Hello, all the sites in J Smith campground have bear lockers. You can reserve a site up to six months in advance on reserveamerica.. Good luck with that… The only body of water would be the Smiths river that flows through the park. If you’re lucky and get a site on the river you can walk to it in about 30 seconds. Search up a map of the park campsitesand Scope it out. You will also see the car trails to the sites. It’s a very nice campground, but reservations go fast. I also recommend going to the website called redwoodhikes. The whole website is a plethora of information and clicking through it will take some time but you’ll learn a lot about the area and the other Redwood parks and hiking. Good luck!
