About
Del Norte County campground on Highway 197 (North Bank Road) between Highways 101 and 199, with 18 sites among redwoods. Smith River access 50 yards away for swimming, kayaking, and seasonal trout/salmon fishing. First-come, first-served; call for the group picnic area. Coordinates are the town of Crescent City rather than the park; the county publishes no map point, and Florence Keller carries the same placeholder.
