Campgrounds near Napa and Ortiz, CA

We are planning a September trip from Georgia (near Savannah) to Anacortes, WA with stops in the Napa Valley and the Redwood National Forest in CA. Does anyone have suggestions for campgrounds along this route?

We stayed here in Oregon and it was fabulous:

And I think this is where we stayed when we visited Sequoia National Park.

We stayed at the local KOA in San Francisco as well as the KOA in Tacoma.

Thank you for the websites. Both are beautiful campgrounds. My husband and I have never been to the West Coast, only as far as Wyoming so we are looking forward to this trip.

Are you interested in rv parks or dry camping in campgrounds?

Elkhorn, is dry camping w/o hookups? If so, I'd prefer full hookups. The DH wouldn't care.

Thanks.

We have stayed at Riverwalk RV Park in Fortuna. It's about 20 miles south of Eureka & close to some really cool towns. Ferndale is a victorian downtown, dinner or lunch at the Samoa Cookhouse. You're also in the redwoods. The park is a full hookup.

A lot of the state park campgrounds in Oregon have full hookups, too. The ones at the beach fill up early in the reservation period, especially on the weekends, but if you are going up the Interstate, you should have no trouble finding RV parks. State parks in Washington also have hookups.

If you are going up the center of Oregon, you owe yourself a visit to the Evergreen Air Museum in McMinnville. That is the home of the Spruce Goose which was owned by Howard Hughes, along with an enormous number of aircraft from the Wright brothers replicas to space capsules. There are a couple of nice RV parks nearby there. Plan on a full day to see everything properly. You didn't say if you are traveling with kids, but the water park there is quite unique. Check out the website to see what is there.

That part of Oregon is also great wine country. Tons of tasting rooms, including one at the Evergreen.

Thanks so much for the information SaltFlatRacer and MurphsMom. We are still in the planning stages but we know we want to visit the Redwoods and Napa Valley in CA and ride up the Pacific Coast Hwy. Final destination on the West Coast being Anacortes, WA for the Oyster Run before heading back home. We had planned to be away from home for about 3 weeks but it doesn't look like we will be able to do all we have planned in that short amount of time.

If you are traveling the length of the Oregon coast, you will probably cross over into Washington at Astoria. The Pacific Maritime Museum there is another good place to visit. It really gives you a feel for what this part of the coast is about. There is a state campground on the Oregon side which is the biggest in their park system. We prefer to camp at Cape Disappointment on the Washington side. Hauling a trailer through the part of Astoria by the docks where the museum is, is not something I'd prefer to do.

Have fun with your trip planning! That is something I always enjoy about our vacations.

I too enjoy the planning stages of our vacations. Husband is more the "let's fly by the seat of our pants" kind of guy but he does appreciate it when he's driving in parts unknown and I have a travel plan in place

Thank you for the information on the museums.
