Campsite was smaller than expected, but everything was nice! It is a little far from the bench trailhead (~1.2 miles), but we had a gorgeous hike.
@AllysaF4EDA72C · Camped on Dec 19, 2025 at Campsite #8
The campground as a whole was great. Clean bathrooms close by, having the camp store and showers nearby was a major plus. Lots of wildlife around that were especially active in the early morning.

The campground is kept very well and the people that work in the park are always friendly and very knowledgeable. Of course seeing both sides of the park is wonderful, whether hiking it or driving.

The underground waterfall is super cool. The best views of the pinnacles rock formations are from the Condor Gulch Trail from the Bear Gulch Nature Center parking lot. Might even see condors from the overlook about 1 mile up the trail.

Easy to locate site, clean campground, cell service was great. Store was well stocked and nice employees. Quiet nights. Will stay again.
@DorisB3181673 · Camped on Dec 15, 2025 at Campsite #30
Do not miss the Condor Gulch and High Peaks Trails. We saw 7 condors and 1 of them very close. During our stay we saw turkeys, lynx, rabbits, dears and quails. Amasing and relax park.

Bathroom near us was closed due to some plumbing issues. No notice as to where to go (turns out the nearest bathroom was quite a hike). Should have at least had a port-a-potty.
@RachelC2171796 · Camped on Dec 14, 2025 at Campsite #83
The ADA toilet trailer was out of order (both stalls). The site did have an ADA portapotty (one) near the bathroom buildings, but the way they were dropped was in the dirt/sand (difficult for wheelchairs to traverse. This portapotty was not lit at night like the bathrooms, and they were placed in the dirt in such a way that opening the door fully was a challenge because it jutted up against the parking barrier.

The site was nice and quiet. It was big, enough for a big group of people to hangout. There was a grill pit. They sell the fire woods at the campground store.
@TomD9914097 · Camped on Dec 12, 2025 at Campsite #42
Not enough toilets for a campground of ~160 sites.
@MichaelD829846 · Camped on Dec 11, 2025 at Campsite #23
The tent was freezing cold since there is no heat. Arrived late and did not have firewood either. The mattress was better than sleeping on the ground but I'd probably have been warmer in an actual tent.
@RonC4506391 · Camped on Dec 7, 2025 at Campsite #38
Pinnacles is an awesome place. Been going there since the 60s. It still amazes me every time I go.
@AmorN738287C0D · Camped on Dec 5, 2025 at Campsite #1
Rangers are very friendly. Pinnacles is a beautiful park.
@TobiasH3E94A4F · Camped on Dec 4, 2025 at Campsite #35
The park was a great time and you have lots of wildlife roaming the camping spaces. Really enjoyed it and we will be going back!!
@DanaB7254836 · Camped on Dec 3, 2025 at Campsite #96
We thoroughly enjoyed camping & hiking at Pinnacles National Park. Hiking the loop from Bear Gulch to/through the Cave Trail to the Reservoir, up the High Peaks Trail over, then down the Condor Gulch Trail back to Bear Gulch was amongst the most interesting, invigorating, and fun day hikes that we have ever done. We detected a rich assemblage of native wildlife during our stay including a flock of 6 California Condors, numerous Mule Deer, a Bobcat, a number of other bird species, and various mammal tracks.
@DonaldW3403304 · Camped on Dec 2, 2025 at Campsite #28
The tent cabin was great. One double bed and two twins. Very comfortable. There are solar lights built in so dont be afraid of the no electricity. Highly recommend staying here
@JeffreyP307FAC · Camped on Nov 30, 2025 at Campsite #78
Nice camp site visited by wildlife. Great hiking trails!
@BethK9EC076EDA · Camped on Nov 30, 2025 at Campsite #113
Perfect trip! Parked Truckcamper in the campground and could walk to all the trails. Hiked way up to see condors close up! Magnificant. National Park store has great park souveniers and friendly helpful staff.
@AlexH4146314 · Camped on Nov 28, 2025 at Campsite #127
Campsite is right next to the main road. Staff was not helpful. By far the worst park Ive ever been to.
@BrianH4556502 · Camped on Nov 28, 2025 at Campsite #13
On they way in the sign says all campers must check in. There's no parking for RVs anywhere close. We parked in front of the no parking signs because we couldn't find a place where we would fit and not get stuck. In front of the store it says you don't need to check in if you know your spot number. Well, make up your mind!Most sites are spacious and relatively private. Site 12 had plenty of room for our 25' trailer and our truck. The site was lumpy and unlevel, critters have been digging a lot, it could use some maintenance. None of this stopped us from having a great weekend.
@TuanT2154CCC17 · Camped on Nov 28, 2025 at Campsite #29
Location and campsite was good, but access to the bathroom was difficult during the visit. The closest to our campsite was down all weekend, the second closest has no light on the women side, so every trip needed a short drive to the main showers near the camp store. It was clean enough, but FAR.
@AndreaA2413770 · Camped on Nov 28, 2025 at Campsite #55
The campground infrastructure is not great. One bathroom completely out, the other very smelly Port-a-potties - we have to walk for 15 min to get to a working bathroom. Lots of crumbling buildings around the main store also.
@KirstenTC6D389 · Camped on Nov 27, 2025 at Campsite #87
Plenty of space at the campsite, pretty flat which made it easy for leveling the trailer. Hot showers by the camp store were available at all times. No cell service.
@LindaR3889509 · Camped on Nov 27, 2025 at Campsite #45
The camp sites were wonderful. There was a problem with the bathroom closest to us.
@AmandaB8644117 · Camped on Nov 26, 2025 at Campsite #112

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.
