Confirmed by 1 users | Last reported on July 03, 2023We camped here in September, 2017. Camp hosts were friendly and you could buy firewood for your campfires from them (they could even deliver it to you in the little electric carts they used). We first chose a nice site, A46, and there were some people in the camp nearby, but it wasn’t very crowded. Pretty quiet place, with nice view of water. They’d had some problems over the summer with bears raiding the trash bins in the middle of the night, so we were careful to lock our food in the sturdy bearbox between campsites. Sure enough, the bear appeared about 3am, rummaging through the trash bins. From the tent above our car, we had a good look at him because there was a lamp on the main road. Fortunately he didn’t disturb us, tampered unsuccessfully with the bearbox and moved on. The security people patrolled more the second night we were there, which eased the nerves a bit, as midweek at this place had very few other campers. Hopefully by now they have installed sturdier trash bins. They said it was the first season their campground had a bear problem. Halfway through, we were able to switch sites, selecting A38, which is more private and has nice view of water, plus a canopy over picnic tables. Don’t think Mr. Bear visited us there either. We rented a small boat and toured a bit of the lake. The RV sites were nicely maintained and we saw one of the hosts raking the gravel pads. Bathrooms were older, but adequate. We had good showers there. General store with some supplies were available, including ice for our cooler. The marina shop also had ice and souvenirs. By weekend, several sites filled up quickly. Overall, we enjoyed it very much!

Gee wiz I was just greatful to have a place to park our trailer for the night. We were road weary and just needed 1 night. Our spot #9 was a pull thru with 2 picnic tables and a large concrete pad.
The twisty, dusty, dirt campground loops are bumpy, rutted and just terriblymaintained. The sites are many configurations, some packed in like sardines, some more spaced apart. Some little triangles of weed grass with tents on them. I was amazed at how many big rigs got in those tiny slots. But they did! Some slots were only a couple feet apart. And right next to out buildings and sheds scattered all about. It was the strangest "campground" I have ever been to. They call themselves a "Resort"....hummmm, I don't think so.
The place was packed with loud children, and families everywhere. It was extremely noisy but quieted down (thank God) at 10:00 sharp. Many people have come here as their vacation destination. I sure wouldn't recommend it.

Older place, showers are pretty "public park " bad(!) Wifi sucks. But...traveling in 105f all day I needed AC to get a good night rest, otherwise I would have tried the dry camping at the entrance of the area. You hear the trains go by in distance but not enough that it is bothersome.

Been going here since I was a baby it's the same park nothing has changed.
It was made back when a 30ft trailer was the top of the line and biggest on the road so the spaces are made to accommodate that. Folks with these massive insane things are gonna have a bit of a time trying to move around.
I love this little resort because it's friendly and homey.
Yeah it's outdated but it's still nice. The showers and bathrooms are made for normal sized folk, so you land whales won't have a good time.
Overall I still love it
And yeah there are trains so sleep through it or stay home it's only like 1 or 2 at night. Also the tracks are close so you can easily go and put change out there to get smashed

Very large rev park with very nice spots tucked into trees . The downside is the lakes current water level ! Very low so there’s not muck lake left . You can drive a few miles to a dirt ramp for paddle boards but boats are not common - bummer !
The fire damage is very noticeable from everywhere at this campground as it was across the lake .
We were the only people in the entire campground for 3 days and it was the weekend before Labor Day .
Pray for rain for Lake Shasta
