Next to the River
20 sites · RVs, Tents4 acres · Klamath, CA
We have been a family owned RV Park/Campground for over 40 years. This is a very rustic, old-fashioned campground located at the end of a neighborhood next to the river.
As mentioned this is also a RV Park so there will be RVs on site. It is an open field campground dispersed with trees. Neighbors will be present.
The river access is right over the levee just a few minutes walk from your campsite. Fishing on the river is allowed but you need a license.
We are near the woods and river so wildlife is present. Please make sure your food is put away nightly to discourage critters from coming into camp.
The campground is just a short drive from a selection of hiking or biking trails. As well as other attractions like the Jet Boat Tours and Trees of Mystery.
Located at the end of a glen cell service in this area can be spotty or non existent depending on the carrier.
Wifi is available near main house but is limited to emails, messaging and mapping your next adventure.
We welcome people of all seasons. Just ask that you are kind and respectful
to each other.
Well Behaved Pets Are Allowed.
Children and Laughter are Always Welcome. We look forward to your visit.
August and September there will be fisher persons in the campground. So be warned of early morning engine noise as they head out to the river for fishing. Electric cars that want to charge there is a $10 fee at time of service. Must make arrangements ahead of a time because 50 amp services are limited. Plus you need to bring your own adapters.

What can you expect? Quiet, beauty, birdsong, ocean roar, widely spaced campsites (only 5 on the 5 acres set aside for camping), extra stuff if you need or want it (fresh bread, soup, cobbler; quilts, free firewood, local tips on travel and where to hike or what to visit), etc. Or total solitude if you want it. Bring your (most breeds) dogs if you wish. Starlink internet means you can Zoom in the forest. Walk to the beach along a no-shoulder country road (or drive).

The air is clean and clear and the water is potable from an artesian spring on the property. No electricity at the sites, no generators allowed. (Charge your electronics at the farmhouse.)
My aunt and uncle bought the p;roperty in 1947 from the first European settler, Paolo Gabrielli, who came to the U.S. in early 1914 from northern Italy with slips of his grapevine in the lining of his coat. Paolo's wife, Felicita, and their three children stayed behind; they were to follow within the year. In the country outside of Ferndale, California, he purchased the property, one mile from the ocean, and built a Tyrolean-style house, a chicken house (with a grappa still under the main floor), an outhouse, a corral, and a barn. He purchased 7 cows. And then, it was August 1914, and the War to End All Wars broke out in Europe. Felicita and the children, living in a village on the Austrian border, were interned in a prison camp in Austria with the rest of the village's residents. The Gabriellis' young daughter died there. Six years passed before Felicita, Virgil and Louis were able to join Paolo in America. In 1938, Virgil--Fr. Gino--became the first Ferndale boy to serve Mass in his hometown church. Felicita died in 1940, and Paolo closed the dairy and moved into Ferndale. In 2014, we invited the people who had been children in the 1920s and '30s who had come to this ranch after Sunday Mass to gather with other Italian families for polenta, wine, and music. They came with photographs and maps and Mass cards and diaries, and shared their memories of a childhood in this place that still loved them.

Camp Jade River

The rugged terrain of far northern California is one of the few mostly untouched places left to retreat to. Come dwarf yourself under the magnificent giant redwoods and be struck with awe by the mesmerizing jade colored Smith River. The property is a mere 20 minutes from some of the world's tallest trees. Come check out Stout Grove, a rarely crowded gem of the Redwood National and State Parks. The grove is a part of Jedediah Smith Redwood State Park which is the least developed and most impressive park of the four. From your campsite you will have a lovely view of a large bend of the Smith River. It boasts impressive runs of chinook and steelhead, and is host to many other native species. Keep an eye out for bear, mink, and otters! And secure any food or attractants at night. Our property gives you the chance to disconnect from daily life and recalibrate. Use our site as an extended getaway for some peace and quiet, or a launch point to the variety of local attractions.

Free Your Mind Camping
4 sites · RVs, Tents119 acres · Gasquet, CA
The campground land is remotely located on private property and perfectly located for excursions to the Pacific Ocean, Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, the Smith River National Recreation Area, and the Pacific Coast Ranges and mountain lakes such as the Devil's Punchbowl, Buck Lake, and Raspberry Lake. Relax and free you mind while camping on 119 acres of private property under starry skies with almost no light or noise pollution. In the surrounding area you can enjoy hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, surfing, mushrooming, berry-picking, beachcombing, birdwatching, and countless other outdoor activities.
The campsites have picnic tables and fire rings, and campers are provided with 5 gallons of potable water, an outdoor, cold-water Artesian shower, and an outhouse. Bundles of wood are available for an extra charge when you book.
The campsites are set within a deciduous and pine forest at about 1913 feet in elevation. There is a pond on the property, but its purpose is for wildlife habitat only so no water activities are permitted (that is, no swimming, fishing, boating, etc.)
The property owner has a dog, two cats, and a menagerie of yard birds such as turkeys, peacocks, guinea hens, chickens, ducks, geese, etc. Kirk has lived off-grid for over twenty years and holds a wealth of information about the Gasquet/Del Norte County area.
Perhaps the most interesting feature of the property is that it has had documented Sasquatch encounters over the past twenty years that have been published in "Tribal Bigfoot" (D. Paulides 2009). Kirk can tell you about his experiences with this and other phenomena on the property.

The best camping near Sue-meg State Park (Patrick's Point State Park) guide
Overview
About
At the heart of California’s Redwood Coast, Sue-meg State Park (formerly Patrick’s Point State Park) is small but mighty, and startling scenery awaits along every hiking trail. Rocky sea cliffs tumble down into the ocean at Wedding Rock, named for its popularity as a wedding venue. Surf crashes onto the sandy beach at Agate Beach, while sea lions and harbor seals lounge by the rocks and tide pools of Palmer’s Point. Once you’ve had your fill of ocean views, head inland to visit the traditional Sumêg Village and Native Plant Garden, and learn about the park’s rich Native American history.
Notable campgrounds
- Best for RVs: Agate Beach Campground has back-in RV sites, each with grills, food lockers, and rings, but no hookups.
- Best for family campers: Abalone Campground is the largest of the three campgrounds with spacious tent-only pitches.
- Best for escaping the crowds: Penn Creek Campground has 16 tent sites in a tranquil setting with picnic tables and barbecue pits.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- You can reserve one of the 124 campsites at Sue-meg State Park via the Reserve California website. Campsites can be reserved for a maximum of 15 total days in one calendar year.
- Online reservations open six months in advance (based on your arrival date).
- Campsites can book up fast, and it’s not unusual for sites to be booked as soon as they become available, so plan ahead and reserve as early as possible.
When to go
Summer is peak season at Sue-meg State Park, but the crisp ocean breezes keep temperature averages between 40–65°F. Winter averages dip down to 35–55°F, but bring the opportunity for whale-watching along the coast while colorful wildflowers sweep the coast in late spring. Fog can hang along the coast during summer mornings, clouding the views—it normally clears by midday but occasionally can stick around for a few days.
Know before you go
- Sue-meg State Park is located off the Pacific Coast Highway (Route 101), 14 miles south of Redwood National Park, or about a 20-minute drive away. The closest town is Trinidad to the south, a 15-minute drive away.
- Per-vehicle day-use fees are required to enter the park, and camping fees also apply.
- Sue-meg State Park facilities include a visitor center, picnic areas, restrooms, and an RV sanitation station.
- Swimming and wading are not advised throughout the park as there are strong, unpredictable waves and undertow.
- There are accessible campsites and restrooms at Sue-meg State Beach. The Visitor Center is also accessible.
- Dogs are permitted in the park, but not on the beaches and must be kept on a 6-foot, hand-held leash at all times.
