Redwood River Retreat is located at Terwer RV Park in Klamath, California, and is surrounded by the beauty of Northern California’s redwoods. The property blends the peace of nature with the comforts of modern amenities, offering guests a place to relax and explore.
The park is just a five minute walk to the Klamath River, where guests can launch a boat, fish, kayak, or simply sit and enjoy the water. Back at the property, evenings are often spent around the fire pits under a sky full of stars, with the sound of the river nearby. Picnic tables and outdoor seating areas make it easy to gather for meals and conversation in a natural setting.
Heated showers and restrooms are available on site for added convenience. Wi-Fi access, fresh linens, and other essentials are provided so guests can travel light. Firewood is available for purchase, and help is always close by with on-site assistance and your hosts only a message away.
When you are ready to explore, the surrounding area offers unforgettable experiences. Redwood National and State Parks are minutes away, with trails that wind through some of the tallest trees on earth. Trees of Mystery provides a scenic gondola ride with sweeping views of the forest. Crescent City’s beaches and lighthouse are a short drive west, and the Klamath River is right at your doorstep for fishing and paddling. Local dining includes Willow Line Taproom for burgers and brews, Steelhead Lodge for comfort food on weekends, and Forest Café or the Log Cabin Diner for hearty breakfasts.
The property is currently being remodeled, which means each stay will only get better as improvements continue. Redwood River Retreat offers the chance to enjoy the simple pleasures of campfires, fresh air, and river life, all while keeping your packing light.

When you think of clean water, what do you see ? Prepare to be spellbound by the otherworldly colors and lucidity of the wild and scenic Smith River. Enjoy peace and tranquility while swimming in your own exclusive, private swimming hole. You may see four point bucks crossing the river, otters playing along the rocky banks and black bear gorging berry bushes while birds, ducks and dragonflys abound. This quasi resort provides a quaint, off grid tiny house with everything you need to feel comfortable but it is not The Four Seasons Hotel. The 1.5 quiet, secluded acres is detached from a world of artifical stimulation and crowds and is ideal for a couples getaway or small families. Entertainment is provided by means of a covered porch to observe the true residents: the wildlife.

Welcome to the Wild West Coast! Where the mountains meet the sea.
The campground is remotely located on private property and perfectly located for excursions to the Pacific Ocean, Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, the Smith River National Recreation Area, and the Pacific Coast Ranges and mountain lakes such as the Devil's Punchbowl, Buck Lake, and Raspberry Lake.
Relax and free you mind while camping on 120+ acres of private property under starry skies with almost no light or noise pollution. You are not alone on the mountain as other people live here in the wild. You only have access to the campground and a nearby pond. A locked gate with code access. The road to get there is two and a half miles up the mountain, the first mile is paved and the other mile and a half is gravel. The road is maintained by the county and used daily by others that live and work here. In the surrounding area you can enjoy hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, surfing, beachcombing, birdwatching, and countless other outdoor activities. French Hill Trail is a few more miles up the mountain road.
The campsites have picnic tables and fire rings, and campers are provided with 5 gallons of potable water. An outdoor, COLD-water Artesian shower, out in the open mountain air with the wild things and an outhouse with a compost toilet are also provided. Bundles of firewood are available for an extra charge when you book your campsite.
The campsites are set within a deciduous and pine forest at about 1913 feet in elevation. There is a pond on the property, but its purpose is for wildlife habitat ONLY, so water activities are NOT allowed. NO swimming, NO fishing, NO boating, NO trapping, etc. The wild things live here!
The property owner has a dog, three cats, and a menagerie of yard birds such as turkeys, peacocks, guinea hens, chickens, ducks, geese, etc. They do make noise! Kirk has lived off-grid for over twenty years and holds a wealth of information about the Gasquet/Del Norte County area.
Perhaps the most interesting feature of the property is that it has had documented Sasquatch encounters over the past twenty years that have been published in "Tribal Bigfoot" (D. Paulides 2009). Kirk can tell you about his experiences with this and other phenomena on the property.

4 nights at Azalea River
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Jacob's Riverside Gem! It's rustic enough to feel adventurous and homey enough to feel warm and comfy in the winter. It's obvious that Jacob has put a lot of heart and soul into this little cabin because of all the artistic touches you will find throughout. The firewood was well stocked, the property was beautiful with many fresh fungi to observe, and the little kitchen was perfect for making delicious meals. The fridge is quite small with no freezer, so if you want to bring fresh food for cooking, I recommend bringing a cooler. The shower is not far from the cabin, so it's easy to get a hot shower in and run back inside to the warm cabin. Make sure to bring your own bath towel. The bathroom is farther from the cabin, but I enjoyed the walk there, especially at night when I could look at the stars.
We didn't get to enjoy the outdoor space very much, seeing as we visited in winter, but we definitely want to come back in the summer to enjoy all that this little cabin and the Smith River area has to offer. If you're looking for a quaint place to stay while adventuring in the area, you've found the right place!

1 night at Azalea River
Jacob has really put in a labor of love on this land to help his guests, rest, reset and connect. Being able to take a shower outside and hike down and wade the waters of the river was unbelievable. It rained most of the time I was there so I didn't get to take advantage of the river much but the cabin was a cozy safe haven to cook dinner and brew my morning coffee in. I loved that I could camp there and then drive 25minutes and be hiking in the Jedidiah Smith Redwoods area. Close enough off the 101 you can really use it as a stop like I did however I can see how staying longer would mean even more glory along the river.
The cons are I found some metal scraps and screws on the ground walking around; just beware if you have kiddos. The hike down is well designed but it's definitely moderate and can be slippery. The ladder up the bed is not for the faint of heart!

Weekend Trip to Redwood River Retreat
We had an amazing stay! The location is perfect—just a short drive to Redwood National Park, yet peaceful and quiet. The trailer was spotless, very comfortable, and had everything we needed. We were even the very first guests to stay in it, which made it feel extra special. Cortney and Hiram are wonderful hosts—so kind, welcoming, and quick to respond to any questions. We would definitely love to come back and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Dreamy secluded spot on a stunning river edge. Simple unique cabin with everything you need to relax and unwind. We spent the entirety of our stay floating in the gorgeous Smith river and didn’t see one other person. Easy to get to but very hard to leave. It really was perfect. Thank you for having us and we hope to be back! Highly recommend.

This place truly is a Gem!! Loved being in nature and right on the Smith River and still having creature comforts like lights, cooking equipment, fridge, super comfy bed and a hot shower! This place is perfect for anyone seeking a cozy glamping experience :) The river really was the best part for me, I swam in it multiple times every day, the swimming spot is so perfect. Bring water shoes/Tevas, something of the soft if your feet are sensitive with rocks like mine are and you’ll be super comfy walking down to and into the water. Location is a great home base for Redwoods, Crescent City and Brookings, so many awesome hikes within a short drive. Looking forward to coming back and staying again! 11 out of 10!

Such a great gem and helpful host! I just needed a safe and secure place to hang with my dogs where I could close the gate and disappear. This place was perfect. The lil studio was clean and comfy, and the swimming hole/river access at the bottom of the hill was perfectly isolated to give me the space and time I needed to slowly introduce my dogs to water activities. I definitely recommend!

Absolutely primo private river spot. We stayed down there til dark and then watched the bats hunt. My only gripe is it’s quite hot upstairs for sleeping. A fan would have really helped. Also a sheet to put down on the futon because it was too hot to sleep on a blanket. Really cute little place!

Nice and pretty swimming hole, place had just enough amenities to make it comfy and easy. Good location, close to redwoods and the coast. There is a lot of traffic noise-- I camped in the clearing above the cabin. I was surprised to pay extra to bring a dog, but maybe that's typical for HipCamp? Jacob was kind and easy to communicate with. Thank you!

My family stayed here for two nights and truly enjoyed the experience. The queen sized bed in the loft was really comfortable and my son said the futon was nice, as well. The kitchen had all the essentials, but I would recommend a cooler for food and drink overflow. The mini fridge works well, but is tiny. The home runs on solar power so don't plan on plugging in tons of stuff for long... but being unplugged is what we wanted. The house cools off nicely in the evening with the windows open and there is plenty of shade in the yard, which includes a hammock and picnic table. The highway is on the other side of the river and produces some road noise but the sound of the river helps to drown it out. The privacy is by far this gems best feature. Not a soul in sight! The yard is fully fenced, as well, for the fur babies. The trail to the river was steeper than anticipated, so we quickly learned to wear something besides flip-flops for an easier climb back up. It is the perfect private swimming hole if you dare the cold water, which we did! We had the best time swimming, skipping rocks, and looking for all kinds of little creatures like frogs, lizards, and crayfish. We even saw a bald eagle fly down! There are also a couple of small fruit trees on the property and we tried what was probably the best plum known to anyone ever. Thank you for sharing your tiny home, Jacob!
