Our favorite is Elk Prairie CG at Prairie Creek Redwoods SP, south of Klamath. Most of the sites are in the redwoods with a few sites in the meadow area used for overflow. We like the sites in the redwoods by the creek, but if you like the meadow area, #70 is a good site. There are Roosevelt elk herds all over the place, even at the beach. The beach is a short drive, 2 or 3 miles. There are many trailheads and bike trails and beautiful scenic drives. Piped water and showers available. You might want to make reservations, especially for a weekend or holiday week.
