Campsites are cramped/piled on top of one another and have almost no privacy. Practically need a four-wheel drive to navigate the road through the campground. Camp host was not available the three times I stopped by to try to land a different campsite (mine was right next to the bathroom with no room for a tent - which was not clear when I booked). I ended up forfeiting the fee and booking a much more desirable site at the Upper Sage Flat campground.

I made this reservation very close to the date we visited so my name wasnt on the camp post. There was no water available and I found out later it was a dry campsite. Otherwise it was a nice venue and we had a good time.

camp sites are very small, but well kept. the creek through the campground is lovely, and there's plenty of shade from the July sun. the campground road, however, needs some serious maintenance expect large frost heaves and tree root intrusions. very low clearance cars may have trouble, but with all the cuts to the USFS budget, don't expect any improvements soon.

The campground did not have any water
@JAMESS8693241 · Camped on Jun 29, 2025 at Campsite #18
Only negative was there was no available potable water from any of the faucets at the entire campground. Had to drive to a separate campground to fill our water containers.

It was clean, quiet and easy to access the trail head.

Great campground!! Our campsite gave us pretty decent privacy and was near the creek which was nice. The roads within the campground are a bit rough so drive carefully. There are only vault toilets but they were clean and well maintained! Definitely would come back again some day.

Site 29 was clean, located near Big Pine Creek. Bathrooms well maintained. Beautiful weather. I will return.

@OlegD98EFBB641 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #7
Great except no water to wash hands. All faucets were dry. Spacious sites and quiet
@SarahG7471679 · Camped on Jun 15, 2025 at Campsite #19
Very clean vault bathrooms and looks like some of the fire pits have been redone which is awesome. Super quiet, too. Probably my favorite campground!
@JillianS809511 · Camped on Jun 12, 2025 at Campsite #19
Lovely campground, very clean and picturesque. Sites close to the creek are recommended prior to mosquito season. Guests adhered to quiet hours and were respectful regarding noise. Campground close to trail head. Onsite workers helpful and kinds. Would stay here again.
@JeffreyM593003 · Camped on Jun 10, 2025 at Campsite #30
Beautiful campground right next to epic hiking
@WilliamC221307 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #16
Great for hikers
@BrandonO78CE9A · Camped on May 26, 2025 at Campsite #23
Great weather. Great spot. Only gripe is water was shutdown and needed to go back down hill for firewood.
@DonnaM2595319 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #14
This campground does not have access to drinking water. It is in a great location for a base camp for the Big Pine Creek trail and fishing the creek.
@CharlesM934555 · Camped on Oct 23, 2024 at Campsite #19
Picturesque and well maintained sites. We prefer dispersed camping but the spacing between sites allows for some mod moderate privacy. Great access to amazing hiking. This is my second time here and Id come back again in the future!
@BradH2618940 · Camped on Oct 7, 2024 at Campsite #22

Love this campground and had a site right next to the stream
@CaitlinC9A6C38 · Camped on Sep 8, 2024 at Campsite #17
Only stayed one night. EXTREMELY LOUD CAMPSITE. Lots of sites blasting music day and night. Blasting giant projector TVs. Dont come here if you want to be in nature. Staff was all nice, facilities are all clean, too bad they dont do anything about the noise.
@LeAnneKFF7C83E · Camped on Sep 3, 2024 at Campsite #23

@NikkiL78B408AE · Camped on Aug 29, 2024 at Campsite #15

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!!!
