Guest rating: 4.1 / 5
Chinook RV Resort is a gated RV and camping park on US-101 in Klamath, California, set along the Klamath River near the northern edge of the redwood coast. The property offers spacious tent camping sites, RV hookups, and Airbnb-style rental units, giving travelers a range of stay options from rustic to more comfortable. On-site amenities include coin laundry facilities, clean shared bathrooms and hot showers, strong Wi-Fi, a leash-free dog run, river access, and a pool table in the office for casual downtime. Its riverside gated setting appeals to guests seeking a quiet overnight stop or an extended monthly stay. The surrounding area is a major draw, with the resort positioned close to Klamath Beach, the Yurok Country Visitor Center, and Redwood Yurok Canoe Tours, and within a short drive of Redwood National and State Parks, Trees of Mystery, Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, and Fern Canyon. Overlooks such as the Klamath River Overlook and High Bluff Overlook are also nearby for scenic stops. Overall, it functions as a well-kept basecamp for exploring the redwood coastline rather than a full-service hotel.
Best for
This resort is best suited to RV travelers, tent campers, and road-trippers moving along US-101 who want a clean, quiet, gated place to park for a night or longer. It also works well for pet owners thanks to the off-leash dog run, and for nature-focused travelers using it as a base to reach Redwood National and State Parks, Fern Canyon, and the Trees of Mystery attraction. Guests seeking self-sufficient stays will appreciate the on-site laundry, hot showers, and river access.
Travel tips
US-101 runs directly past the property, making it a convenient overnight stop for those driving the redwood coast between California and Oregon. Plan to spend at least a half-day to full day visiting Redwood National and State Parks, Prairie Creek Redwoods, and Fern Canyon, all a short drive away, and check timing for canoe tours through Redwood Yurok Canoe Tours near the property. Bring your own gear for tent sites, and note that river access is at your own risk, so use caution near the water.
