For Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park: Quiet and small park. Clean facilities. As others have said, there’s no hot water. But it’s a welcome and Interesting stop on 99. Would come again.

For Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park: Very interesting historical site. A must see. Campground is nice. No hookups, but very adequate and level back in spots. No pull thrus. Sites will accommodate a 36 class A M/H with no problem. Covered cabanas and fire rings. Rest rooms and showers. Only drawback was lack of hot water in showers, pretty much just Luke warm.

For Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park: We stayed at Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park Campground at $20/night. Learn about the noble vision of Colonel Allen Allensworth and others during 1908. Very nice stroll around reconstructed town, we wish we could spend more time peering into many fascinating buildings and follow corresponding description on our cell phone. Both campground loop and back-in sites were paved and fairly leveled. 3 cold showers and 5 toilets with sinks, all functional and clean. Oh yeah, if you soldiered through the cold shower, it’s quite refreshing! Each site has sheltered cement picnic table and some sites even have nice shade trees. OTA TV provides 60 digital channels. No WiFi but 3 bars LTE. Dump station takes credit card and will cost $10 per dump. There is busy train track about 1/3 mile away from the campground and can be heard until 10pm. We would stay again if pass through this way for it price.

For Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park: Very serene place (if you don't mind train whistles.) Great stopover if traveling on 99; it is farther from I5 though. Many burrowing owls and an occasional rattler. Often we are the only ones there. But, like other California state parks, on the posted open days it is not actually open. Very good place for those interested in recent history or in photography---especially on a foggy morning.

For Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park: This park is a lovely little gem to visit. It is dry camping, only 15 spots but the dump is right there with fresh water. It is a town founded by a community of blacks in the early 1900's. The community's buildings have been restored or rebuilt and furnished, and it is fascinating to wander thru the town reading the history of the place. The camping spot is right next to the village and gives you a chance to ponder what their lives must have been like trying to make it out here. Vast views, lovely sunsets, great stars at night. Very quiet- although there are trains coming thru. I would definitely recommend a night or two here. Toilets and showers were very nice too!

For Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park: We love to stay here when traveling up/ down 5. Quiet, except for birds, coyotes and occasional trains. Beautiful open grassland. Park is historical and has an interesting history with many restored buildings. Nothing fancy, but spots are level with shaded picnic areas.
