The campground is located on a hilltop with stunning views of the region and is surrounded by coastal redwood trees. It offers large open sites for tent camping and some more private spots. Each site has a picnic table, fire pit, and bear box. There are flush toilets, coin-operated showers, and food lockers.

From The Campground
Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park is a beautiful park located in Felton, California. The park features a 40-acre old-growth redwood grove, with the largest tree being approximately 277 feet tall and about 1,500 years old. The park also has a campground with 107 sites situated in a shady pine and oak forest, and a separate entrance from the day-use area. The campground is linked to the day-use area by trails, and vehicles must enter the campground east of Felton, via Graham Hill Road. The park offers a variety of activities such as hiking, biking, and park events. Roaring Camp Railroad, a tourist railroad business next to Henry Cowell, is a heritage railway with authentic 1880’s steam locomotives operating on our Redwood Forest Steam Train excursion and 1920's era Beach Trains to Santa Cruz.
