Redwood Resort is an amazing cozy great place to camp. It is a great jumping off point to explore Santa Cruz, Monterey, the Redwoods, etc. We spent a week here for our daughters tenth birthday. Our daughter and her friend never had a boring moment, bouncing between the pool, the badminton court, ping pong table and exploring the beautiful grounds. The staff and residents of the resort were very kind and friendly which made our stay very comfortable. We are looking forward to our next stay at this little slice of heaven. P.S. the showers and bathrooms were clean, had great water pressure and something

We had the pleasure of staying at the "Lovers Grove" campsite in the Redwood resort facility. Our camp host, Louise was super friendly and very gracious and making our stay special. This resort is a hidden gem! I would highly recommend this as a comfortable place just off the road in the redwoods close to Boulder Creek with the super simple access to the big campgrounds in the area. If you're unable to find on-site camping, or for anyone looking for a comfortable and inexpensive place to stay with incredible charm and wonderful, caring service, this is it.

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&apos

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

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

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
