The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else.

The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The park is located along the Stanislaus River near the town of Ripon, California. The park protects a fine example of the threatened and still declining riparian oak woodland, which once flourished throughout California's Central Valley. Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else. The Native Americans who lived along this river and collected acorns among these ancient groves were Yokuts. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers traversed this area, and fur trappers found the river bountiful.
RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIESTrails — One of the most magnificent aspects of the park is an abundance of extensive nature trails. The short trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem of the valley looks like in its natural state.Camping — In a pleasant, wooded area beside the river, 64 family campsites each have a table, camp stove, and food locker. The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching

The park protects a fine example of the threatened and still declining riparian oak woodland, which once flourished throughout California's Central Valley. Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else. The Native Americans who lived along this river and collected acorns among these ancient groves were Yokuts. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers traversed this area, and fur trappers found the river bountiful.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIESTrails — One of the most magnificent aspects of the park is an abundance of extensive nature trails. The short trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem of the valley looks like in its natural state.Camping — In a pleasant, wooded area beside the river, 64 family campsites each have a table, camp stove, and food locker. The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The park protects a fine example of the threatened and still declining riparian oak woodland, which once flourished throughout California's Central Valley. Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else. The Native Americans who lived along this river and collected acorns among these ancient groves were Yokuts. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers traversed this area, and fur trappers found the river bountiful.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIESTrails — One of the most magnificent aspects of the park is an abundance of extensive nature trails. The short trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem of the valley looks like in its natural state.Camping — In a pleasant, wooded area beside the river, 64 family campsites each have a table, camp stove, and food locker. The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available.

The park protects a fine example of the threatened and still declining riparian oak woodland, which once flourished throughout California's Central Valley. Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else. The Native Americans who lived along this river and collected acorns among these ancient groves were Yokuts. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers traversed this area, and fur trappers found the river bountiful.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIESTrails — One of the most magnificent aspects of the park is an abundance of extensive nature trails. The short trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem of the valley looks like in its natural state.Camping — In a pleasant, wooded area beside the river, 64 family campsites each have a table, camp stove, and food locker. The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else.

The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.

The park protects a fine example of the threatened and still declining riparian oak woodland, which once flourished throughout California's Central Valley. Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else. The Native Americans who lived along this river and collected acorns among these ancient groves were Yokuts. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers traversed this area, and fur trappers found the river bountiful.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIESTrails — One of the most magnificent aspects of the park is an abundance of extensive nature trails. The short trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem of the valley looks like in its natural state.Camping — In a pleasant, wooded area beside the river, 64 family campsites each have a table, camp stove, and food locker. The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available.

The park protects a fine example of the threatened and still declining riparian oak woodland, which once flourished throughout California's Central Valley. Caswell is home to several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit which is not known to occur anywhere else. The Native Americans who lived along this river and collected acorns among these ancient groves were Yokuts. In the early 1800s, Spanish explorers traversed this area, and fur trappers found the river bountiful.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIESTrails — One of the most magnificent aspects of the park is an abundance of extensive nature trails. The short trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem of the valley looks like in its natural state.Camping — In a pleasant, wooded area beside the river, 64 family campsites each have a table, camp stove, and food locker. The sites will accommodate trailers up to 21 feet long or motor homes up to 24 feet. Hookups are not available. The group campground will accommodate tent camping for up to 50 people, though it has been known to flood during the spring.BOATINGOVERNIGHT FACILITIESFamily CampsitesGroup CampsitesHike or Bike CampsitesRV AccessTRAIL USEBike TrailsHiking TrailsDAY-USE ACTIVITIES & FACILITIESPicnic AreasExhibits and ProgramsFishingInterpretive Exhibits Beach AreaSwimmingNature & Wildlife ViewingFamily ProgramsGeocaching</p> </div> <div class="reportthis" style="margin-bottom: 20px;"> <form method="post" action="/ripon-ca/report/place/caswell-memorial-state-park-ripon-ca.html"> <button type="submit" class="btn btnregister pull-right" style="margin-bottom: 10px;">Flag This Place</button> </form> </div> <div class="report_button_message">Please use "Flag This Place" to alert us about content that is inappropriate or needs immediate attention.
