We have been camping at Santa Cruz Redwoods RV Resort every year since 2015 and have always enjoyed our stays. I have reviewed this RV Resort in the past and am once again reviewing it because we continue to be impressed by all that it has to offer. Managers Eric and Christi, along with their excellent staff, take great pride in keeping the grounds and facilities in excellent condition.
The campground is nestled among towering redwood trees in the quaint town of Felton just 6 miles north of Santa Cruz, CA. There are about 85 full hook-up sites of various sizes and configurations that are fairly level with gravel pads. Some of them overlook the San Lorenzo River. Most are back in, but there are a few pull-thru sites. Many of the sites are very shady at different times of the day due to the tall redwood trees. There is also a tent area with another dozen or so sites. Reservations can be made up to one year in advance and for a small fee you can reserve a specific site so I would recommend visiting the Resort ahead of time if possible to identify a site suited to your likes and your RV.
There are two restroom / shower facilities on site, along with a central laundry room that are well maintained and very clean. There is also a very large clubhouse and an expansive deck overlooking the river with 2 gas BBQ’s that are available for guest use. We used one of the BBQ’s a couple of times during our recent visit and they worked just great. On the weekends the Resort Managers arranged for a local vendor to set up a portable grill near the office where he prepared breakfast burritos and specialty sandwiches.
Fires are permitted in approved fire pits that are available from the resort for $5 for your entire stay. Firewood is also available for purchase. There is Wi-Fi throughout the Resort and we were able to connect easily and streamed movies even when the campground was full. Cable TV with a variety of news, sports, and movie channels is also included at each site. The roads in the campground are asphalt and many sections have been recently repaved – great for bike riding.
In addition to its well-maintained appearance and facilities I cannot say enough about the management and their staff. They are all genuinely committed to making their guests feel welcome, comfortable and safe. The office is open daily 9am-5:00pm, and the on-site mangers are available 24/7. Friendly full-time staff members are continually working on the grounds, cleaning facilities, delivering fire pits and wood, cleaning sites as they are vacated, and helping campers as needed. Quiet time at this family friendly campground is from 9:30pm to 8:00am.
While secluded in the redwoods, Santa Cruz Redwoods RV Resort is close to many venues and activities making it ideal on so many levels. California Redwood parks, beaches, hiking, antique shops, fine dining, fast food, farmers’ markets, historical districts and more are merely minutes away. Nearby Roaring Camp Railroad offers narrow gauge steam train rides to the top of Bear Mountain, as well as a Santa Cruz Beach train to the Boardwalk amusement park on the beach during the summer months. Henry Cowell and Big Basin Redwood Parks are close by and full of hiking and biking trails. There are several grocery markets in Felton and nearby Scotts Valley, as well as a Costco just 6 miles in Santa Cruz
Santa Cruz Redwoods RV Resort is our Go To Getaway and we highly...
