Little to no shade at site 112. Showers are very old, but moderately clean. Picnic table was old, wooden, warped and had 3 nails sticking out. We never saw the campground host or the volunteer host.

Very nice park! There were plenty of spaces, some tighter than others but all doable, two dump stations friendly staff.

This is a wonderful RV park. We stated at site 129. It is peaceful, has lots of space for my dogs, and is centrally located. My only complaint is it could use a new picnic table. We are going back at the end of October and looking forward to it.

We are so proud to have a camp host that makes sure all the campground rules are followed. And contrary to what a lot of campers say the rules apply to everyone. Thank you Jeff and Lisa and all the volunteers that keeps Obey River campground a family friendly experience.

Over River park is close to home but is so beautiful. The park is well maintained. Our site was roomy. Only drawback is that the fire pit is close to our canopy. We extended our stay by another night because it was so beautiful.

What a beautiful park. Camp hosts were amazing and they had a church service on Sunday morning. That was wonderful. I wish every park had that because its very important when you are traveling. Thanks for a great stay. Would definitely return again

Park attendants were pleasant, quiet for the most part. Probably need to regulate electric bikes at night due to high speed drivers. Also the washer at the last bathhouse appears to not be working correctly, extremely long wash cycles, and no hot water wash

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.
