We have fallen in love with this place becasue it's so close to home and work but also a great escape. We love our endless walks around the grounds, cooking outside, and just enjoying the family. Even without the lake, we enjoy it. Fishing in the pond has also become one of our favorite things to do.

Some sites have sharp drop-off from asphalt pad

Campground was clean and well taken care of. We love the fact that sites are not right next to each other. Plenty of room to back our 35 rig. We knew the lake is being worked on so would imagine the view will be much better when its back. We didnt use the bathhouse facilities so cannot rate.

Nice place. Clean with full hookups, level and most sites had great views.

We stayed in Site 8, and the view over the river was beautiful! It would be even better if there was some water in the lake. This site is very nice, just have to be careful of the drop-off from the driveway to the remainder of the area. My wife actually fell down the slope, so be careful if you stay here. Other than that, this is very nice campground. Always clean and well kept.

My visit was nice. My campsite as well as the entire campground looked nice. Hopefully, the lake will be refilled very soon.
@KathyL1917379 · Camped on Mar 20, 2026 at Campsite #50
Lake was dry. Will be nice when dam is fixed
@JulieS4767669 · Camped on Mar 18, 2026 at Campsite #32
A Beautiful Peaceful stay. We love Hernando Point. We arent water folks , so having no water is not important to us. We look forward to our next visit soon.

Site 23 was perfect Site 24 was very short and had a ditch too close to the pad; connection to sewer was at least 20 feet from my connection. Would not rent that site again.
@ElyseD0360EC84 · Camped on Mar 16, 2026 at Campsite #6
Beautiful sites. Spacious and level. Huge campground with good facilities and great views.
@EricN5725814 · Camped on Mar 16, 2026 at Campsite #19
Beautiful site (19) directly on the water. Our host made sure we knew about weather coming in and safety procedures to follow.
@AliceK8706561 · Camped on Mar 15, 2026 at Campsite #38
Nice spacious campground with trees all around. It was predicted to be a stormy night and the campground host came around to point out the storm shelters for our safety. We were only there for one night, but would definitely stay again sometime if passing through.

@DonC1100217 · Camped on Mar 5, 2026 at Campsite #23
Repair the dam and fill the link back up with water would be awesome. But the cleanup and improvements? Has been absolutely. Benefit. We spend. Two to three weeks a year. Particular area. Visiting our grandchildren. And they love riding bicycles. But it'd be nice to have water in the lake.
@AshleyH5737268 · Camped on Mar 5, 2026 at Campsite #66
This was our second visit to Hernando Point (and as RV owners in general..HA) It's such a perfect place. We love that we are close to "town" but the feeling of being away. Everyone there was so nice and our dog even had a blast. Can't wait to go back!
@PaulJ4100707 · Camped on Mar 4, 2026 at Campsite #4

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.
