This is a nice place to camp if you are traveling along interstate 5. The sites are shaded by the trees but there isn't really any screening between sites so there is very little privacy. The campground host was very nice. There are clean restrooms and showers.

I like the campground, there are lots of shaded sites. This is my 3rd time at the campground and all was good except that the shower water would not go on. The temperatures had been up to 102 degrees the day before and I really was looking forward to taking a shower before continuing on my drive north into Oregon. It was an extreme let down that the shower water would not work. I felt very bad for the traveling nurse who needed to get to work and ended up having to wash her hair using the outside lawn watering hose.

The parks is lovely next to the Sacramento river in a shady sycamore grove. Easy access to Hwy 5 and near the town of Red Bluff. The host was quick to welcome us with a friendly greeting.

The campground itself is very nice, well groomed and clean. We have stayed here several times over the last 4 years and have noticed an increase in what seems to be homeless camping here. Our first time we stayed here the camp hosts told us that they were cleaning up the homeless camp sites and asking them to leave. Now it seems to be a problem again with homeless campers simply moving from site to site every couple of days. Law enforcement made 3 trips to the campground in one day responding to calls while we were there for our 4 day camp trip. I spoke to one of the deputies and he told me they try to cruise through on a regular basis to show there presence. It seemed to us that at least 50% of the campers there were homeless. The campsites looked very similar to homeless encampments you see on the streets in Sacramento. We will think twice before returning to Sycamore Grove campground in the future.
