at that time that I was in this campground, there were no showers, it was closed however the payment for camping remained the same. There was a chemical bathroom that was at the entrance of the campground, not near the camping area where I was located. The camp itself was peaceful, the trees are pleasant to look at, there were a lot of shade.

Very nice walking trails and close to McDonald’s for ice cream in the evening. The electricity and water at our site was a nice touch. We also enjoyed our walk in downtown red Bluff. We had some very quaint shops.

It's always a good place for us. We enjoy the campgrounds, the walking paths and the bike rides while we are there.

Nice campground with trees and lots of space between sites. It seems that by now the regular bathrooms should be open again, but they are still only allowing use of porta-potties, which are not very fun to use after dark!

This campground is clean, well maintained and spacious. Lots of shade trees, several very long trails to walk along and right on the river. The host was welcoming and helpful. Red Bluff is super hot in the summer. I don't know if being near the river would ease this. The spring weather we had was mild and delightful. Huge, old Sycamore trees to delight and enjoy. Very quiet, yet only ten minutes to a Wal Mart, restaurants and gas stations. Sites are comfortable for smaller trailers and RV's, only saw a few sites that would fit the bigger rigs over 30'. Be aware there is a regular group of folks in about four campsites on the 24 site loop who appear to be homeless and living out of their cars/campers. They were clean, quiet and kept to themselves, but it definitely were living in a challenging situation. This was sad and did impact our stay. We would camp there again for sure, beautiful park!
