Beautiful Redwood forrest trails and wild huckleberry's to pick for breakfast or snacks. The river is full of wildlife turtles, frogs, eels & raccoons. Love it!
Good place for bikes and kids.
Make sure you don't grab a tent spot next to an RV spot.
Loud - lots of people and depending on their camping manners you might be listening to their loud music until 2am and have 15 kids running through your campsite at 5am. Rangers don't really enforce the #of people per campsite or quiet hours. Fun to be near the river though, and is beautiful.
I've been here so many times, and it gets better every time. Great location for exploring, beautiful Redwoods and big fairly spread out campground. Sold!
Your shirtless host reporting on Hendy Woods S.P.
I think this S.P. is the ultimate escape.
This ancient Redwood forests is only about 3 hours from San Francisco.
The trees our est. to be 300' tall and could be up to 1000 years old. Hike around the massive stumps and fallen trees and the red wood groves.
The day use and the picnicking area is on the banks of the Navarro river-over looking the the Big Hendy Grove.
The camp hosts @ this camp keeps the camp sites clean and well maintained.
This park has a dump station
Make sure you hike the nature trails though out the park.

Nicely kept campsites with a good amount of privacy. Try to snag a spot on the outer side of the outer road for even more privacy. Good hiking trails from the campgrounds but mostly just to walk amongst the redwoods rather than vertical climbing. Showers are coin operated so bring quarters or save water!
You can't go wrong here! Nearly every single campsite is spacious and flat, though we prefer the ones on the outer perimeter rather than the inside. Bathrooms here are spacious and clean (even the showers)!
