Great little campground. Friendly host.
Campsites and Utilities (Electric and water) are backwards--on the wrong side of modern rigs. Door should be on table and campfire side.

We enjoyed ourselves stopping here on the way from San Diego to Portland, so we decided to stay two nights on the way back to San Diego. This is a wonderful place to hike and go birding along the Sacramento River. We saw a bald eagle on our birding adventure around the trails that surround the park. The restrooms were clean and the quarter shower was sufficient. We will most assuredly return on our next trip north.

The campground was tidy and well run. Our host was welcoming and helpful. Showers were clean and the cobwebs noted on our last visit we’re gone.

Was a nice quiet place on the Sacramento River. I prefer this to large campgrounds. Plenty of walking paths and pretty area.

The campground at Sycamore Grove is quite nice, although I thought I might be able to see/access the Sacramento River from the camp area. Views of the river are blocked by vegetation, but you can access the river shores from the day use area, a short walk away. The trails are really nice and we enjoyed walking on them.
You can hear a bit of I-5 noise from the campground but it is not overly intrusive. The camp host was very pleasant and informative. However the mens room shower needs repair. I tried the handicapped shower, and it never got warm. The upper nozzle was limp and hanging straight down, and the lower nozzle was missing , resulting in a painful jet of not really warm water. Since I had already put in my coin and was naked, I stayed in that shower and it was not pleasant. My wife took a shower in the woman's side and reported it hot and fine.
Having been to many campgrounds this would have been a 4 star, but dropped to a three star due to the shower. It was calm, and peaceful overnight, the electricity worked, and it's very convenient to those traveling on I-5.

Nice, level campsites generously spaced apart. Pit toilets were pretty bad with no locks on the doors. Quiet even though close to I5.

Loved the beautiful walking/biking trails.
Campground was clean and quiet. We saw an albatross, a fox and many deer.
