Samuel P. Taylor State Park Comments & Reviews
Visited Samuel P. Taylor State Park Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Samuel P. Taylor State Park?
One of the best parks I’ve been to. Hope the fire doesn’t destroy it.
Definitely one of my favorites. Ken Klincko
Samuel P. Taylor is a gem! Conveniet to get to and filled with beautiful redwoods and trails. Some sites are quite small. In the Creekside Campground, site 7 is amazing! However, the traffic from the road is noticeable. Therefore, I might prefer the Orchard Loop in the future (stayed there twice but don’t remember what the best sites were). I love it for a last-minute getaway to escape the valley heat!
