For travelers heading north and tired after climbing through the Siskiyous this is a convenient stop right next to I-5 with paved parking sites, full hookups, and free Wi-Fi. The only negative is the proximity to the freeway means extra noise.
This is a quite campground, packed with options for hiking, birding, and fishing. It's proximity to the town of Red Bluff gives it the feel of a city park.
Waves can lull you sleep here on the front side next to the beach. On the back side is a working harbor, which with boats coming and going at all hours can make for an interesting time.
Close enough to walk through the quaint town of Ferndale is the big plus here. A growing number of extened stay sites give an unsavory look to the place, but it is quiet.
