Best campsite by the Redwoods!

Tent ·

Amazing site! Quiet, far from crowds, potable water, electric, shower, toilet, firepit, this place had it all. It was a quick 15 minute drive to Humboldt Redwoods State Park. This was a much better place to camp than the crowded parks. At night, deer and turkeys ran around the field. Incredibly peaceful. I'll come back here again. 10/10.

The property was very nice and well kept. So much land for our dogs to enjoy. This place was so quiet we slept peacefully. There was deer and wild turkeys passing through our yard and we really enjoyed it. Lenny was very nice and full of information about the local area. We would definitely go there again and recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful place to stay.

Well-Equipped, Quiet Camp Spot

6 m campervan · Group trip ·

I tent camped with a group of four and had a great experience on this property! The site had all the comforts we needed—power, WiFi, a refrigerator, hot shower, and a port-a-potty. While the two camp/RV sites share amenities, there’s so much space that it never felt crowded or inconvenient. Lena and Bryan were kind, responsive, and very accommodating throughout our stay. We visited for the Avenue of the Giants Marathon, and the location was perfect distance-wise. The property is peaceful and beautiful, with plenty of flexibility to tailor your setup. My only tip: bring extension cords and check in with the hosts ahead of time to confirm which amenities will be available during your stay.

The property was beautiful. The host were courteous. The views were spectacular. 4 miles of bumpy road to get there, but it was worth it.

Beautiful spot, great view. Very nice to have power, potable water, Wifi, and a port-a-pot to avoid filling up our black tank. We were the only ones there, which made it extra nice. If multiple people were there, it looks like they’d be lined up end to end. Nice Adirondack chairs and picnic table under a lighted shade tree. Hosts were very friendly when they met us upon our arrival.

Great site! Brian welcomed us and explained everything about the place. Nice and quiet, went for a short walk down the road and had a nice evening. Views of the valley and surrounding hills. April is great time of year to visit.

We weren’t able to find the host upon arrival but were able to find our campsite. It would have been great get a bit more info from them, for example the wifi password, but we did okay! Everything was in good repair and the portable toilets were clean. We didn’t try the outdoor shower…it was pretty chilly…so can’t comment. The view was nice and we had the place to ourselves.

Huge open vistas of mountains and trees. Lovely setting and fun lights and camping set up. Great wifi. Road to site was a bit steep and narrow but our trailer managed and less intimidating when we left. Outdoor shower was a great perk

Nice spacious sites for tent camping, with hot shower and electricity. Horseshoe pits and basketball hoop were nice to have. Campfire ban was a bummer: it’s important to be safe and we were surprised to see campfires in state and county campgrounds nearby.

I’m afraid to write a glowing review out of fear this place will become very popular. Spectacular site, beautiful view, great greeters showing us all that it has to offer! Highly recommend, just leave a spot so I can return soon

Relaxing spot near the big trees

6 m travel trailer ·

Salmon Creek MV Retreat was a great spot to take our 20’ trailer. Actually a hidden gem and exactly what we were looking for when we downloaded the Hipcamp app. The property is on a big flat ridge with easy trailer turn around and parking space. Big metal shed/barns are on the property but don’t deter from the ambiance. Open field, horse properties, pond, mountain and big sky views. Many birds and other wildlife abound. Take note… Only 12 minutes from Miranda on a narrow rough paved road. Bring extra power cord and fresh water hose extensions for flexibility in setting up in the best spot. Sites are not all that level. #2 under the trees was a prefect location. Electrical, water, portapotty and fun outdoor shower are easy access. Miranda Market/Gas (great grocery store!) has a $13 OR with +$50 gas fillup free Dump Station. Close Redwood +-5 mile long day hike with some nice elevation gain is close by Miranda too. Combine Stephen’s Grove Loop with Dry Creek Trail. Enjoyed hanging out at the peaceful camp site and not driving far for some awesome river, big tree, hiking, rest and relaxing. Host and neighbors we met were great!

Majestic spot in the mountains

5 m travel trailer ·

The land is majestic with views of rolling hills, deer, horse and the beautiful sky. The hosts are very accommodating and meet you on arrival to make sure you get set up. It’s always nice having full hook ups. They have an extra fridge for you to use in case you have a lot of food or beverages to store. There are many things to check out locally like the avenue of the giants, wineries and yummy food. We loved it!

Tent · With pets ·

The area was really beautiful with Avenue of the Giants and Richardson Grove State Park a close drive away. There was some inconsistency in what was written on the Hipcamp app and what the camp manager said, though. I reserved the 6-person tent camping site on the Hipcamp app, which included amenities like the porta-potty and camp kitchen. When we got to the site, the manager came over on an ATV and told us the tent camping area was on this expanse of grass with little to no shade. He said he would to upgrade us to the RV camp site at the top of the hill, nestled under three beautiful trees (we were the only campers that weekend). He said that, since he was upgrading us, we could use the amenities –– porta-potty, camp kitchen, and newly built camp shower. But the app said those were already included in the reservation. Although we were able to enjoy these amenities, I feel like the app description and the camp manager should be on the same page. Another important issue with the campsite is the noise. There were neighborhood dogs that barked seemingly all night (at least until 2am). I was glad I didn't have any reactive dogs with me during my stay, but the noise from the neighborhood dogs nevertheless made it difficult to fall asleep. I have not decided if I would stay at this location again, but I definitely would choose the RV site over the tent site if I had a choice.

Private, spacious, pretty area

Tent · Group trip ·

The hosts were very nice and respectful with our privacy. There's plenty of space in the campground, with a well-prepared porta patty but no shower (only non-potable water from a spigot next to the campsite, which for us was more than enough to quickly wash our bodies and the dishes). The views around the campground are really pretty and there's a great relaxing feeling (no noises at all). Taking into account how immensely pretty the nearby Humboldt Park is, I would definitely stay here again

Exceptional campsites with Solitude

Tent · With kids ·

This is now one of my favorite Hipcamp spots. The location is great, you are not going to be around a bunch of other campers. The hosts are super nice and have put a lot of work into their property to make 4 awesome spots. Ports potties were nice and clean, the campsites had plenty of flat ground and ours had afternoon shade. The “camp kitchen” was sweet, a nice propane grill, microwave, fridge and tables all tucked in under a roof. It made prepping food super easy. Lots of wildlife, fresh air and fun. Can’t say enough good things about the hosts, I’ll be coming back for sure!!!

I had a wonderful time at this campsite! Beautiful views, regular appearances from deer, and very generous spirited hosts. They got me out of a jam when I couldn’t level my trailer which meant a lot to me. Would happily stay again!

Van campers!

6 m campervan · With kids ·

The kids and I really a enjoyed our stay. While it was just a few mile drive from the avenue of the giants, it was certainly far enough to feel secluded. The views of the surrounding ranges were spectacular. They provided a large outdoor stove (we used it for a couple meals), fridge, and dish washing station. They are planning to add some spots and we plan to come back. We highly recommend this spot if you are van campers or someone looking to avoid the crowds and noise of the highway.

We loved our peaceful stay

We loved our stay here! The land is beautiful. The pond and Mountain views are gorgeous and this space is very quiet and peaceful. Mary Jo and Rich were above and beyond accommodating and hospitable and gave us plenty of information on the area and made us feel at home immediately. There are lots of awesome additions here like the outdoor shower, toilet, bbq, trash, etc that a lot of other hip camps don’t have, and we loved that we were right in the redwoods and such a close drive to some really beautiful scenic spots. We had a really rejuvenating stay here and would definitely come back!
