RE: Crecent City via 199 Grant's Pass or 299 Redding
While you asked about cutting across from I 5 at Grants Pass or Redding to Crescent City, and I agree that 199 is certainly preferred, have you thought of leaving I 5 south at Cottage Grove taking Oregon 38 to Reedsport and south on US 101? I can't compare I 5 and 101 on the Oregon Coast for scenery and camping options.
We have done the drive from cottage Grove to Reedsport. Wanted to mix it up this time. I think we will go back 199 to Grant's Pass on the way home.

RE: Crecent City via 199 Grant's Pass or 299 Redding
Just drove the 299 and then 101 North. Not to bad. Lots of turnouts and beautiful this time of year. We made 6 stops along the way (dogs and potty breaks) and pulled over many times for the faster traffic and made it to Crecent City in just under 5 1/2 hours. I would highly recommend this drive. Just have patience and go slow. We hit the 55mph speed limit in a few places for just a few minutes on 199. Most of the time, we under it.
There area a lot of grades but none over 7% for more than a mile. Most of them were 6% or less for a mile or two, with one or two just a little longer.
We were traveling with a dog and kid that gets car sick and neither got sick.
Safe travels.

We are looking for recommendations on campgrounds near the redwoods along the Northern California coast that is 5th wheel (32') and pup friendly. We are going to make the trip in late March.
Thanks in advance

5th Wheel Friendly RV Parks I-5 Norcal/ Southern Oregon
Howdy, we are going to be going south at the end of March and are looking for a nice overnight stop along this route.
Not looking for 5 star accommodation but some place that is near the Interstate that is not loaded with crackheads, and accepts small pups.
Thanks
