The redwoods and ferns create a chapel-like experience .... calm, quiet, restful, rejuvenating, extremely pleasant walking More

Beautiful, old-growth redwoods along a river. Places to camp and picnic. In danger of being closed next year. See it while you can. More

Great camping spot in the coolness of the redwoods. It is fully 15 degrees cooler here than in Philo or Boonville, two nearby friendly towns. The Navarro river runs through the park, and there is kind of a beachy atmosphere under the bridge. We like to visit the local growing wine area in Philo, grab some fabulous brews at the... More

There are several hikes within this park that take you past mind-blowing trees. It was sweltering the day we went; the dense shade of the forest was welcome and refreshing. Never visited the hermit's house; sounds interesting. More

We love Hendy Woods! This was our second time camping at here and plan to return next year. It's about 2 1/2 hours from San Francisco but you feel worlds away. The campground is well designed and very clean - sites are good sized. Coin operated hot showers available as well. We have hiked a few of the trails and... More

Hendy Woods is a wonderful place to camp if you are visiting the Anderson Valley. We cabin camped with two families. Cabins are one room with a bunk bed, table, and wood stove. Bunks are full size, and guests would do well to bring air mattresses. Cabins are clean. Coin operated hot showers available. The reservation fee is quite reasonable-... More

In our search to find smaller, out of the way places, we discovered Hendy Woods State Park. We opted to stay in a cabin, as we were traveling in April, and knew that wet weather was still possible. The cabins are relatively new (5-6 years old?) and well constructed and outfitted with bunks. For such a small park, we did... More

We camped at Hendy for the first time in late August 2008. We had a motorhome and our friends had tents. Although there were no hookups, we managed just fine in our motorhome without a generator. We had site 53 and I can tell you it was not good for a motorhome because it had a slope. Thankfully we had... More
