Really loved our time here. First time. Cane to be by Big Basin grew up going to every weekend, and Henry Cowell surpassed all expectations. The old growth live oak woods of the campground was magical. Nice, quiet, respectful campers! Beautiful campsites surrounded by very fairytale gnarly woods covered in moss! The redwoods of the park were so lovely and all the staff were really friendly. Lots of multi-use area of horse trails, biking, hiking, a river, dog friendly most places of park. Really consciousness dog owners. Close by to get supplies and even electric car chargers nearby! Highly recommend!
Restrooms kept very clean. Very kid friendly. Who needs a playground when you have the wilderness?! There are lots of great little picnic rest areas surrounded by huge redwood trees with some amazing caves in the trees.
