Dry camping site
Lauren Z.

We enjoyed our stay here. We had to cancel a trip somewhere else due to fires and were able to call on a Thursday and book a dry camping spot here for our 26 ft trailer for the following day Friday - Sunday. Our kids enjoyed the pool they also had corn hole, badminton, and ping pong. The site was clean with a picnic table and bbq. It was a bit unlevel but was fine with our levelers. It has a dump station and water fill station near the entrance. There are long term residents, however they are kind of in their own section. We had no issue with that whatsoever. Our site did back up to a fence with houses or apartments on the other side which might bother some but we really had no issue with that either. Being surrounded by beautiful redwood trees was really just what we wanted and there were plenty of those. Overall we had a good experience here. The owners were very friendly and the place was quiet and clean and the perfect weekend getaway from Silicon Valley.

We did not have a bad experience at the fault of the resort ...but this is more of a reminder to ask for more details when booking.. We are traveling in a new 40' motorhome and the 20 amp service was not adequate. We not only felt awful having to turn the rig on in the night and early morning and run the generator non stop... it was very hard on our systems. Our refrigerator and water heater would not operate. Thankfully the shower facility was nice & clean with plenty of hot water. We felt terrible for the poor campers stuck next to us in tents but the alternative was losing a months worth of food in our freezer. The site itself was perfect and private. Also heads up if you're driving a larger rig be sure you fuel up long before you get into this area as you won't fit into any of the small stations near by. Overall good experience but definitely not suitable for anything large ie: 5th wheel, super class C or A

Amazing camping experience! The resort gives you a true redwood forest ambiance. The camping area is grassy and tree lined. Bathrooms are very clean and they provide a dish washing station. I did not want to leave. The service was great! Staff kept making sure we were doing well. I will be back with all my family.

Great weekend tent camping at Redwood Resort RV Park. Professionally run, clean and organized. Cash/check only, so we were a little nervous that our phone reservation wouldn't be found... but no problem. We rolled up Friday and they had us down in their book. We stayed under the redwoods with our three dogs and loved it, but saw the families with kids camp and play in the big meadow. Kids also enjoyed the pool and ping pong table. Standing charcoal BBQ's and picnic tables at every site. No campfires due to fire risk. Thought we would miss this but we really didn't. Clean shower and bathroom. Quiet at 10pm - good sleeping! You wanna party all night? Not your place. You wanna be camping alone in the remote wilderness? Not your spot.

I was so lucky to find this place. I had to boondock the Friday night before in Monterey because I couldn't find an available campground anywhere. I left a message and they called me back first thing in the morning and said, "Come over!" No early arrival fee. I requested a spot in the shade and my site was wonderful. Got a couple good showers and a dip in the pool. There's a white peacock named Albert who visits often. Quiet and night and peaceful the entire time. "Bee" is incredibly kind and helpful. She went out of her way to help me with a couple things. I'd go back in a minute. Cash only, but there's probably an ATM within a half mile in Boulder Creek. I'd like to stay longer next time.

What a great find!! Have visited this area many times and had no idea this place was there. Very well run, quiet, clean restrooms, efficient check-in and yes, cash or check only. Our rv site was huge, right next to the pool, although this time of year (winter) it was not open. The only down side was 20 amp service which was the only one available so was careful running one appliance at a time. As previously noted, some full time residents live there but those sites are neat and clean and residents very nice. Even had a white peacock walk through the campground!!Just a short walk to town where gas and groceries are available. Short drive to Santa Cruz Boardwalk, wineries and State Parks! Don't miss this jewel in the Santa Cruz Mountains!

Great space that fit our group!
Abbie G.

I'm so impressed by this camp resort. Our very large family camping trip needed this very space. We had 3 trailers, 1 adventure trailer, 3 rooftop tents and a bunch of regular tents. Lots of kiddos to run around that awesome center field surrounded by our group so we always had Birdseye view of them playing. The kids enjoyed the pool, ping pong table and volleyball net. The white peacock was interesting, not my hubby's favorite part of the place but sure sparked interest from the kids. Bathrooms were clean. Wish we had full hookup but I would take this group spot that allowed us all to be in such close proximity vs the sewage. We even got a visit from a banana slug which became a teaching opportunity for the kids. Pet friendly always a plus! The beautiful tall redwoods provided such perfect shade for the unusual warm/hot temperature we had this weekend. Thank you for being so friendly and accommodating Redwood Resort!

This is the official mascot of the Redwood Resort and the surrounding area. His name is Albert.

I like to rough it a bit more in a tent with a more natural setting. This place gets packed on weekends and I found the spacing to be too dense. Like neighbors all around 360 and just within feet of each other. But ya know what this is a gripe from a tent camper who chooses places based on spacing and density. Also every RV camper is used to this style of camping. They prefer convenience over solitude, to each their own. I will say that for as packed as this place gets, the campers are all good natured and considerate. No loud after hours noise/partying, no blaring of music and I didn't even hear any buzzes from a generator. Kids playing all over the place, which I love to see. The park offers great services like they'll deliver firewood or a fire pit to any site. They have a general store up front and the grounds are immaculate. There are bathrooms with showers if one didn't want to use the RV version. And the clincher for me on why I would recommend this campsite to anyone interested are the aesthetics. Their name truly is accurate...they are dead smack in the middle of a redwood forest. Even the dozens of monster RVs that are there are all in the shadows of a majestic redwood forest. There's even a nice creek that flows through the resort where people can wade, play and relax. Even though not my cup of tea, I can still acknowledge and appreciate what this place brings. And I'm glad it is there for others.

Very family oriented as lots of kids on scooters having the time of their lives. Even though lots of kids were there, the place is still very peaceful and quiet. There's is a nice clubhouse with a kitchen area, sofa and games such as fooseball and shuffleboard. Several board games as well. The deck has plenty of tables for eating or just hanging out. The San Lorenzo river is right there and just beautiful. Easy to walk down to the river. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. I love their little store- it has the right amount of miniature basics and there is also ice cream pints and the most delicious ice cream sandwiches. The other bonus is that you can burn a real wood fire at night! Will definitely keep coming back!

We were in the area for a family celebration and now we are having to park many miles out of our way and drive lots of extra miles everyday! Only wish there were other options in the area!

Our kids can play safely and there are a lot of simple pleasures for them in camp (stumps to climb, fairy rings to play in, a heated pool, small playground). When returning, some of the staff remembered us from past visits, making us feel right at home. On our most recent trip our dog got sprayed by a skunk and ran away in the middle of the night disappearing into the neighboring forest. The next morning we talked to the hosts and other employees and they were alongside us every step. They pointed us in the direction of local resources, inquired with neighbors and other nearby resorts, kept an eye out for her, and posted our missing sign. Because of them we were reunited with her in less than 24 hours. I am so grateful for their help and another great visit. We will be returning and recommending this spot! Are there fancier places to stay? Of course! But this place has soul, good people, and beautiful scenery. Thank you Smithwoods!!!!

We also appreciated having good connectivity so we could stay in touch while still feeling completely unplugged in nature. Our kids had the best time -- biking around the park and making friends with other families and campers. The location was perfect too: close to Felton and just minutes from Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, which made exploring super convenient. We had a fantastic stay and would absolutely recommend Smith Woods RV Park to any families looking for a relaxing, kid-friendly forest getaway.

The Fall Creek section was very easy, and you're walking along the creek with a few small waterfalls to admire. A couple of times you cross over the creek, but there are planks to walk on. I couldn't stop taking pictures during this section. There's a bit of elevation when you get to the Ridge trail section, but nothing too bad. The only thing to be cautious of is the abundance of poison oak. There are some narrow paths where the poison oak was spilling over from both sides of the path. TIP: wear long pants.

Climb Dry rebirth after the fire Me n this Forest Scenery is an old growth forest with little ground cover other than Redwood sorrels after the fire. Entirely canopied, easy and well kept but a steep trail. Heard owls at the top near Big Ben, a squirrel, few birds and some grasshoppers. Otherwise pretty quiet. Fall Creek had steady water flowing and a tiny waterfall at the time of my visit. Pups are NOT allowed here. Less visited old growth forest as the trail is continuous elevation down to Fall Creek and back up to Big Ben. A couple of crossing to HC Lime Kilns where the lime was used to rebuild SFO post 1906 earthquake and to Lost Empire. Signals were virtually nonexistent and the BBT is NOT marked! I took pictures of the Trail descriptions and maps prior to and that was helpful. Go with someone who is familiar with these trails or download descriptions and good trail mapS. Felton Empire Rd runs through it. There is NO parking lot or any signs to per se. Once you find the trail, you can park on the shoulder. Pro tip: It's MUCH easier to find and start from Bennet Creek to Fall Creek Trailhead as there is a parking lot off Felton Road. About 3 to 8.4 miles hike depending on the trails (partial loop) you choose with little to ~1500 ft elevation if you hike to Big Ben and entire loop (8.4 miles). Recommend water, protein bars and comfortable shoes.
