What Guests Are Saying
The Russian River Campground offers a beautiful and well-maintained environment, with spacious sites and helpful staff, making it a favorite destination for many visitors. Guests appreciate the scenic hiking opportunities, including a popular trail to the falls, and the campground's proximity to fishing spots. However, challenges with the reservation system, road conditions, and maintenance issues, such as the dump station being frequently closed, have led to some frustration among campers.

getting a reservation now is almost impossible. Getting consecutive nights is even more difficult. It’s no longer worth the effort to attempt to piece together a stay at the russian. It requires multiple reservations, breaking camp to move. Go back to the way it was. You have people signing up for all the dates the re-selling like scalpers.

The manager & staff were very competent & helpful. This is primarily a salmon & trout fishing destination. There is a great & easy hike 2.3 miles up to the Falls where salmon stage before their movement up the narrow series of boulders and waterfalls to their spawning grounds. Always carry & know how to use bear spray. You will see bear - both black and brown bears. Salmon fishing is mid June to end of August. Crowded and camping sites in high demand.

The tree branches on the King Salmon loop need to be trimmed back from the road. I have a 28' trailer and the tree limbs scratched the back end of the camper. There is not enough room to avoid the limbs. There is no way that a 49' camper/motorhome would fit in that campground (as state on the website).

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
