Very beautiful campground,the sockeye were not there in numbers so we caught our fish somewhere else. The hike to the falls was very nice. Would recommend to campers .

Great options for some tent camping away from the loudness of an rv. Just book the outer loop.

Nice wooded camp sites and close to the river!

I only gave four stars because of the amount of overgrowth on trail. It was difficult blindly walking thru while still trying to be proactive towards the wildlife. Other than that I loved every minute of the hike, from the solitude to the majestic views.

Beautiful and great camping area. Only problem I had was when we arrived the first day of reservation there was an unattended rv in our spot. Had to drive back to the gate to see if they could call the owner and tell them they were supposed to be out a couple of hours ago and was told they had no way to contact them so we had to wait till they came back to get our reserved spot. Very disappointing.

Finally, you've started to repair that tight hill next to the river.

The road in was in terribe shape. No excuse for letting it go like that regardless of it being under construction soon.I would fire the people in charge. It was that bad.
@TimR4117159 · Camped on Jul 29, 2024 at Campsite #78
Enjoyed it.
@PaulM6940902 · Camped on Jul 28, 2024 at Campsite #39
Great place. Friendly people. Fantastic views! I like the Bear Box at each site to keep items away from bears.

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!!!
