So we was in site 52 for 4 days , Beautiful campground, Host were very friendly! My 120v plug wasnt working when I arrived, I had to use power from my friends site 55, I told camp host my issue, the gfi plug was tripped and wouldnt reset , they come and put a new gfi plug in , but didnt plug back up my camper! When we returned back my camper was 91 degrees inside! I was very angry, I have a 13 year old yorkie in there which is our child, he was very hot. This was very upsetting to me. If something was to happen to my dog , Im not sure what I would have done , that was my only issue with staying there also the plug didnt work when they put new one in

Lovely campground, and the trail was beautiful. The camp host was very welcoming and helpful. We were there only one night, which happened to be Saturday, and it was very busy.

We camp at Holmes bend every year! It is one of our favorite places!

@TaylorS9260528 · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #34
We had the best time staying at Holmes Bend for 5 nights! The volunteers that run the campground were so friendly and everyone around us was also! We had a great time and will definitely be back!
@ChrisW1509692 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #52
Site was spacious and level. Zero complaints!! Holmes Bend is one of the nicest COE campgrounds you will find!!
@RobertM1452522 · Camped on Jun 26, 2025 at Campsite #98
Beautiful Campground. Loved the campsites especially with the gravel and railroad ties to eliminate mud. The shower houses had quite a bit to be desired and could definitely use an update. Other than that a very good experience and would go back sometime.

Enjoyed every site I've been on of course I try get shady spots
@KathleenE93163 · Camped on Jun 25, 2025 at Campsite #105
Very nice campground. Spacious, shaded sites, showers adequate but could use updating. Drawback-no on-site water hookups!
@ThomasS5574085 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #34
There were so many cars, trucks, boats, trailers, golf carts!!! People everywhere. The ladies bathhouse closed. Lots of big groups getting together. If there are rules for number of people and vehicles at a campsite, they should be enforced.
@WilliamW688008 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #26
Campground was clean but needed to be mowed. We never saw any cleaning crews the week we were there. It would be helpful too if they would put in a Wi-Fi network for the campground.
@JenniferH28313 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #38
We appreciated having our passes and a map available at the post at our site.

@JakeB729A8B422 · Camped on May 29, 2025 at Campsite #73
It was quiet, relaxing, beautiful, and everyone was very kind and respectful.
@LasashaG3289C2 · Camped on May 2, 2025 at Campsite #37
Bath houses is the nastiest Ive ever seen. He cleaning lady only removes trashes and restocks the toilet paper. The floors and walls have never been cleaned. Dead bugs and live bugs are everywhere! It is unbelievable how nasty until you visit.
@LloydDB61F2E25 · Camped on May 1, 2025 at Campsite #75
Had our normal good camping experience at Holmes Bend during Derby Weekend. Hosts are friendly and helpful, all facilities in good condition. Campground was full, but this is the last weekend before loops D and E reopen. That opens up quite a few more sites.
@TracyF1893156 · Camped on Oct 18, 2024 at Campsite #80
It was very nice, the only complaint is that we was right in front of the bathrooms and there was two bright lights that shined all night.
@BrittanMB17112 · Camped on Oct 6, 2024 at Campsite #72
This is one of our favorite campgrounds! We extended our camping trip twice because we never want to leave! The host was so, so sweet and helpful! She had nachos for campers. It just always feels like family! The campsites are our favorite. Theyre very spacious yet private. We love it and will always come multiple times a year!

This is a beautiful COE park. Large, lots of spots. It has RV sites which can view the lake, but the lake is down an 800 foot cliff. What we did not enjoy is that they had shut down most of the RV park (we came in October), so everyone was crammed into a small area. We planned our trip for a time when it would be less crowded. Most of the good sites were with the lake view...but they were shut down. Also our spot was very difficult to get into with large trees on either side of the RV parking area . We did it -- but it was stressful!
@CherylP9442921 · Camped on Oct 4, 2024 at Campsite #63
Great campground. Well shaded. Good atmosphere . Take extra long water hose. We had to run into town and buy additional hose. Water was at entrance to campsite. Needed about 65 ft of hose.
@JeffreyB316807 · Camped on Sep 30, 2024 at Campsite #73
Super nice campground. Only problem was backing into our site was a little difficult. Camp host was very friendly and helpful.

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.
