Casewell Memorial State Park (Aug 2007)
Casewell Memorial state park is our favorite camping site. This was our third visit to this camp site. The park is located along the Stanislaus River near the town of Ripon, California. The Stanislaus River meanders through the park, with beaches and swimming areas near the park’s day use and campground facilities.
The camp sites are very spacious and there is lot of room for the tents. Most of the campsites are covered with shades from the tree. This campground is usually very hot during the summer. So the river that meanders through the park will be with full of water activities ranging from swimming, tubing, sun bathing etc. We spent close to 4 hours in the river.
The hiking trails were not very exciting though, as there were no encounters during the hiking. The park offers ranger programs during summer, however it was not available when we visited. My parents also came with us to this camping, however they stayed at the near by motel during the night. We hope to visit again this park in future a few more times.
