We awanted to move out lacation to a spot that was vacated. We found spot was vacant both physically and on the website...but the rangers still did not let us move our camp to that location because according to them, it's still paid for few days. ...so why was it available on the website?

Love the campground but it needs to have fish cleaning station. Why was it removed this is the largest campground on the lake.
@PaulM6940902 · Camped on Jul 9, 2025 at Campsite #43
Nice, clean, and quiet.

Previous years the large garbage cans were in the campground across from the playground which were convenient for everyone camping. Now they are all by the entrance which is much more inconvenient when its time to discard the garbage. It would be much more convenient if a couple of dumpsters are placed where they were previously.

The views on the lakefront are amazing! Some sites can reach the lakefront by trails, but it can be treacherous. The public beach is clean and decent size and life vests to borrow while swimming. The bathrooms have actual plumbing with sinks and lights and the shower houses are clean and look nice as well. We had a wonderful weekend full of swimming and fun!

Beautiful campground
@lisag1860020 · Camped on Jun 25, 2025 at Campsite #38
Was in site 38. It used to be a very nice site. Since they have paved it, they moved a fire pit away from the corner so you could not even sit and have a fire with your awning open and it was in the way for everything we wanted to sit around and do Campos should be in the office at least an hour or two in the mornings for those of us who go out on the boat. Had issues collecting our tags from a site reserved six months ago. Should not have to get off water at 2 PM to go collect a tag for a site that is paid for

My only complaint is that the power hook up is at the entrance of the site when they are usually at the back corner. I didn't have the proper extension cord so by the time my 16ft camper and SUV parked in front of it my front tires were on the road. Otherwise it was a great site with great views.

Clean and quiet campground. Sites were well maintained. Bath houses were cleaned daily. They were plagued by bugs, but they are hard to control.
@wilmab7FA2A390 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #207
Nice park and clean. Bathrooms was cleaned every day. Our site was 207 nice size site, full sun but we had full hookups and close to the bathroom.
@BarbWFA87905B4 · Camped on Jun 15, 2025 at Campsite #53
We didnt stay really long, we only drove around the lake a bit, but the campground was great. Clean, quiet, sites were nice. Ours was very shady. I would say cell service is not as good as reviews say. We have AT&T and Verizion each only had one bar, calls were very broken. Other than that had a great time and will definitely be back!
@RobertP6375002 · Camped on Jun 15, 2025 at Campsite #51
Beautiful park. Kids loved the beach area. I didnt like how the toilet paper holders dont allow the toilet paper to roll. No soap or a way to dry your hands. No trash cans in the restrooms. Sites were nice size.
@JacquelinB2FDF · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #50
Best camping trip in years. Extremely nice clean camp. Bathrooms and shower house clean and convenient. Camp spots are spacious. Beach was nice. Already set up our next trip. General store with everything you might forget. Exceptionally great weekend camping swimming and fishing. See you in August

@TrudySD852D8CA · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #116
Great campsite. Shower houses with disability access was excellent. Surprised how few people were there during the week.
@JesseR22371651 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #96
Would definitely return we had a great weekend for my birthday and Memorial Day! Cant wait to try another campsite closer to the water!

This is my favorite campground. The kids love going to the beach and the playground. The basketball court is nice. The private shower houses are clean and well maintained. The water stays on continuously and the water stayed hot and never ran out. I also love the store that's available with just about anything you need! The sites are plenty spacious for our 32 ft pull behind camper. There are plenty of sites for tent camping as well along with extra parking areas for any extra guests. There's buddy sites available too. The fire pits and picnic tables at each site are nice. And i must add that there are many different types of sites as well. So if you want to be in the sun, shade, wooded, grass areas, gravel, or black top, there's options available. I recommend booking early if you want a full hookup site. Our family loves riding around the campground on our electric scooter to see all the other campers as there are many different forks in the roads that branch off to the different sections of the campground. They have the boat launch area that has many parking spaces if you have a boat. And if you are into fishing, there are areas for you to fish as well. I love the new dump station area as it is super easy and fast to get things cleaned up and the water pressure to clean things out is amazing! The gate attendant is super nice and friendly so check in was a breeze!! There's something for everyone here. We drive from over an hour away to camp here and I have yet to be disappointed in our stay here! Highly recommend!

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.
