Clean bathrooms, clean shower houses, camp store was awesome. Water front sites are bit tricky but worth the view!

I had a reservation for one site but when we got to the site we didnt like it so we ask the attendant if we could switch. He cheerfully switched it for us!
@PaulA828E973A1 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #22
Went there for some r&r. The campground was clean, restrooms were clean. The camp store was open and the staff was very friendly.

The site had power issues. We lost power on the 3rd night. I notified the camp host in the morning. A ranger came by and was able to have a maintenance person come out to troubleshoot and attempt to repair the power post. He found the power pole was showing @48v on the metal frame of the post. He replaced post and intermittently it was still showing @48v on the metal frame of the post.

The camp hosts were very welcoming. The sites were well maintained.
@OliverCDA2ECC1 · Camped on Jul 18, 2025 at Campsite #179
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?
@RonaldM7208164 · Camped on Jul 14, 2025 at Campsite #228
Very nice place
@SesseyL54C6526 · Camped on Jul 14, 2025 at Campsite #37
The campground was very nice. Restrooms were clean.
@MichaelS838841 · Camped on Jul 13, 2025 at Campsite #53
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.
@prestonh273B38 · Camped on Jul 8, 2025 at Campsite #10
Site 10, great level spot! Nice shady site. one site away from the bathhouse. My only complaint would be that the campground map indicated a water hookup near the site, but the hookup had been relocated to the other side of the bathhouses and was not operational. Overall, this did not affect our experience. I like the added benefit of being able to stretch a hose to fill back up if needed!
@LeonardC715762 · Camped on Jul 8, 2025 at Campsite #207
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.
@MauraJ1C81B46B · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #183
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!
@WilliamZ116256 · Camped on Jun 26, 2025 at Campsite #229
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
@AaronF3666152 · Camped on Jun 23, 2025 at Campsite #199
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.
@trishak140F0C2 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #186
Wonderful shaded spot.

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.
