Nice creek

Good spot to stay, lots of spots along the creek, only saw about 4 other people while I was here on Monday-Tuesday. Plenty of room for travel trailers (although the road is a little narrow if you come in from Twin Pines road). No service but you can drive to the overlook between Twin Pines road and Big Pine campground entrance to get 1 bar.

Good spot! Found some black raspberries along the creek :)

Amazing

Nice spread out private spot. I had a spot right up against the creek. Listening to that all night was chefs kiss. No service, not great for starlink but you won’t need it because of the peace and beauty. Not crowded

Absolutely amazing camping area!!

Best dispersed camping near Lassen. Area is clean w/ amazing creek side sites, fire pits, and plenty of space between. Nice and quite, other than the beautiful sounds of the babbling creek & birds. Definitely coming back!!

Perfect spot for kids and dogs!

Right next to the creek and big spots! Our motorhome drove down here just fine. Caught a bunch of trout in the creek and had an absolute blast. Quiet and safe and lots of shade.

Great Dispersed spots

Plenty of dispersed camping along the creek just south of Big Pine Campground. We found a could spots that our 38ft fifth wheel could fit, and many spots for smaller rigs. Water, dump, and trash are available at Old Station Visitor Information Center just north (RV sewer dump closes mid October)
