    Playground
    Jennifer G.

    Unless you are traveling with your own RV with its amenities, I wouldn't recommend. The location is beautiful but that's it. We arrived at night and self checked in, were given the wrong cabin (from a 2 bedroom to just one room cabin-we are a family of 4 plus our dog traveling 12 hours pre booked 2 months ahead) they had no others available with only payment difference of 15 dollars. The only light on the outside didn't work and was never fixed. Restrooms were dirty, one of the sinks was "out of order" since we arrived with what appeared to be either facial or pubic hair...was never cleaned during our 4 day stay. Trash was never picked up we threw it out ourselves. Playground is outdated and with the black tarp popping out everywhere. Hours are not great 10am-3pm.It was such a disappointment coming from 12 hours away to a KOA so crappy, specially being a KOA!

    Great place to camp. Deluxe cabin came stocked and was clean. Friendly staff. Negative reviews do not do this place justice. 5 minute drive to smith river and redwood trails. We will be returning for sure!!

    It's in the Redwoods so that's a plus. The sites are set up kind of wonky. The first site was a pull through however the electric/water was at an encoder site, we would've had to unhook our vehicle from the trailer and move it around to the other side. They did accommodate us and move us to a site where we could stay hooked up. We have a nice pull through site. Staff are awesome! Corina and A mature lady at the desk, Debbie are wonderful and helpful,the lady to answered after hours number with an issue was ready to come over if needed. The restroom door in the ladies lock for the toilet did not match up, so my bathroom door was swinging. It doesn't look like anyone has cut grass in a while, some grass that is over a foot tall and there are some tall weeds that make it look seedier than maybe it actually is. Landscaping is in sad shape, except by office. The Wi-Fi is nonexistent. Claim to offer cable. My husband brought cable in case there is a need and hooked it up , it does not work. The redwoods area of this camp: so many have been cut down. It's sad looking. One reviewer claimed the new owner did this for money. The store is only open 6 hours a day. There are warning signs posted in the bathroom that bikes have been stolen. Apparently someone is coming in from outside the camp at night and cutting cables to steal bikes. Why wouldn't they hire some sort of security? Our neighbor had a nice chair stolen while they were out for the day. 'Holiday' needs to be removed from this KOA. There are goats but no petting zoo. There is a camping trailer outside of the front comfort station that has hoarded items piled up. I'm assuming it is someone that lives here? There is no handicap bath/shower on the ladies side of front restrooms. One shower is missing a bench. The showerhead came off in my hand. Only one shower door locked. And that one did not have any hooks to hang up your stuff. There are no staff onsite after hours. No security in the campground after hours. This place should have the name KOA removed from. We had just left a beautiful KOA in Lincoln City Oregon so this one is a shock.

    please clean the bathroom and fix the door shower! the camping site is super nice and very relaxing but the bathroom was super super super super super dirty very disgusting

    I have been staying in KOA's across the country for over 30 years. I have even stayed at this specific KOA before, as a child with my family. I can whole heartedly say that absolutely NOTHING has been upgraded since the last time I was here, in 1989. We had a late check in, but had made reservations month prior. When we arrived, there was barely any lighting to lead the way to your campsite. It was raining & MUCKY with mud. There were tons of fallen trees blocking the driveways to campsites & we even ended up getting STUCK, in the mud, in the dark with out 15 ft adventure trailer because of the poorly marked, poorly lit & poorly maintained campsites. We took a wrong turn & couldn't get out bec of all the downed trees & MUD. For over an hour in the pouring rain, we meticulously hand pushed our trailer out of the mud. We tried to call the after hours number for some assistance, no answer & no call back. There is zero security presence, there isn't even anyone that resembles a camp host onsite after hours. The bathrooms are LOCKED after hours which is absolutely POINTLESS. Why even bother getting a campsite if you can't use the bathroom in the middle of the night? Other campers told us of rampant theft in the area & we didn't feel safe leaving our camper there to explore the redwoods, so after the first night, we cancelled our remaining reservations & drove up to the KOA in Grants Pass. It's a real shame bec the surrounding redwoods are gorgeous but the "amenities" at this KOA are dilapidated & non existent. & they ban "pitbulls" which is high key ridiculous especially since two small dogs ran around the entire campsite, LOOSE & barking at everyone. My pit is my service animal & knowing they ban based on breed is disgusting. I will never stay here again. Zero stars but Yelp requires at least one. Which they don't deserve.

    Not the best KOA!!!! The camping cabin was nice and very clean. It was also surprisingly stocked with dishes and towels. However, the wifi did not work even though the cabin was 100 ft from the office. The site itself was horrible. Workers were operating golf carts out of a shed in front of our cabin until 9 at night kicking up gravel dust making our fire pit area unusable. The noise throughout the day was even worse as the property is being logged. We walked around and it looked horrible with all the stumps between cabins, tents, and RVs. I guess the owners wanted the log money versus return visitors.

    We having been coming to this KOA for over 10 years. The redwood forest was absolute magic and by far the best camping experience we had ever had. On our last visit we were shocked to see all the large redwood trees had been cut down. I almost cried. We found out that the new owner cut them down to make money. Tragic

    Very nice KOA. We typically don't go for pull through sites, but couldn't refuse the deluxe option. It included a deck with furniture and fire pit. We were assigned lot C12. The space between our neighbors was little to none. However, the great thing about all KOAs is that we always had considerate neighbors thus far. I highly recommend this KOA for tent campers. They have a loop at the rear of campground where it gives you that feeling of camping deep in the forest. If only I could park my travel trailer back there. Friendly staff and proactive on getting the information on hiking trails. Great location and just minutes to Oregon. Perfect for those who enjoy exploring the coast.

    Best small RV site?

    If you stay at koa only a few nights a year then it's not worth the membership.

    Do you have to be a KOA member to stay at KOA campsite?

    No, they offer a membership so you can earn points and a discount.

    September 7-10, 2025, Crescent City, CA…read more Campground is open from May through September. It's been a few years since I've camped here, but this campground remains one of the most beautiful I have ever camped in. Most of the sites are spacious and private. No cell service at all, so plan accordingly. There are quite a few camp hosts, so if needed, someone is around to help should you need assistance. The maximum length for a motorhome is 28 feet. Our motorhome is 27 feet, and the kiosk staff questioned us on the length. But we were within the limit, thankfully. Our motorhome is tall, so we were very careful to watch for low-hanging limbs, which was an issue last time we camped here. We had no problem on this trip, though. Unfortunately, they were doing some heavy "forest restoration" while we were there. So from 8:00 am - 4:00 pm there were various loud noises which ruined the peace of the campground. I'm not sure when this restoration will be completed, but I would check and make sure that it is not going on during your stay if quiet is important to you. (Check out Redwoods Rising to learn more about this important project to restore areas damaged by historical logging.) Another issue to be aware of is that even though there are some trails within the park; they are not maintained. We hiked the Alder Basin trail, and had to avoid a broken board on a bridge, hike over some downed limbs, and accidentally took a "short-cut" trail down the hillside, which we didn't realize until we arrived at the bottom and saw the "actual" trail. Although we didn't need it this trip, we were happy to see that they had an RV dump station. Unhappy to see, though, that they were short staffed and didn't have staff to work the kiosk at the entry. So sad. Despite the noise during our stay, the rough trails, and the lack of staffing at the kiosk, this is the most beautiful campground. I cannot give it less than 5 stars.

We've been to a few state parks that have redwoods, and yes, they're all awesome. Seeing those gigantic trees with all the lush ferns sometimes right on the ocean. The thing that struck me about this state park is it feels so remote,. It's tucked back onto the east side of Highway 101 and you have to drive down about 3 miles to the valley floor. There is absolutely no cell service when you get there. The campsites are spacious and again everything is amazingly lush with ferns, redwood trees, western Hemlock, and the like. They have some nice hiking trails and you can ride around on your bike if you like. Most of the trails don't allow dogs on them, and some of the trails are fairly steep and really not that well-maintained. They do have running water bathrooms with showers that take quarters.

It's magical to get to drive through and walkthrough the redwoods as it rained during our time here.

    I mean... wow. I went hiking here last weekend, and it honestly took my breath away…read more As a SoCal girl now living in NorCal, I've made it my mission to explore as much as I can around this beautiful state, and Jedediah Smith Redwoods completely stole my heart. These trees are absolutely massive, walking among them feels like stepping into another world. The light, the air, the silence... everything feels calm, ancient, and sacred. The trails are super well maintained, the weather was perfect, and there was plenty of parking even though it was busy. The roads and trails are a bit narrow, but honestly, that just adds to the charm. The river that runs through the park is crystal-clear and peaceful a perfect little spot to stop and take it all in. Standing next to those giant redwoods makes you realize how tiny you are in the best possible way. It's humbling and magical at the same time If you're driving from Eureka toward Crescent City, the entire drive is breathtaking, every curve along the coast looks like a postcard. You'll even pass through Elk Valley, and oh my god, there are actual elks just hanging out by the side of the road! They're so beautiful and so used to seeing people; it felt like nature welcoming you in. If you love hiking, nature, or just want to feel grounded and amazed, this place is a must. California, you really outdid yourself with this one.

An outdoorsy gal to match my own granola-ish tendencies, she chatted up a couple of locals at the gas station about nice beaches in the area. An old gnarly hippie, who most likely spoke Boontling as his native tongue, told us about Enderts Beach on the south side of town, and off we went to seek our own insular Tahiti in the cool, perpetual overcast of extreme NorCal. We pulled off Hwy 101 and started down the long stretch of two lane highway, flanked by blackberry briars and wildflowers, to a nondescript turnout and a deer path heading out toward the dunes. Soon, we were walking through long-standing spider webs, as garter snakes skirted across our path, appearing and disappearing just as quickly in the thick green blanket of grass and blackberry vines. Along the way, we picked handfuls of the wild berries and popped them in our mouths, savoring the sweetness of the fruit, and the equally satisfying beauty and solitude of this place. Just a few yards from the trail, a black bear busied herself with her own berry gorging, seemingly oblivious to our passing. Truly, this was one of the most wild and untouched places we had ever been, and so close to the highway. The beach itself is wide and clean, heavily influenced by the tide and the relentless surf that pounds this part of the California coast into submission. Sand crabs, sand dollars, shorebirds, and--at high tide with the right bait-- red tailed surf perch are plentiful. An osprey hunting fish outside the surfline was a welcome sight, as was the occasional bear that would lumber along where the blackberries met the sand. Lots of driftwood, agates on the rock piles, and sea glass polished by the surf made beach combing productive. SoCal beaches can't even begin to compare to this level of natural beauty, even off the beaten path spots like Padaro, Blacks, and El Capitan. If you ever have the chance to enjoy a beach like Enderts or many other spots from Southern Oregon down along the Lost Coast of California, please take a moment to see nature as the Great Programmer intended it. It truly is a Thin Place-- a location where the distance between heaven and earth are significantly closer than average.
