A very hip parking lot
Camping at The Loge Mt Shasta will have you humming the song“They paved paradise and put up a parking lot…” The Loge is cute and hip and there are fun fairy lights at night and wifi and a coffee shop with lattes right outside your tent in the morning. There is a community fire pit and a shared kitchen and grilling area. There is also a train going by right near you most of the night, gravel under your sleeping pad, and neighbors within inches of you who may use the easily accessible electricity and wifi to stream music. The tent area looks like a horse corral and has canvas over the top to keep you mostly try if it rains. Bathrooms are in the hotel building across the way. There are lots of beautiful natural places to camp near Shasta that are much cheaper and much much more scenic. I chose to stay here because I was working from the road and needed wifi. If I stayed here again I’d spring for a room- otherwise I think I’ll hit up nature camping next time.
