We stay in the cabins for the space. Better than hotel rooms by far! Very quite clean friendly grounds, cabin was warm and ready for us. I loved the full ice trays nice touch! Hosts were very accommodating to our situation. Supper cool peps! Hoppy Easter 🐣 Thank you 😍

Fanatic place to camp! Easy to get our 28 Foot trailer in. Full hookups. Close to town! Very nice people who run it. Located just off the Hwy among the Redwoods. Each site allows privacy. Also a playground for kids and showers!!

Stayed here for 3 days in October in our 38 foot skoolie. It wasn't full, so it was fairly quiet minus the road noise since its off of 101. Feels cozy because of all the trees. They had restrooms with showers. Showers didn't cost extra to use. Laundry room was nice, as well. $1.50 per load when we were there. It's the cheapest we had seen yet, as the RV park we went to before it was $4.00 per load. So definitely do your laundry here. They also have wifi, but we didn't need it as our AT&T signal was really good. We also have T-Mobile and that was decent, as well. Definitely recommend this place for RV camping.

I am very surprised to see so many negative reviews, as we have stayed here several times throughout the last few years and have not had one issue. We are currently staying here as I write this. We love this campground for the following reasons: ●Well maintained and clean sites ●Spacious sites- 092 is our favorite for how spacious it is and the only one we book for this reason. Other sites appear to be spacious as well. ●Very nice play area for kids ●Very quiet even with being closer to road. ●Love and respect the 5 mph speed limit ●At least they admit and make you aware of theft issues. Just lock up your stuff and you will be fine. Haven't been to a single campground that does not have this issue ●Professional communication- received an email about a small refund I was due ●Great jumping off point to Crescent City, Brookings, Trees of Mystery, and state parks We have noticed the amount of work and upkeep the staff has done throughout the past few years. We love the new signs, removing of older trailers, the gravel to fill a hole that was in our spot, trimming of the gorgeous trees, and sprucing up of the permanent residences. You can clearly see the effort they have made to make this a very inviting place. Yes, there are some permanent residences, I'm assuming hosts and staff, but they are very nicely kept. I have not been to a single campground that does not have staff living on the grounds, so I can't understand those comments. We will defintely be back next camping season! P.S. Why do people complain about updating? If the toilet flushes and clean water comes out of the shower, then no updating necessary. If you want updated then pay twice to three times the price somewhere else. If you want state park prices, stay at a state park. We have stayed at places with way smaller spaces and no amenities (playground, cable, wifi) and paid a lot more. It's useless complaining about things that can't be changed and wouldn't really affect your stay if they were.

Beautiful campground in a redwood forest. Campsites are spacious with everything you need. Bathrooms and showers are amazingly clean. Camp hosts were very accommodating for a last minute change in our stay. We would totally come back and stay here again.

We stayed one week in our 5th wheel in October. We initially were disappointed in our site as it was more in the open (#18) instead of being nestled in the redwoods, but soon realized that we really liked our site with the grassy area & that it got sunlight as those sites in the forest were very dark all day. Laundromat was clean & well priced. Staff were very friendly & helpful. We were also glad that we stayed outside Crescent City as it tended to be warmer & less foggy further inland. We had no issues using the WiFi, but the campground was not full & we were near the office. We were not able to get any air tv channels & there was no cable, but they did loan out dvds. Overall we felt that our stay compared to staying at a state park with some amenities. That being said, we did feel that the price was high for this type of campground/ Rv park. It was one of the higher priced places we have stayed in over two years of traveling in the US & Canada.

Campground was pretty quiet in regards to other guests... the "manager" was very loud and was moving his camp into the one across from us and had a tractor going ALL day long. When asked what was going on he told us that he was moving into a new campsite for whatever reason and he asked how long he would be going back and forth on the very noisy tractor. He instantly got rude and told us we stayed in a "working campground" and basically to get over it. We ended up leaving for the day to relax at the river (which was surprisingly quieter than hearing the tractor all day). Campspots are very tight and there is not a lot of signage and the ones they have are not clear. Thankfully we had 2 spots on either side of us and they were our family so we got lucky. This seemed like more of a rural apartment complex than a resort... lots of permanent residents, some buildings and random vehicles and campers look very outdated.

We had been planning this trip for over a year with friends, the cable did not work, the wifi was not working, the showers and toilets were down for 3 or 4 days. We had full hook-ups the sites varied in size but some of the giant trees were cool. The best part was having a great time with friends and family . This was our second year here. We are looking for a new place to get together.

Some Pros and Cons - it's Nice family Welcoming Park . -On demand water = nice and Hot showers (bathrooms need updating), laundry facilities (small fee, coin machine available and open 24hrs ), onsite ice for a decent price. -Camp spaces small. Some in middle of park with no privacy. You must Drive through a trailer park to get to back side for tent camping. - Park has light posts throughout that shine all night. -There are trails with beautiful foliage. Lots of greenery which make it a lovely setting. Our spot was small but fit our pop-up snuggly. Also appeared to Freshly cut- all mud no gravel. It was a muddy mess come the rain. The only but "major" issue we had was due to the unprofessional way one staffer acted. We felt Harassed by "Manager, Lee" with intimidating behaviors. He tried to flex his authority with his 2 attempts of kicking us and the site next-door out. The second night of our stay he walked into next-door camp site with a raised voice demanding they remove the Christmas Lights that were hanging In "his" trees. The following morning he was Driving by our site slowly staring at my 12yr old daughter and I with a mean look and shaking his head. I say "good morning" - he reverses truck and says "you're next". We ask what his problem is and he states "you have 30 minutes to vacate", and proceeds to caused a big scene, cursing , pointing fingers in my husbands face, saying he was calling sheriff. We went straight to office after that. The Ladies in office are doing best they can to put to us at ease. They provided complaint forms (filled out and sent to email provided). We continued our stay with no additional incidents. Overall stay was decent, but made unpleasant by a particular person. We will Not be going back.

We had a good stay! Kids enjoyed themselves just some things that were falsely advertised… the pics on the website give you a whole different perspective! The sites are really one on top of each other .. No privacy …. The road ways are narrow.. we were in site 62 I wouldn’t recommend anything over 28ft we have a 35ft trailer and it was a very tight squeeze … didn’t help we came in late and couldn’t see the sites at all.. reflected number would be great to see at night! We had to back in and it was a pull-thru which didn’t help but it was dark and late! The map makes it look like spaces give space but they don’t we had a tent site right at the back of the trailer … bathrooms are really outdated! The staff is really nice and super helpful! They do drive around until late in the night which I think is for security ?

Love this place!!! We’ve stayed twice and plan on booking for next year too! Super friendly and accommodating staff and owners! Ramblin’ Redwoods has great camp sites tucked in among Western red cedars with everything from cabins to full hook up sites to tent sites available. The facilities are not new but the rest rooms, showers and laundry facilities are always kept clean and tidy! They have fire pits, horseshoe pits and an open common area for hanging out with fellow campers. They have a great playground for younger campers too. They are just off of US101 and not far from the Trees of Mystery, the Smith River, Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, Tolowa Dunes State Park, lots of hiking trails , fishing spots, and Crescent City is close by for dining, shopping/resupplying your RV or camp site. Lee and Becky, the newest owners of Ramblin’ Redwoods Campground & RV Park, kindly accommodated our group after we thought we had a reservation but it turned out that we really didn’t (an error on our part, to be sure). Instead of turning us away, they were able to squeeze us in for the entire five days that we planned to stay. Throughout our stay, we would see them around the campground and they very kindly checked in on us to make sure we were having a good time and that the accommodations were what we needed. We can’t thank them enough for their flexibility and hospitality! Already looking forward to going back next year!

We called around 11am as we were driving north on a Saturday and said we would call back. Not even 5 minutes later we called back to reserve a tent site. No answer. We called back every hour until we arrived there, no answer, which made for a stressful afternoon not knowing where we would be camping. Then, we were given a tent site “away from neighbors” but is basically next to the highway. The roadside noise was terrible with traffic all night and people driving in/around the camp from 9pm-4am. Got little to no sleep. They did recommend the marketplace for good burgers and were accurate on that account though. Restrooms were clean also. I would probably book with them again, but make sure to get a different site and book online.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. We’d booked a tent camping site, but the weather turned really rainy and windy. We asked if we could upgrade to a cabin. Becky said they had one available and took care of all the details. The cabin we stayed in was cozy, clean, and had a well equipped kitchen and bath. Everything well organized Highly recommend.

This is a well established campground north of Crescent City. Given that the Mill Creek Campground is closed in Del Norte Redwoods, this is the best alternative! The staff is courteous. The bathrooms are well maintained. The only reason this isn't a five star rating is that the campsites are too close together. There isn't much breathing room or privacy between them. The campsite I rented was fairly private, and the row didn't have any neighbors. It was a lovely nine nights.
