Took the family for two nights to experience camping in a small cabin. Each cabin has only two wooden beds but can sleep up to six people. We tried using air mattresses, but they made a lot of noise, so I recommend cushion pads instead. The family loved the small heater. As for the trails, they’re easy and about 1.5 hours round trip, with a beautiful forest to enjoy along the way.

Campground was 10/10 Extremely clean bathrooms! The camp host was amazing! We visited mid April and the river was thriving! It was about a 1 mile hike to the river.

Great campsite. Julie and Lorie are both goddesses (rangers) amongst the redwoods. Hot showers are great. Each campsite has a bear box and fire pit. We will definitely be back! P.S. turns out Sasquatch is a recluse and prefers to be left alone.

This is a great State Park hidden away in the Redwood Forest. There are some easy to more difficult hikes that take you through some of the last remaining Old Growth Redwoods. It is absolutely beautiful. There is even a trail that is wheelchair accessible. There are plenty of camping options including little cabins. The cost for a day pass is $8.00 per car. If there is no attendant you can pay using the honor system by the entrance. ** You can check out a State Park Pass from your local library also for free 😊

I love this place! It’s a small state park but it has so much going for it. -Large, spacious campgrounds. -Beautiful redwood trees, about 4 miles of easy family friendly hiking trails. -Wild Blackberries! I came mid August and had so much fun foraging for blackberries during my hike. -Quiet during the day -Nearby Gowen’s and Apple Farm (Cider tasting) -Campsites can be a little loud in the evening when all the families gather for dinner at their sites. Everyone is respectful of quiet hours though. -Bathrooms are a little old and no bathroom soap provided so bring your own. -Showers are coin operated (4 quarters for 5 min). Set a timer on your phone and make a game out of it 🙃 -You can get shower tokens and bundles of wood from the campsite host before 8pm. -BEWARE of poison oak. If you know how to identify it, you’ll be OK. Would definitely come back again.
