It was secluded and sights were roomy and private. Not having cell service was inconvenient. The access to water was sketchy. No dump station should have been listed somewhere on the web sight.

Huge campsites, very clean. Loved being able to have electric just for some conveniences. My kids enjoyed our many walks around the campground. Though it was too chilly to swim the sandy beach area is really nice! We will be camping here every year.

Campsites were very nice, facilities were clean and checked daily. Very quiet in the day and people were very respectful of the nighttime noise curfew. Lake was nice, beach area clean. The only issue was the road leading in was bumpy, but when I think about it that prevents campers from driving like lunatics. All and all a GREAT campground, highly recommend it.

I have been camping in my motorhome for about 4 years now, and have been to A LOT of places. This is my VERY FAVORITE campground, to date! The Camp Host is WONDERFUL (I had also been here 3 years ago, and that Camp Host was ALSO wonderful)! The sites are HUGE and private! The lake is gorgeous and peaceful!!! Can't wait to go back!

Love this campground- hosts kept the outhouse exceptionally clean! The only problem is the gauntlet of potholes in the driveway- you basically have to idle through them otherwise you might have doors flying open in the camper not to say what it does to a front end alignment.

Always love going to Camp Seven to camp. Jill and Darin Pope are the best hosts! Campground, sites and bathrooms are always so neat and clean.If you have a problem, they are right on it. The lake is just really beautiful whether your swimming or just quietly enjoying it.

The campsites were huge! We didn't even know anyone else was there. The Host was very friendly and helpful! It was very clean, easy access to water, and electricity worked! Lake is beautiful and very clear. Also hiking trails were fun and good even for kids. We'll be back!

This is a beautiful campground with large and private sites. We have a 33' 5th wheel and we had no issues getting into our site. (#36). The campground host was very helpful and friendly, and we appreciated her guidance regarding extending our stay. This was a good location that allowed us to make day-trips to several beautiful destinations. Also of note, the sunsets over the lake were amazing! The only negative I have is the potholes, as mentioned by many, as they are hard on vehicles & RVs.

My third year in-a-row on site #33 on opening day for a 'shake down' trip before hitting the State Parks over the summer. Very clean, very quiet - only 4 other sites occupied during my stay. After filling my camper's freshwater tank with a 5-gallon jug (which took FOREVER) at water house #1, I noticed while walking the dog that the second water house has had a hose screw-on added. Will remember THAT for next trip. The roadways STILL need pothole filling - some were 6" deep and 2 to 3' diameter. Overall great experience. See ya next time.

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!!!
