Located 5 miles west of the Avenue of the Giants on Mattole Road, in the western portion of Humboldt Redwoods State Park.
Always a great campground but we didn't get to see any bears this time....😥
Great site. Although it's not incredibly private due to the proximity of adjacent campsites, the approach to Albee prohibit massive RV's from comfortably making the trek. No loud generators or oppressively large vehicles to deal with. :)
The sites closest to the field are ideal for stargazing and watching roaming wildlife.
Good spot for families with small children and people looking for a good respite in one of California's great state parks.
Beautiful campground, site 25 had a big open meadow next to it (great for stargazing, you can see the galactic center when the moon isn't out), lots of shade thanks to a large tree, and easy access to bathrooms/shower. The bathrooms and shower were kept very clean. I would suggest buying firewood not at the campground as it costs $10 for a small bundle.
Great campsites, family friendly, safe for kids playing around. It has only 40 sites, so its not crowded. Ample parking at most part near your site. Lots of long and short hiking trails for beginners or serious hikers. Night is peaceful and quite except for the nocturnal creatures. Deer family always pay a visit to campers coz their meal(wild berries) is all over. We saw a Black Bear slowly walking out of some woodsy area on the far side of the meadow and have a chance to take some photos.
Best campground we’ve stayed at in California so far! Get a spot with a meadow view and watch for the bears eating apples!
Fab facilities and lovely staff!
They also have a range of talks, walks and activities.
