We arrived at our place, and we found another person already settled with a tent. She kindly booked us another place to stay.

It was a nice campground. Definitely a party vibe even though it was mid week. But everyone was respectful of the quiet hours

@AlexF8358570 · Camped on Aug 22, 2025 at Campsite #24

Hello all, let me tell you true story. The camp ground is nice, the campground host is nice but extremely soft to escalate issues and concerns. We had neighbors who were not following 10pm quiet time rule. This was acknowledged by host but no action taken as well as no follow up. Overall lack of control, ownership, neglect of higher management to work with difficult situations and avoiding the involvement.

Sites are not flat.. toilets need to be cleaner..

Vickey was awesome!!! Great campground:)

@JamesT8733204 · Camped on Aug 17, 2025 at Campsite #33

the campsite was good with shade. the campground was close to the river. the camp host was great. the only problem was the yellowjackets which came out whenever food was near.

@BrodyJ93B97912 · Camped on Aug 14, 2025 at Campsite #9

Site was on a very steep hill, which limited the area we had to use. There is really only one small area for a tent, and its right behind the table. Lots of bees in the area, which is no fault of the campground, but was annoying while cooking. We enjoyed the site, and the shade in the area. The only other downside, was the noise. It was probably just a couple groups that seemed to have been bumping music till midnight.

@JoseM9624235 · Camped on Aug 11, 2025 at Campsite #18

Our campsite was so hot with not much shade.

@EdwardP2635694 · Camped on Aug 8, 2025 at Campsite #13

Great campsite. Great location. Very friendly atmosphere. 13 was quite exposed! So when it was 100 degrees outside, it was an oven and the ground was super hot. Recommend RV or car camping for this spot - or in the fall / winter time!

@RebeccaH696815 · Camped on Aug 7, 2025 at Campsite #5

We loved our stay at Potwisha. It was rustic, with basic amenities- but was exactly what the area deserved. The walk and swim down to the river over the swinging bridge was something we will never forget

@BeverlyO139AB1 · Camped on Aug 5, 2025 at Campsite #22

Beautiful campground with large shady sites. Proximity to creek was a bonus. Bathrooms seemed well maintained but the lack of showers is always a downside.

@DeissyL5C4ADE5 · Camped on Jul 27, 2025

Excellent

@MichelleJ65569 · Camped on Jul 21, 2025 at Campsite #38

Interesting squirrel (and hawk) activity. The swimming area at the river was refreshing. The toilets could use more water pressure, as they tend to clog.

@AldieCE8F85049 · Camped on Jul 21, 2025 at Campsite #40

Loud mexican campers

@Richardso93F29 · Camped on Jul 20, 2025 at Campsite #12

No gostamos muito da nossa vaga, pois era inclinada e os banheiros no estavam limpos. A estrutura inferior a outro campings que ficamos. Estvamos de motor home de 22 ps e no tivemos dificuldades para estacionar. Nosso telefone no funcionou, operadora T-Mbile.

@ScottD5141264 · Camped on Jul 20, 2025 at Campsite #7

Too hotno shade. As a senior citizen I had to go home.

@JulietteL86F68 · Camped on Jul 17, 2025 at Campsite #6

I understand that when one goes camping, the desire is to be one with nature; it is what I seek too. However, when you book a campsite, you expect basic things.I know there is not much that can be done in cases like this but there was a huge yellow jacket problem here. We ended up leaving early because it was so unpleasant to do any cooking/eating while being swarmed. We also had an ant infestation in the bear box making it impossible to actually store any food in there. This was a first for me. The site itself was alright but the ground was not penetrable by stakes. We were also unable to find anybody until our second day when, as we were packing up, someone came by to check us in. Location wise, this is very far south and you can expect a lot of driving to get anywhere. Definitely, not a good spot if you plan on also visiting Kings Canyon.

@SamL4075452 · Camped on Jul 16, 2025 at Campsite #29

Great campsites located within the national park; it really saves you the drive everyday. Do lookout for indication of whether the campsite can accommodate rooftop tent camping or not.

@EricV1462766 · Camped on Jul 16, 2025 at Campsite #27

Pretty noisy campground with little vegetation/barrier/distance between sites. Fine if youre looking to stay up and hang out with friends but not so great if youre seeking quiet for sleeping before midnight. Also the bathrooms have very bright aging neon lights on the outside without shades, so my site was still very light at night.

@Stephanie53590 · Camped on Jul 15, 2025 at Campsite #24

Open skies for amazing viewing of the stars.

@HelderC7AAC34A · Camped on Jul 13, 2025 at Campsite #12

Very quiet and organized.

@QingyinCF6EA75 · Camped on Jul 12, 2025 at Campsite #13

Hot once sun coming out, but there is access to river, only 45 minutes driving to most sequoia trails.

@Seungtaek278EE · Camped on Jul 11, 2025 at Campsite #15

Quiet, spacious space; Water safe to drink; Clean, flush restroom

@RizwanT34BDD61 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #9

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.

@Wondering - Oregon

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
