About Dean Creek Resort

Established in 1937, Dean Creek Resort is family-owned and operated. Our award-winning park is situated on the South Fork of the Eel River in the Giant Redwood country. Nature in its finest and purest form abounds in this area. River otters, bear, deer, wild turkeys, wild boar, and mountain cats and many species of birds have been sighted at or near the resort.

Our resort features 64 RV and camping sites. All are grassy and have leveled parking areas, picnic tables, barbecue grills and fire rings. 23 sites have water, electric, TV/Cable and sewer hookups. 40 sites have water, electric, and TV/Cable hookups. One site has water only. Our pull-through sites can handle RVs up to 80 feet long. Tent campers are also welcome, in designated areas.

We are open year-round. Our deluxe motel accommodations make us a popular spot for family and group gatherings. A convenience store and coin laundry are located at the registration area. Our guests can relax by our pool and spa, take a sauna, or participate in a friendly game of shuffleboard, horseshoes, mini golf or volleyball. A lounge for card-playing or watching TV is conveniently located in the park. Cooking facilities for large gatherings are also available. Our amphitheater, under a 1500-year-old giant redwood tree, is ideal for group entertainment. We have a playground, tether ball, and basketball, as well as a game arcade for the young (and young at heart).

For the fisherman, winter months bring in the salmon and steelhead. We are fortunate to have many good fishing holes for bank fishing. Professional guides are available for day trips in drift boats.

While relaxing at Dean Creek Resort, you can enjoy days exploring the Avenue of the Giants, where the tallest living trees in the world stand, some more than 300 feet tall. Some have grown for more than 2000 years.

For an enjoyable day trip, take a picnic lunch and explore the "Lost Coast". The village of Ferndale is worth a visit, from its magnificent Victorian houses, to its historic cemetery and the rugged coast. Great ocean fishing is available at nearby Shelter Cove; or, if you prefer, you can spend the day exploring the tide pools, wandering the black sand beaches, and watching migrating gray whales. Enjoy biking, hiking, bird watching, exploring the wetlands, and wild blackberry picking.

The area has a variety of events throughout the seasons from marathons, Shakespeare On The Lake, Jazz At The Lake, Reggae On The River, Harley Run, Oyster Fest, Kinetic Sculpture Race, etc.
