Great for an overnight stop

We were looking for a nice Forest Service campground somewhere between Susanville and Weed, CA to stop for the night on our way home and came across this little gem situated on Hat Creek. There are 5 sites. Three are on the creek. One of the other sites has a big lava formation near it. The sites all have fire rings and tables. No water, there are two very clean vault toilets, and although there is road noise from Hwy 89, after dark it dies down and it was very quiet. We stayed there on a Thursday night and no one else was in the campground.
