A great place with spacious campsites for a quiet escape. Super good hosts.
@KristiBACBBED8 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #28E
This was one of the cleanest campgrounds. The host does a truly excellent job maintaining this underrated facility. It is gorgeous, there are plenty of restrooms. They are cleaned and well maintained. The campsites are roomy and have great amenities. There are places to fill your RV, and some electrical sites. We have a 35' travel trailer and easily fit and parked at our site. We will definitely return. Loved this 'under the radar' camping facility.Signs for tent camping could be improved, but that takes some financial investments.

This was a great campsite! Sites were very spacious, and there were convenient water stations located every 2-3 sites. They also had flush toilets and sinks, and they were the cleanest campground bathrooms I've ever seen. Some sites were very sunny and got hot even early in the morning, so definitely review the pictures closely before choosing. There are cool artifacts and hiking trails as part of the campground and amazing views of numerous mountain ranges across the Four Corners area. Highly recommend!

The campground hosts are awesome. There are a few trails to hike in the area but access to the lake is difficult.
@CherylB3572926 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #18
Nice campground, clean bathrooms, ran into the hosts once and said hello, but they never came by my campsite to check on things. They seemed nice though. My site was large with plenty of space between me and the next site, overall pleasant campground.
@GinoG3709568 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #1E
Original site 001E is undesirable and unlevel. Friendly host Nan suggested 10E and it was very nice near restroom and several deer.
@WayneH9910250 · Camped on May 15, 2025 at Campsite #22E
The campground itself is nice but could use some improvements and maybe open the dump station again.
@stevennFCF5EA5 · Camped on May 5, 2025 at Campsite #1E
Campground itself is five-star, but reservation info is not always accurate. The reservation info states that there is a dump station available but there is not since it was closed permanently some time ago due to inadequate design. Also some sites have the wrong photos. We booked site 1E in the juniper loop which turned out to be one of the worst sites in the campground (small and uneven with no privacy at all). The site photos shown on reservation page under 1E were actually of the site across the road which is one of the best sites in the campground but is also occupied by the camp host and unavailable. Fortunately it was early season and we were able to shift to another nicer electric site without issue but if we had been stuck in 1E I would have been pretty PO'd. Most of the campsites are really nice. Good separation and lots of choices with electric. Also more community water spigots than shown on the map. Bathrooms are nice and clean with flush toilets (not just pit toilets). Some of the non-electric tent sites on the outside of the loop are also very nice and very private. Camp hosts were great. Overall a great campground poorly presented on the reservation web site.

Campsites in juniper loop all had a lot of trees and walk on 2 and 3 had spectacular views. Host left a note with some info in my campsite I found very useful so tha was also really appreciated. Water spouts and toilets around the walk one were all functioning and very clean.
@CarmelG76B1AD4 · Camped on Aug 30, 2024 at Campsite #17
Great bathrooms, nice fire pit. Great hosts.
@ColistaR69E953 · Camped on Aug 14, 2024 at Campsite #34E
Definitely a pleasant experience. It's a little out of the way but the campground is nicely laid out with trees and shady spots as well as open areas for camping in cooler times. The hiking trail was well maintained and the Camp Host was very helpful explaining to us where the trails were and how to get water. I would camp here again in a heartbeat.
@OlinW6661182 · Camped on Jul 29, 2024 at Campsite #35E
Beautiful spot. Friendly campground hosts. Good fishing and super friendly marina folks!
@WindyV985AEEB0 · Camped on Jul 26, 2024 at Campsite #27
Our campsite was well maintained but the Host, Nan and Rolf, are beyond kind, polite, respectful and made certain we were comfortable. they were available if we needed anything. We will definitely be back if for no other reason than because of the hosts. Each site is spacious and even better is there is space between and site and privacy if you want. Offering Electrice site if needed, and non as well. Only improvement would be to reopen the RV Sani Dump station.
@ClydeJ17FF3166 · Camped on Jul 25, 2024 at Campsite #34E
The camp hosts were Great!
@LisaM2898345 · Camped on Jul 10, 2024 at Campsite #7E
Loved it. Very nice, clean and quiet.
@DanielC8838163 · Camped on Jul 7, 2024 at Campsite #10E
Very good camp hosts and facilities - clean restrooms. Only downgrade for the site is the electrical power which was overloaded in the heat of the evening when many had their air conditioners on. Electrical infrastructure needs to be made more robust.
@DavidB4421384 · Camped on Jul 6, 2024 at Campsite #29E
Wonderful park. Staff were fantastic. Campground was well maintained. Camp host was very helpful. We will definitely be back for more
@FadiH6FA4C16A7 · Camped on Jun 29, 2024 at Campsite #29E
Great campsite, very quiet and rural. A bit outdated but the scenery makes up for it. We picked 29E Pion and that spot had full hookup which was amazing.
@RobertF6718628 · Camped on Jun 21, 2024 at Campsite #7E
Electric site, requires ext cord to reach but I knew that and was prepared. About 1 -- 2 bars on Verizon, good enough. Clean restrooms. Lots of birds and some deer, very nice.Need to resurrect the dump station.
@DanielB4603573 · Camped on Jun 17, 2024 at Campsite #35E
everything was great !!
@SallyK4303968 · Camped on Jun 14, 2024 at Campsite #4E
We really liked this campground. The spaces feel private because they are spaced apart from each other, and the trees help offer a nice environment too.
@DebbieD9084354 · Camped on Jun 8, 2024 at Campsite #10E
Our group enjoyed hiking, kayaking, and exploring the area. The campground restrooms had flush toilets cleaned multiple times per day. Verizon cell phone coverage was good.
@Elizabeth65B4F · Camped on Jun 2, 2024 at Campsite #28E
Clean bathrooms. Friendly camp hosts.
@JulianneC35DA9 · Camped on May 27, 2024 at Campsite #28E
We stayed in Juniper Loop site 28E. The site includes a covered picnic table and 30 amp electricity. Short walk to flush toilets. Close to water spigot. Nice spot with sufficient privacy. Camp hosts were very amenable.
@ShaneM5636433 · Camped on May 7, 2024 at Campsite #10E
The host would not allow me to fill with water. Had to drive 40 mins back to Cortez to fill.

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.
