Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park Campground
Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park Campground is located off Graham Hill Road, about 5 miles north of Santa Cruz. Scenic hiking trails wind through the park among 1,500-year-old redwoods. Campers can easily make day trips to Santa Cruz area beaches or hop on the nearby Roaring Camp Railroad.
Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park Campground reservations are highly recommended at this popular park. The 107 campsites are set among oaks and other foliage which provides good privacy for many sites. So close to the ocean, the campground can have fog in the morning, so visitors should be prepared for cool weather.
The campground has amenities such as coin-operated showers, but no RV hook-ups. There are 4, tent-only sites, and a Bike Campground is located just inside the entrance to the main campground.
Note that the campground entrance is different from the day-use areas of the park. Visitors should be aware that poison oak grows in the park.
