Good spot for camping. Loved having the river and hot springs close. Vault toilet was out of toilet paper and very full when we arrived so it was good we brought our own.
@JamesL2887084 · Camped on Jul 1, 2025 at Campsite #6
Campground had garbage scattered around it and the restroom toilet was completely full with flys all in the inside. The hot springs are just springs and not hot at all. We drove off and went down towards Garden valley to Hot springs campground and stayed. It was a million times better. Ill never ever step foot much less stay at pine flat.I want my money back since it was nasty and we had to pay to stay at hot springs campground

Nice spot and very peaceful.

Beautiful campground above the river with lots of trees providing good shade. Only complaint is that most sites that I saw including ours dont really have a decent flat spot to put a large tent. The ground is just naturally uneven. Not really the campgrounds fault but maybe some work could be done to create good flat spots obvious for tents like they have at the Mountain View campground just up the way.

Excellent and clean campground.

I reserved a "trailer" site (spot #6) for Pine Flats through this website, but unfortunately when we arrived, it was a tent site, as we were unable to back up our trailer anywhere due to large boulders blocking the site. Our only option was to parallel park in front of it (in a parking lot) then walk 20+ feet to get to the picnic table and fire pit. The guests next to us (spot #7) had the same situation and said they were upset to find they couldn't back their trailer in either. Guests in spot #5 had basically pitched their tent in our site, which was super rude. We left and stayed in Garden Valley for the weekend instead. The campground overall seems decent, and I'd like to try to stay there again some time, just need to CONFIRM the spot we reserve is, in fact, for trailers.

Hardly any trees. So in the summer, its just plain hot.
@MelindaJ60A13C · Camped on Jun 30, 2024 at Campsite #1
Pine Flats is a great family friendly spot - leave it better than you found it and be respectful of other campers!
@CrystalF747925 · Camped on May 28, 2024 at Campsite #17
Great little spot for camping
@NathanK8331968 · Camped on May 24, 2024 at Campsite #1
Closest to the hot springs trail, further up on hill and away from most other campers. Nice flat driveway

@BrianM6776107 · Camped on Aug 7, 2023 at Campsite #16
Unknown to us, our site was a double site. Other occupants were unfriendly and threatening. We left after about 30 minutes.
@AngelaW2479688 · Camped on Aug 6, 2023 at Campsite #7
This campsite was lovely. Just a short trek down to the river and a 10 minute walk to the hot springs. The campground was well taken care of. No cell reception made for a nice quiet time.

Family and dogs had a blast- weather was perfect- camp site, vault toilet clean- fellow campers respectful
@MatthewP515566 · Camped on Aug 1, 2023 at Campsite #1
It was a great overall campground however, i have maultiple concerns for spot one. It only has one good spot of shade which is tolerable but the fire ring was rusted out the bottom and dry plants were creeping closer and closer to the fire pit causing a massive fire danger. If the forest service doesnt want a wildfire, they would definitely want to fix this issue asap
@JodyE7D5CD0602 · Camped on Jul 24, 2023 at Campsite #14
Unfortunately, it was one of the hottest days there this year and the campsite is up on a hill, away from the river. Also, a fire had gone through at some point so the view was of bare hills with dead trees. I am disabled and could not walk down to the hot springs, but most folks would be able to do so and it would likely change the experience. We moved up the road after a few days and found a wonderful campsite right on the river.
@JordanS9337574 · Camped on Jul 9, 2023 at Campsite #14
Wonderful camp ground. Spot 14 is very close to the bathroom which is nice.
@DavidH4978786 · Camped on Jul 6, 2023 at Campsite #20
Camp hosts were great. First day we were there there was no toilet paper in the pit toilets. Garbage was overflowing the cans. Camp tables are in desperate need of repair. Some even had rebar sticking out which was an obvious hazard.
@FayeK72439FD3E · Camped on Jun 20, 2023 at Campsite #1
We had site 1 as you come in and it was a great site except not much shade in the afternoon to early evening. It was very quiet and private and the view was glorious. The campgrounds themselves were kept clean and tidy and the vaulted toilet always had tp. I would book again.
@TerrellR0F82B8 · Camped on Jun 15, 2023 at Campsite #4
Excellent camp ground!
@Charmaine80036 · Camped on Sep 7, 2022 at Campsite #19
The campground was very clean an well maintained. Far enough from the road that you rarely heard vehicle traffic, but close enough for easy access. The hike to the river and hot springs was short and moderately easy.
@EmilyB3587069 · Camped on Sep 2, 2022 at Campsite #1
We had such a great time! The campground itself is pretty average with not a lot of tree cover or privacy between campsites but being so close to the river and hot springs made it well worth the drive. Definitely check out the hot springs, just a short hike down along the river. Many of the sites had NO shade between 2 pm and 5 pm which was the hottest part of the day so bring something to make your own shade or prepare to hide out down by the river for a few hours. Overall a great experience!
@MeaganN3599156 · Camped on Aug 19, 2022 at Campsite #1
Perfect spot. Secluded but still has bathroom close by, right off the highway and walking distance to river and hot springs. We lucked out and had hardly any bugs.
@EllieG9495086 · Camped on Aug 13, 2022 at Campsite #21
We had reserved our site but someone was in it when we got there and the camp didn’t even know we were coming and she did nothing about them being in our site so we had to find another site for our camper. We went to the river but the pathway has not been cleared or made safe at all. Lots of people but everyone was friendly. Not much to look at since the surrounding hillsides are still just toothpicks sticking out of the ground from the Pioneer Fire several years ago. Overall it was ok.

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!!!
