Excellent campground, restroom was kept very clean. Would have stayed longer but it was booked out.

This is such a beautiful campground, especially in the Fall. The Ponderosas are majestic against the Fall foliage. The campground hostess, Bridget, is helpful and friendly.

We made our reservation on line and payed our money five days in advance. When we arrived someone else was in our camp sight. Our name wasn't on the camp sight post and later when the camp host came, there was no record of confirmation that we had made a reservation! I wasn't a happy camper.

Great location. Great campsites. Water, but should have garbage collection!
@NelsN8E5BCA80D · Camped on Sep 11, 2025 at Campsite #12
Camp host is second to none! Clean kept grounds and restrooms. One of our fave spots.

My 9th season in Ponderosa. This was the first year Monday night (Labor Day) could be reserved instead of FF. To my surprise, the rest of the month also changed from FF to A and someone reserved the site I intended to stay in out from under me. Had I not found out at the last minute, I would have been set up for 10 days when the other folks arrived. The statuss were all changed sometime in that last week prior to Labor Day. I will pay closer attention next year as the date gets closer. Not even the campground Host was aware of the change.Luckily I was able to find an alternate site and reserve it for the remainder of my stay.Love the campground!!Stayed in #6 many times, until it was decided to turn that site into a Double Site and charge a double fee. The only change made to it was adding a second table & benches. Everything else is the same as it has been for years. The available ground space is less than it used to be due to the installation of the second table on a concrete pad. Driveway is still only single wide.

Campground was clean, bathrooms clean and stocked with tissue, water available.
@RachelleB2D433 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #21
Beautiful campsites with plenty of shade with the babbling of Salt Creek right there.
@ReneeP5375547 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #7
It's always awesome to visit. Bridgette is welcoming and checks in on you, just the right amount of time. Not too much, but enough to let you know shes' there if you need her.
@GaryJ4132252 · Camped on Aug 7, 2025 at Campsite #6
Beautiful campground. The ponderosa trees offer great shade and uniqueness !Clean restrooms and facilities
@AlysonB6E8ED5A · Camped on Jul 23, 2025 at Campsite #19
Absolutely beautiful! The 100+ year old ponderosa pines were a real treat. The camp is beautifully kept and well stocked. The cement pads surrounding the picnic tables and fire rings are a nice luxury. Salt creek running through camp made for a lovely soundscape. Site 19 is small small small. Barely enough room for one 6 man tent. Its set up on a hill so there is no room to expand. One side of camp slopes down the road, the other side is fenced and has a steep slope down to the creek. Access to hop the fence and go down the creek is right next to camp. Its nice to only have campers on one side of you. There is no site on the other side which gave a bit more privacy and solitude. All around lovely camp that me and my kids cant wait to come back to.

Nicely shaded. Right next to the river. Neighbors are really close though.

Nicely shaded. Right next to the river. Really close to another campsite, so youll have neighbors.
@JessicaB869322 · Camped on Jul 3, 2025 at Campsite #17
Beautiful site
@PaulR7699704 · Camped on Jun 23, 2025 at Campsite #15
This is a great campground. Double check the water. It seems to be hit or miss on if their water is working. Other than that the sites are well spread out and shaded. No cell service, but that is a positive in my opinion.
@SharonS7186721 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #17
Our stay at The Ponderosa was great! The Host does a great job at keeping the campground so clean! She is so friendly. The only complaint we have is when we reserved our campsite there was no mention about the potable water not being available. It was an inconvenience and I think we shouldnt have been charged the whole price. Such a beautiful campground. We will be going back again.
@MarieB7186093 · Camped on Jun 16, 2025 at Campsite #12
We have camped at Ponderosa many times and have loved it! But this time they did not have any water and we were not notified ahead of time, we would have liked to have been notified. We had to go back to town to fill up our tank at a gas station.
@MitchellFDC603 · Camped on Jun 15, 2025 at Campsite #4
Great campground. Clean sites and very clean bathroom! Camp host is extremely nice and works hard to keep the area looking nice.
@TroyHB6683E9BF · Camped on Jun 13, 2025 at Campsite #20
Always a nice spot.
@RobertG6814422 · Camped on Jun 10, 2025 at Campsite #3
Nice campground with paved roads and parking spots. The picnic table and fire pit are on a nice concrete patio. Our campsite (#3) overlooks the stream. There are several nice hiking trails is the area, but not right at the campground.
@SalG57C772DB87 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #18
This campground offers a nice experience, marked by its location that balances sun and shade. This allows guests to comfortably enjoy daily activities, enhancing overall satisfaction.
@SalG57C772DB87 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #19
This campground surpassed our expectations in every way. Nestled in a picturesque setting, its prime location allowed us to bask in the warm sunlight during the afternoon while providing ample shaded spots perfect for relaxing during the hotter parts of the day. The balance between bright, sun-drenched areas and incredible, shaded retreats was impeccable, catering to our every need and ensuring a delightful experience throughout our stay.

NO WATER! Our poor camp host told us that she was having trouble with water Repair and was having to go into town to collect water for hand washing at the bathroom and also for cleaning up the bathrooms. She said some repairman came and looked at the part needed for repair of the water supply and left and never came backCamp host was amazing! and very apologetic about the water. She was told it would be fixed in a few days and that was days before we showed up.Campsite was clean and well cared for the bathrooms were amazingly clean

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.
