What is Pamplin Grove?
It is a Humboldt County Park, located on a bend in the Van Duzen River. The "Grove" in reference is a beautiful group of old-growth Redwood trees. On the river there are sand bars and swimming holes (the extent of each dependent on our rain this year). Under the trees are the ceremonial ground, celebration area, and several group camp sites.
Here is a map of the grove (created by teardrop trailer enthusiasts who have a biannual rally there):
There are pit toilets (non-flush, but clean) at the park, and a food preparation area with sinks, counters, etc. There are campfire rings at each group campsite. There are coin-operated hot showers available about one and a half miles away at "Swimmers Delight", another Humboldt County Park that we will have access to. There is no grid electricity on the site.
Here are some pictures we took on a recent visit
Typical campsite in upper campsite area
Another campsite
The Alter Tree
Large grassy meadow area with volley ball net, horse shoe pits, and plenty of space to run around.
Sandy part of the beach (There are rocky parts too). About a 100 yard walk from the meadow.
Where is Pamplin Grove?
It is in Central Humboldt County, California. To get there from Highway 101, drive east on highway 36 (the turn is about 3 miles South of Fortuna). Pamplin Grove is about 11 miles down HW36, on the right.

Below is an interactive map of the area. Pamplin Grove is next to where it says "Riverside Park" on the map below.
