort
Words can’t describe
Wow. Don’t be fooled this is not the great place in the description. This place is very out dated. Don’t get me wrong it looked like a cool spot 30 years ago. The water is brown in your camp spot and at the motel. There are a lot of permanent residents and long term campers that have junked up there premium back ins. Dean’s was very quit but I don’t think I will return to this dump till they do a major overhaul!!!

Beautiful but needs TLC
We really enjoyed our campsite. It was private and level. We really enjoyed the play ground and all the outdoor games. The campground needs some updating/ TLC. We had a power outage and the bathroom plumbing was having some major issues.
Laura M.ScoutRedwoods River Resort & Campground
The river is the best
This place is a little outdated , the bathrooms and showers could be better , campsites are small and not much privacy ,the best part of this place is the river , it’s a steep walk down the hill to get there , but it’s totally worth it , if you go there I hope they don’t place you on 22 or 22a campsites , that’s where we were placed and luckily we were able to change it , number 1 and 2 are the best .

Westport Beach RV Park and Campground
A Very Pleasant Surprise
We rented a cabin here back in October. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and their check-in area/shop had everything you needed if you forgot it. Our cabin was a five minute walk to the beach, with closer spots for RV’ers and tent campers.
The camp spots were all beautiful, flowery and grassy, with trees overhead.
I would definitely go again!

Westport Beach RV Park and Campground
A nice surprise
I’m not an RV park person but this place was great! We stayed in our van in the tent area which was secluded, with a stream meandering through, and it was nearly deserted in April. Clean bathrooms, hot showers for quarters, and an outside sink for doing dishes. You walk through the RV section to get to the beach, which definitely had more of a party vibe, but the beach was beautiful. At $68/night it’s expensive for camping but overall a nice overnight stop on our way South.

All the ammenities!
We spent 4 nights here with our travel trailer. We had a site with full hook ups, including sewage (no need for dumping station!!). This is a great campground that is right on the beach! It has showers, flushing toilets, a little store, fire wood for sale, dish washing station, and even WiFi! The campground was very clean and really perfect for families! Couldn’t recommend more!

Campground on the beach
Almost every spot seemed to be pretty nice. Pull throughs seemed a little tight, but all back-ins were spacious. Very clean grounds. Clean bathrooms and the dish washing area was nice to get the big junks off your pans :). The beach is right there. You can see and or hear the waves crashing. Beautiful...will go again for sure.

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.

Fires on the beach.
Quiet in the off season. Fires on the beach are great. Rediscovered this place in February and have reservations for November. Only down side is if you make reservations in person, they don't guarantee you that spot.

Excellent stay!
The people were friendly I had a great spot on a little creek there was hardly anybody there we had the beach to ourselves it seemed. This place was clean a store with what you need and propane. It was well I will definitely come back. We saw at least seven steelhead salmon come up the river to spawn, breathtaking.
