Woodson Bridge State Recreation Area

There were millions of goatheads. Lots of cliffs. On the trail that's On the opposite side of the boat dock. The water was beautiful, great place to swim. In the river normally you don't want to swim in the river.

Good for one or two night camping, campground is decent and not very crowded. The host and the rangers were very good. There's a small beach on Sacramento river where you can swim, kayak, otherwise there's not much to do. No proper hiking trails. Showers facility available.

The campground is nice and spacious between sites. It was hot when we stayed in May and with no electricity, it was kind of a sweaty night, but in the morning it was nice. Access to the river is a bit of a hike through the trees and tall grass, to the neighboring park. There may be access at different times of the year but when we were there, the river was up to the banks.

Very nice place to go cool off. Easy to get to and alot of cool trails that lead to lots of good swimming locations. Would be alot nicer if there wasn't an old man that harasses you about everything that looks wrong about what your driving or why you stopped. I am an evacuated person from one of the many fires currently burning in northern California and placed a call to the owner of the mobile home park at location and although I haven't stayed there they did return my phone call in a very timely manner and offered to do what they could to try to help me out. I thank them very much for that it was comforting knowing there are still people out there willing to help out. Plus they have some really cool old toys there also well I call them tools but most would call them toy's.

I went with a girlfriend, we had a great time. Had a few tick experiences but overall very beautiful there and good company with my friend and our dogs❤️
