The park was significantly expanded in 2002 with the 25,000-acre (10,000 ha) Mill Creek Addition. Originally established in 1925, the park is now 31,261 acres (12,651 ha). The park was designated part of the California Coast Ranges International Biosphere Reserve in 1983.

Proposals for closureEdit

A proposal to close a portion of this park placed it on the list of 48 California state parks proposed for closure in January 2008 by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger as part of a deficit reduction program. The decision was rescinded following public outcry. However, in May 2011 the park was one of 70 state parks threatened with closure. In October 2011 the National Park Service agreed to provisionally take over management of Del Norte Coast Redwoods for one year.
