What others are saying about this campground
This campground is a nature lovers paradise! Nestled in a lush redwood forest, it features campsites along a small stream and a meadow where elk come to graze. There are benches around the meadow so you can watch the elk from a safe distance. You can also take hikes to the beach, pick up a section of the coastal trail, or explore different groves of redwoods. Each campsite is equipped with a table, fire ring, and food locker, and there are clean restrooms and coin operated showers. You can also take hikes to the Klamath River, Fern Canyon, or simply hang with the elk. On the first Saturday of the month, the Newton B Drury Pkwy is closed, and everyone rides their bikes up and down the Pkwy. You are guaranteed to see elk and moose. Despite the weather forecast, the campground has light rain all day and night. There are water spigots, but no dishwashing sink. You cant buy firewood there, but you can bring your own. There is no cell service, so bring walkies for the trails. This is the perfect place for a peaceful camping experience in the redwoods!

From The Campground
Fifty miles north of Eureka, Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park protects sandy beaches and open meadows grazed by magnificent herds of Roosevelt elk. Ferns cascade down canyon walls. Lush stands of the world's tallest living tree species, the coast redwood, stand in primeval majesty. Visitors can stay at either Elk Prairie or Gold Bluffs Beach campgrounds and explore the park via three scenic drives, 75 miles of hiking trails, and a 19-mile bike loop. A World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve, Prairie Creek and the three other parks in the Redwood National and State Parks group protect 45 percent of California's remaining old-growth redwoods.
