Driftwood RV Park & Fishing Resort

It was our first time visiting. Had a great time! Nice grassy area for dogs and kids to play. Will be going back to visit. Kim and Joe are great host. They had a band there for a birthday party, so much fun. Relaxed and enjoyed our visit

Driftwood is our new favorite weekend getaway. Found this place on accident and we are so happy that we did! So quiet and peaceful, plenty of space so you’re not on top of your neighbor, perfect amenities for just in case (washer and dryer thank goodness and showers!!!). The host and hostess were so amazingly friendly and helpful… went out of their way to make us feel at home. Especially like that they run a tight ship as far as making everyone respect the park so it can be enjoyed by all :)

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT! Job and his wife have taken over this place and they are ON FIRE with making this place even better!
Spent a couple of nights here with a Boy Scout troop. Great location, nice lawn to put a tent on and close to Los Molinos for food, drinks, etc. We used their canoes for a 5 day 75 mile mile canoe trip and all went well. Great support for canoe drop off and pick up.
I would gladly take my own family back there for a nice weekend of fun on the river.
Thanks guys!

P. S. Note to owner — Give them more resources to further upgrade the location! You have a gem of a place there.

68 miles on the river in a canoe is no joke. Especially if you want to do it in 2 days. Somehow we thought it was a great idea to do just this over Memorial Day weekend. The put in is at Redding’s Sundial Bridge and the paddling fun doesn’t end until Los Molinos along the Sacramento River with one night spend on BLM land along the way.
This trip was fun, strenuous, and long (we’re talking paddling for about 8 hours a day). We really couldn’t have done it without the kind folks at Driftwood RV Park. We drove in on Saturday and spent the night tent camping on the property. They have a number of spots for RV camping but a nice little meadow with a fire pit for tent camping. We were the only ones actually camping and we had the large space all to ourselves. There are bathrooms with showers that were free of charge. Clean and with soap. The property is along the water so we definitely had a chance to dip our toes in and enjoy some beverages.
The next morning we rented canoes from Driftwood and they drove us to Redding for the put in point which was about 30 miles away. We got the paddles, life jackets, and backrest from them as well. They gave us some tips, drove our car back to the campsite and off we go. Our finish point was back at the campsite.
The river was cold due to snow melt and there are some fun rapids (maybe class 1 – 2). There were parts that were a little harrowing but it was all good. We definitely didn’t want to tip since we had all our backpacking gear with us and it would have been a huge hassle. You can fish and enjoy the views (we saw a few bald eagles) and enjoy what was actually a serene river. Even though it was a busy weekend, we didn’t see any other canoes. We saw maybe 2 – 3 other campers and 3 – 4 boats. Definitely did not have the over-​crowding issue of some popular spots along the river. Also really easy to choose a spot to camp along the river. Just pull over to whatever looks good.
Jen and Jennifer from Driftwood were just some of the nicest people we have ever met. Really friendly and helpful and just great gals. We had a fun and safe time thanks to them!
When you’re looking for a little adventure, try this trip! Maybe a 3 day would be less strenuous but it’s a great trip.
