Don’t stay here if you don’t want to get your personal items stolen. The first night we were here, we came in around 11:30pm and by the morning our generator got stolen from our service truck. Apparently theft happens often here according to the day shift staff. We have reasons to believe it was the Rambling Redwoods “security guard” (what a perfect gig for him). Highly do not recommend staying at this property.

Too close to hwy 101 for me as the road noise is constant. You are also by Pelican State Prison so theres that. Once we arrived we were told to secure everything as they have had some theft occurr. Our first night a very loud alarm went off and being next to the prison i was not comfortable. At check in we were told that the alarm is for volunteers with fire and emts, hmmmm. Our site #41 was a pull thru but the site was not very private and the kids in the next site were very loud. This is a great location to go see the Redwoods but i would definitely choose a site on the opposite side of the campground

We had a beautiful RV site tucked among the Redwoods. Even the rain didn't ruin our stay. The staff was very accommodating and the park was conveniently located near everything we wanted to see and do.

We stayed 4 nights in order to visit Redwoods NP. It is a convenient location to both ends of the park and Crescent City. The campground is in need of upgrades. We were in a 36 foot Motorhome towing a Jeep. Our 50 amp pull through FHU site was quite muddy so new gravel is needed. I could only get the 30 amp plug on the pedestal to work. The maintenance guy said they had issues with low voltage so 30 amps was all we could expect. It wasn't an issue given the time of year but would be a concern in hot weather. The bathrooms were very outdated and not very clean so we didn't use them. Laundry had a blockage at first that was repaired and then one machine just ate our coins. This was probably a nice campground at one point. It has lots of shade and a couple of more open sites. It really needs some work and is currently overpriced.

Nice campground. Only reason submitted 4 stars is they put us in site #5 which is jammed in between 2 cabins, you literally can see into cabins windows so close. It is a very “dark” site no light filters in. There were several other sites available they could have put us in. Somewhat disappointed!

RV Sites are nestled in the redwoods, easy to get in and around. About 1/2 the sites are full-time residents. Bathrooms need updating, half the laundry machines were out of order during our visit.

We had an amazing time. The cabin felt a little on the narrow side. But, overall, well worth it. The staff were always reachable during office hours and responsive to our needs.

Absolutely loved this campground! You're camping right next to big ol' redwoods trees! It's such a mystical spot! It was rainy season when we went on our way down the coast and the 101, so it was so peaceful the entire stay. We stayed two nights and wish we could live there. It's close to Crescent City for city amenities, but also super close to the Jedidiah's. The Stout Grove trail is super close which is my favorite of all the Redwoods. Great location for the PNW coast and the Redwoods (Jedidiah's and Prairie Creek). The staff were super friendly and the bathrooms are cozy with hot showers. I loved that they had a heater in the bathroom because it was definitely cold outside. I'll never forget walking back to our RV tucked in between big Redwood Tree stumps and ferns everywhere. If we get the chance to travel back up the 101 ever again, we'll definitely stay here!

We were in site #19. It was great, private. Used the laundry, bathrooms were dated but very clean. They even had a space heater going so when you showered you didn’t freeze. Great location. We’d come back!

Travelling from Canada, this is the most beautiful campground! The hosts are lovely! The sites are large and it was easy to maneuver with our big rig. They have an awesome playground, but my kids preferred to create their own adventure on the campgrounds redwood trail! Highly recommend this campground!

We stayed in July. The campground is beautiful and has great secluded spots. The bathrooms/showers were great as was the little store for any last minute supplies. We loved this campground and can’t wait to stay next year!

Arrived late our first night and they had everything laid out for us to get our campsite set up with no problems. Nice showers with great pressure, beautiful campground, easy access but far enough away from town that we didn’t hear traffic or people.

Really, REALLY need to provide an escort to sites. We went around 3 times before we found our site in a cluster of sites with no site number visible from the camp road. Nice setting in redwoods (not old growth, but good sized), but there are a number of trashy permanent rigs visible. Facilities are worn and tired.

We couldnt go because of the fires nearby. Hwy to get there was closed. Air quality was bad and smoky. They were running on generators in crescent city when we called to explain why we couldn't get down there. . The state parks and the hiking in the area were all closed. And yet…This campground would not refund out reservation or even let us transfer it to another time. What were we supposed to do? Sit in a smoke filled city in a camper with off and on electricity, no hiking available and most of the city shut down? Common sense and common descency does not run through this company. Corporate makes their decisions. Corporate office doesnt even respond to emails sent. If you book here you better hope nothing out of your control keeps you from going. Or you may be out 600-800 dollars |

Nice campground in the redwoods. Very good location after visiting Redwoods National and State Parks. Close to Trees of Mystery. Sites are fairly level but very close to neighbors. Our fire ring was very close to the front of our neighbor's site. The WiFi was spotty. Decent 4G cell service with Verizon but not enough to stream.
