We stayed in sight number 15. It was a great experience and great spot to camp. This site is flat, easy to park trucks with trailers and easy access to water for our horses. Its a bit dusty at this point in the season, but overall, we had a wonderful experience!

The campsites are large. There was no potable water available at the time we were there. The site is so beautiful!

Great equestrian trails right from the campsite. Clean and safe! We will be back! Bring water for yourself, horses have taps.

Fantastic campground. We brought our horses and a good sized trailer and there was plenty of room. My only complaint is that there were empty non-horse sites (no corrals) but there were folks without horses staying in the horse sites. Maybe you should have to have a horse to stay in the horse specific sites kind of like other horse campgrounds? Just an idea.

Nice camp site, big spots well spread out so you don't feel like your right on top of your neighbors.

Both dumpsters were full and bear box in campsite 6 had a bag of garbage in it. Garbage was emptied the next morning luckily! Trail map posted would be helpful.

Excellent campground with awesome trails. Bathrooms are clean, and theres clean water for the 4 leggers. Love that the rangers drive through regularly, I feel safe. Will always go back.

An incredible amount of bugs that no amount of bug spray could beat. Everybody could see us, zero privacy.

We camped at spot #13. The spot was huge which was nice because we have a 32gt trailer. This spot has a lot of shade and some hammock trees. It is somewhat close to the bathrooms about a 2 min walk to either one. This spot has a horse area which I am sure would be nice if we had horses. There are a couple hiking or ohv trails you can access from the campground. The horse smell was minimal. I wish there was water to drink or play in so note you must be self contained. Very quiet and only a few people in other spots. Make sure to bring bug spray

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
