Large campsites. Level, paved spots for Rv or trailer. Many spots have view of the wayer without having to view your neighbor. Nice rangers and clean bathrooms.

spacious campsites, quite and clean bathrooms. Downside is only 1 shower stall and no water spigot in the campsite we chose, its in campsite across.

Id like to go back when everything is green. Campsites are not too close together. There are some that are a bit more secluded. I like the free showers and flushed toilets. $30 a nite is a decent price. Based on my visit there wasnt any disturbance or loud noise and music after dark which is nice . People go out there to relax and get away from the city. The restrooms are kept cleaned . Thanks to the staff for keeping the place clean. I did see rangers driving around making the rounds not to intimidate anyone but to make sure everyone is following the rules and I do appreciate that .

Lots of campsites with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding foothills. Camps are clean and well maintained.

Great views and amenities. Some of the spaces have very limited flat space for tents so larger groups should chose their campsite location with care. The rangers were very attentive.

Great campground (Big Oak) with pretty good access to the lake for fishing. Well maintained and clean bathrooms!

It's a lovely campground. The size of the sites is generous, though mostly not flat.
@DavidH4978786 · Camped on Oct 6, 2025 at Campsite #29
I visited during a low usage time of year and was the only camper in the park for a couple of days so I don't know how it would be during busy crowded times. The park was well kept and the bathrooms were clean. My reservation materials were clamped to the site post and the site was prepared and clean. It was a quiet and peaceful visit. Cell service was great for ATT. Water spigots are convenient. Be advised that there is very little shade and during hot days one needs to provide shade or run AC in your RV. Conversely, ground near the paved driveways and in the picnic table areas is dirt and would be muddy in case of a heavy storm shower. Dump station was closed.

I stayed there on a sat night and a sunday night and both were enjoyable. Fun things to do and water all around. Just walk around or hang out on the water.

Nice campground for a stop on my way to San Francisco, too bad the level of the lake was so low, would have gone for a swim otherwise... No hot shower though. The spots are well spaced, beautiful sunset. Also amazing for birdwatching, bring your binoculars!

Relaxing, quiet, clean.
@TinaR6438199 · Camped on Oct 1, 2025 at Campsite #40
Sites are spacious, restrooms clean. Nice to have a shower available.
@IsisBA6C8A02D7 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #69
Great views and good spots !
@CarolK7612349 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #26
The reservation process was spot on. The views are great, and there's partial shade and plentiful water spigots. The restrooms and shower house are poorly maintained. Litter is common. Noise from campers extended way into quiet hours.

We took day hikes both in Glory Hole and Tuttletown and of coursed our favorite ranch dressing pizza in the St Charles Saloon located in Columbia state Park. We also visited Murphys to cool down by the stream in the town park and enjoyed a beer at the Irish Pub ion the Main Street.

All good

The dump station is never open anymore and they tell you to go to Tuttletown side to dump but the last time I drove all that way there was no water. When you call about it the people dont think you need water because theyve never dumped an RV. Also the flush toilets werent working so only an out house. Before they started charging for day use, launch fees and raised the price of camping everything worked!!
@BillK6985DA702 · Camped on Sep 17, 2025 at Campsite #31
Did not take advantage of any of the amenities. Arrived late and left the next morning.
@FaithM19D358D8 · Camped on Sep 16, 2025 at Campsite #112
My stay this time was more peaceful but it was humid and hot. They did change their parking rules in which was a huge inconvenience for us. Other than that no complaints!!

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.
