Klamath, CA · 32 sites · Tents, RVs
Welcome to Terwer RV Park, a family-owned campground tucked near the edge of Klamath Glen on California’s North Coast. The park has been welcoming guests for more than 40 years, and we’re honored to be part of its next chapter. Around here, we like to call it Klamath’s Best Kept Secret.
Surrounded by redwoods, river access, and quiet coastal beauty, Terwer RV Park is a simple, old-fashioned place to camp. We are not a luxury resort, and that is part of the charm. You will find open space, scattered trees, RV sites, tent camping, fresh air, and a slower pace.
The Klamath River is just over the levee, only a short walk from camp. It is a beautiful place to fish, swim, or sit by the water. The river is known for salmon and steelhead fishing, and a valid fishing license is required. During peak fishing season, especially in August and September, you may hear early morning activity from guests heading out to the river.
We are located about 4 miles off Highway 101, close enough for easy access but far enough away to enjoy a quieter stay. Wildlife is common in the area, so please secure your food and trash at night.
There is plenty to explore nearby, including Redwood National and State Parks, Trees of Mystery, Klamath River Jet Boat Tours, coastal viewpoints, hiking trails, biking routes, and quiet places to wander among the redwoods.
A few things to know before you book:
-Firewood is available on site.
-Cell service can be spotty depending on your carrier. Free Wi-Fi is available and reaches most of the campground.
-Electric vehicle charging is $10 per charge and must be arranged ahead of time. 50 amp service is limited, and guests must provide their own adapters.
-Well-behaved pets are welcome.
-Kids and laughter are always welcome.
-We offer dry camping, 30 amp sites, and 50 amp pull-through sites.
-Late arrivals are okay. If you plan to arrive after 10:00 p.m., please text us before 9:00 p.m. so we can send you check-in instructions.
Terwer RV Park is rustic, peaceful, and easygoing. We look forward to welcoming you.

We are happy to make suggestions for local hiking areas, like the Devil's Slide "Gorge" only a 15 minute drive but like a trip to mini Yosemite. The Caldor Fire was VERY close to our property and a back burn was initiated nearby the our house (literally 200' away!).

For our standard tent or RV sites, the sites include a picnic table and a propane fire pit with propane for heating/ambiance only. You should plan to pack everything you would usually expect to bring with you to a typical Forest Service or State Park campground... For example: propane camp stove or equivalent with your own propane/fuel for cooking, extra tables for your personal camp set-up needs, shade tents or pop-ups, games or camp activities, camp cots/pads/air mattresses, camping bedding, tents, camp chairs, etc. We are happy to answer any question you may have!

Trailer campsite #1 is cozy with full hook-ups, a table, and oak trees and greenery with a short walk to the river. The grounds are so inviting with iron artwork and beautiful plantings. Rocki is charming and fun to chat with.
The two sides of hot springs are filled with mineral waters--we knew we were being rejuvenated. We enjoyed sharing the springs and interesting conversations with others. We do recommend this quiet, secure get away spot next to the river.

We had a great one night stay at RockNWater Cove Camping! We stayed in Curley w/ an RV but definitely want to return to camp at one of the tent spots. The hosts, Kris and her husband, were super nice and answered lots of questions we had. The river access is really pretty w/ a nice beach area. Plusses are flush toilets, showers, propane fire pits with propane provided, potable water and electric hook ups. Looking forward to going back next summer!

Super easy check in and check out. Camp site was perfect though a little close to the neighbors. Showers, restrooms and trash cans were all well maintained. Food and coffee was close. The river is pretty amazing. If the camp sites by the river are full, it can get a little crowded and noisy down there. Epic place. Hosts were awesome

Mill Creek Resort is magical! This is the perfect location for exploring Lassen National Park or just being. The grounds are lovely and Mill Creek runs along the edge of the property. I stayed in an rv spot and those sites are close together, but I didn’t mind and I appreciated the convenience of having water, power and sewer hook ups. There was a small creek running behind the rvs, which is nice sound to fall asleep to. Nice people there and a really great vibe. I will definitely be back!

The location was lovely and the hosts were very generous and kind. It's a very small campground which makes it feel private and quiet. We loved it.

Upon arrival Paul greeted us and gave us a quick run down. Very friendly! Kris stopped by to check on us and make sure we were all good. The campsite was perfect, and it was so nice having a fire pit avaliable. The bathrooms were convenient and clean; the sinks with soap were a plus! The short walk to the beach was actually very beautiful. The water was absolutely breathtaking. The kids had a blast! Would definitely campsite here again and again! Thank you so much for sharing your little slice of heaven with us!

We had quite the thrilling experience driving into Shelter Cove. Picture this: we had just picked up our rented RV in San Francisco that day and, after a long journey, we found ourselves navigating those windy, steep roads in the dark. It was definitely a white-knuckle ride and not for the faint of heart!
We arrived pretty late, but the staff at the check-in had thoughtfully prepared a packet for us, which made the process smooth and easy. They were incredibly kind and welcoming, which was such a relief after our intense drive.
Once we settled in, we were treated to absolutely breathtaking views. I couldn't get enough of the stunning scenery. And as if that wasn't enough, we even had some live entertainment watching the sea lions! We spent over an hour mesmerized by their antics – it was such a delightful and unexpected treat.
Despite the nerve-wracking drive in and out, the whole experience was undoubtedly worth it. Shelter Cove is a hidden gem that offers unparalleled beauty and charm.

Space Larry was a great experience, and I’d absolutely choose it again. Kris and her husband were incredibly kind and checked in on us daily to make sure everything was going well. I reached out to Kris a few times with random questions, and she always responded quickly and was very accommodating. Overall, it was a wonderful stay and a memorable addition to our trip!
