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.
