Gumboot Campground

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Shasta National Forest's Gumboot Campground is a small dispersed site managed by the US Forest Service, situated near a pond where visitors have been spotted floating on the water. Chipmunks are common here. A pit toilet is on site and was recently reported in decent condition. Flies are present near the water. Campers who want low-key, drive-in access to campsites near Shasta National Forest with a water feature nearby will find this a workable base, though the site's limited review history means conditions may vary.

Peaceful pond

Small pond, lots of flys. But very peaceful. People floating in their floats on the water. Lots of chipmunks for the dog to chase. There is a pit toilet, pretty decent shape
