The park is beautiful and clean. The bathrooms/showerhouses are spotless. The views of the water and pelicans are breathtaking and so relaxing.

Pull through sight was great. Sight is definitely not flat but also easily leveled(4 side ways and prob 6+ front to back.. Great view of water and only close to one camp sight 5 really. We enjoyed it. And easy walk to the shower house.

We stayed at site 3. Great view of the mountain and lake. Boat launch is down below but wasnt any bother. We stayed in a motorhome 27in long and fit with space to put our vehicle behind it. We walked in the morning to see the sunrise by the lake. The sunset was amazing as well. The bathroom facilities were clean and upkept. It was a shirt walk from our site. Overall this campground is quiet, clean, and beautiful! Our family will definitely be back and stay a little longer.

Always a great park to stay at. Very clean park and clean restrooms. Helpful staff and easy backing in. Just wish with increased prices internet was offered for longer stays

Love this site it is very beautiful. A bit tricky to back into but once you get there its totally worth it! Quite campground and the Park Rangers came around often and were very nice.

I have been camping at Waveland park since I was a young child. Our family always enjoys our time together at the park. We feel fortunate to have a beautiful place so close to home.
@KendallF229CC8 · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #8
I did not have any water at camp site but was given a refund for one night. The grass was very high, or I should say weeds. Bathrooms were clean Did see a few teens or young adults that was driving too fast. I get that is something you will have everywhere
@LaneI7A78D5096 · Camped on Jun 8, 2025 at Campsite #50
One of the best views at the campground huge private space. Constant breeze and decent cell service.
@KellyJ6E0B7C97 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #6
I stayed on site 6 at Waveland. I enjoyed the site for it's privacy. It faces the sunsets looking westward, and although that is a benefit, it also gets the full strength of winds coming in from the west. If you are a tent camper like myself, beware of any incoming lines of storms.
@DebbieH2027684 · Camped on May 9, 2025 at Campsite #29
The best place ever to go as a couple or hang out with family and friends. People there are like family to us. Very clean and safe and very beautiful!
@BrendaP8892898 · Camped on Apr 27, 2025 at Campsite #29
Waveland Park is a beautiful park
@DebbieKDA7259B · Camped on Apr 16, 2025 at Campsite #28
Because of recent storms, the site we originally booked was under water and we had to be moved. The new site put us up on the hill and not ideal for a big rig. The road is narrow as are the sites and they are just barely long enough for a 35 motorhome, with little space left for a tow vehicle. In fact, we had to move our tow vehicle so the campers across from us could get into their site.The sites are on top of each other, with a few that youre practically sharing space with your neighbor. And as typical in most COE parks, there is no signage indicating what way you need to go to get to a specific site.The bathrooms however are very clean and kept clean on a regular basis.

No trash or sewer dump available. This needs addresses immediately

Very nice campground. Clean and well kept.
@BenG5400481 · Camped on Mar 13, 2025 at Campsite #6
Really nice campground. Clean restrooms, easy dump station, great scenery and would be awesome for a fall camp site.
@DavidH4978786 · Camped on Dec 9, 2024 at Campsite #23
We really enjoyed our stay at Waveland Park, beautiful, peaceful and quiet! Only issue I had was the fact the water connect was so far from our RV. Had to go back to town to get additional hose, maybe should put that info in the camping spot description!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
