Accessible only by boat, this Forest Service campground sits on Trinity Lake's eastern shore. The boat-in sites require campers to transport all gear across the water, making it a more remote option than standard drive-up locations. Sites lack hookups and potable water, so visitors must bring their own supplies or treat lake water.
The campground operates within Trinity National Forest boundaries, with the nearest road access at marinas several miles away by water. Boaters can explore additional camping spots near Trinity National Forest for comparison. Captain's Point works best for experienced campers comfortable with boat-based logistics and self-sufficient camping.
