Project #2025.08:

Redevelopment and Long-Term Operation of Key Waterfront Parcels

The Crescent City Harbor District (CCHD) is inviting proposals for a multi-year concession/lease contract to redevelop and operate one or both of its two harbor-front Recreational Vehicle (RV) parks, located at 750 US Highway 101 (Bayside RV Park) and 159 Starfish Way (Redwood Harbor Village) in Crescent City, California. While the District’s preference is to maintain these properties as RV parks, proposals for other compatible commercial uses will also be considered.

The selected lessee(s) will be expected to plan, finance, and execute significant capital improvements—such as paving, upgraded utilities, restrooms, laundry facilities, landscaping, and enhanced visitor amenities—at their sole expense. The lease term will be commensurate with the scale of improvements proposed. Bayside RV Park currently includes both long-term and short-term spaces, while Redwood Harbor Village operates as a short-term rental park in accordance with California Coastal Commission regulations.

The complete RFP, including site maps, development requirements, and submission instructions, is available for download here:
