    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 Playground is outdated and with the black tarp popping out everywhere.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.

    Ask the Community - Crescent City / Redwoods KOA

    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.

Beach clean and dogs are allowed, watched horses running up the beach, ocean waves very calm, great restaurants walking distance. Bathrooms very clean but Antiquated, no hand soap dispensers in the bathroom. Laundry room very nice 4 washers Gabriel is very helpful on the phone, Campground host is great, he is very helpful and diligent on monitoring the sites!!

When I made reservations online, only four spots were available to choose from. When I chose a spot and got here to check in, someone was in my spot. I called the office and was told I can choose the next four to five spots that they were open, but I'm lying. They appeared to be taken. From the pictures online it looks like the beach and ocean are close, they are not!!! There are several bushes that block your view, and if you wanted to walk to the ocean you would have a very long walk. Spaces on the concrete and spaces on the electrical boxes do not match up. Most electrical boxes look dangerous. No cable and No TV reception. SEE PICTURES

And, if you're lucky enough to get a space at Ocean Views RV Park, you're definitely lucky. Across the street is the ocean. Ocean Views is a small, clean, quiet, and relaxing RV park in Smith River, California. Only 4 miles from the Oregon border. Across the street is the Pacific Ocean and her miles of amazing, beautiful, rugged beaches (see pics). A wonderful retreat from the craziness of life. Solid consistent Wi-Fi. We like to turn on a YouTube fireplace in the mornings & evenings. The NEW owners at Ocean Views are great!!! My wife and I are healthy adventurers and have spent the last few years traveling around in our motorhome and enjoying our beautiful country. We've been to over 40 states, and this is perhaps our very favorite destination!!! Plus, it's the first summer ever that we didn't need to turn on our air conditioner. Total comfort. Some affectionately refer to the area as the banana belt because of the consistent moderate year-round temperatures. Also, there is usually a nice, gentle breeze. AMAZING BEACHES: You can walk or drive to the Beaches. Fly kites. Wind surf. Collect shells, sand dollars, pretty rocks, build driftwood beach houses, or driftwood art. We actually walked to Oregon and back via the beach (4 hr round trip -- mucho fun - and we've done it twice so far). Or you can just do nothing. That's also fun. Sitting and watching the ocean is like watching the Earth breathe. But once you start exploring, you discover Sea Otters, lots of Seals, and Sea Lions. In the evening until sunset, you can watch the seals and pelicans dive near the shore for their fish dinners. Sunsets are often breathtaking. Lucky 7 Casino is about 2 blocks away. It's a nice, small tribal casino/ hotel with a good restaurant and bar. Lucky 7 gas station / convenience store always has the best fuel and propane prices. Brookings, Oregon is only about 8 miles North. Crescent City, California is only 18 miles South. The drive to either is always enjoyable. But watch out for deer & Elk. Brookings: Cool Marina area to explore. Fred Meyer is a great supermarket. Good prices and fun place to shop. Pretty town. Small movie theater (been there). Lots of shops and so many excellent restaurants. Le Flour de Mexico had delicious crab enchiladas & excellent margaritas. DQ (Dairy Queen) for a dip cone (yum). Wild River Pizza. Mattie's Pancake House (awesome online menu). And many more awesome eateries we still look forward to enjoying!!! Nice self-service car wash across from the DQ. We drive to Brookings to wash our Jeep and RV. It's funny to tell friends and family, "Yeah, we had to drive to Oregon to wash our Jeep." ha ha. Crescent City: Safeway with good cinnamon rolls, Walmart, Home Depot. Lots of stores, shops, excellent restaurants. Many fun places to eat. And also, a nice movie theater (been there). In addition to the usual theater snacks like popcorn, we discovered they also make fresh cotton candy & have pool tables. We enjoyed walking around the Marina and seeing the huge commercial fishing boats. Great fish and chips, and shrimp and chips at the Chart Room on the waterfront at the Marina. Nice beaches. And a working Lighthouse. Other stuff to do: Redwood forest. Kayak down Smith River, and so much more!!! All of the above creates a GOOD kind of to-do list. Just a few of the many reasons why we fell in love with the area and our base camp at Ocean Views RV Park. At the time of this writing, we started our third month!!! Lovin it & having a hard time leaving. Hope you love it also. Everything is so close and fun to explore.

    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.
