Best RV Parks & Resorts near Anderson, CA

Several RV parks surround Anderson, California, providing full hookup service for motorhomes and travel trailers. Red Bluff KOA Journey features 173 sites with 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections, remaining open year-round. Boulder Creek RV Redding accommodates big rigs with pull-through sites on level pads approximately 15 miles north of Anderson. Sacramento River RV Park offers riverside locations with concrete pads wide enough for both parking and patio space, though sites can be somewhat close together. Red Bluff RV Park includes back-in spots suitable for rigs up to 38 feet, with tighter turning radiuses challenging larger motorhomes. "We did not make reservations just took a chance, success! They did have a spot that we would fit without unhitching. This is an older park so we were somewhat squished together but not bad."

Between Redding and Red Bluff, most RV parks provide essential amenities including dump stations, showers, and laundry facilities. Cell service varies by location, with stronger Verizon signals reported at parks closer to Interstate 5. Some facilities charge additional fees for amenities - showers at Rolling Hills Casino Truck Lot cost $15 per person despite the reasonable nightly rate of $50-55 for Good Sam members. Dog areas are available at many parks, though not all are fenced. During summer months, particularly July through September, advance reservations are recommended as parks fill quickly with travelers visiting nearby Lassen Volcanic National Park and Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area. Propane service is limited, with only select parks offering on-site refills.

    Mill Creek Resort

    Nice Private Campground

    This campground is just south of Lassen Volcanic National Park.  It has two main sections, one for RVs and the other for tents.  There are a small number of RV sites with full hookups and then a larger number of tent sites.  The RV sites are fairly small, but felt separated enough to have some privacy.  The tent sites are a bit more rustic.

    The other slightly odd part is that most of the RV sites were filled with people who came and stayed for the entire summer, year after year.  We were the only not long-term camper in the RV section.  

    Pros:

    * Close to a lot of amazing scenery with Lassen

    * Well kept, clean, quiet campground

    * Camp store/restaurant is great

    * Laundry on site

    * Access to a nice little creek w/swimming hole

    Cons:

    * Camp store is open limited days

    * Tent sites only have pit toilets which are not the best maintained

    OK:

    * No fires in the RV sites

    * Showers were not always very clean

    Hat Creek Resort & RV Park

    More than just camping

    More to the campground than just camping. Fishing in camp and nearby. Friendly staff. Had originally reserved a back in site, but emailed to hopefully get a pull through. Got a quick reply, and all taken care of. Campground is close to other fishing, the Subway Cave (ya gotta go there) Lassen National Park entrance and much more.

    Manzanita Lake Campground — Lassen Volcanic National Park

    Manzanita Lake Campground - Tidy but Tight Spaces

    Manzanita Lake Campground is the campground closest to the north entrance to Lassen Volcanic National Park. It is best accessed from California State Route 44/89. My wife and I reserved space A8 for a four-night stay beginning August 7, 2023. 

    While the campground is well-maintained, I cannot, under any circumstances, recommend that space for anyone camping with an RV or travel trailer. From all appearances A8 looked perfect. But appearances can be deceiving. Looking at an online map of the campground A8 appeared to be a pull-through site which it is. The problem is the site dips down from the access road, bottoms out slightly, then rises again back toward the access road. It took us nearly an hour to locate an area within the space that would allow us to attain a reasonable level so that our refrigerator would operate on propane. And our travel trailer is only 18-feet in length. Once the trailer was reasonably level, the entry step was approximately 18 inches from ground to the step (see images).

    Despite the initial difficulties, once settled, we found the campground to be quiet even though there is not a lot of space between sites. The camp store offers some grocery items but is mainly dedicated to the sale of tourist merchandise. It does have a gas pump offering only 87 octane regular gas at $4.99 per gallon - cash only which is below market price for the area.

    We would camp at Manzanita Lake Campground in the future but would be highly selective in our choice of sites - driving through the various loops we noted that very few are close to level.

    The Parkway RV Resort & Campground

    Great place for stopover

    We found this site via the Dyrt app. We stayed one night, in an very hot week. We really appreciated the pool, the very friendly staff and clean restrooms. Note that the pull through sites have some shade, but the gravel is a small heat island, so it takes long to cool down in a camper van without AC.

    Rolling Hills Casino Truck Lot

    Hidden Gem!

    Only $55 for a full hookup that’s a pull through. $50 for Good Sam Members. We came in too late to enjoy the comedy shows they have every first Saturday. If you happen to make it on time, “Carlinos” or the place the host it is in the North Tower. Go right at the main entrance. We missed it by wandering around the casino trying to find it. There are also amazing views at sunset and sunrise if you get to the lots closer to the end- which we didn’t. Great front desk staff! They also have routine patrol security.

    Laundry: $2.00 for washing machines and $1.00 for dryers. Must be done by 10 pm with the last load starting at 8 pm.

    Showers: $15/person- not included in RV fee

    Dump station: $10- only from 9am- 5 pm, although each site has sewer hookups.

    No wifi, but I’m not upset because the price was great and I had good cell coverage.

    Summit Lake North — Lassen Volcanic National Park

    Small quiet retreat

    Stayed 2 nights, August 17 and 18 in B22, Loop B.  This is a smaller campground that contains 2 Loops, A & B.  We could see a bit of the lake from our site through the trees.  No hookups although drinking water is offered as well as restrooms.  Campgrounds are well maintained with bear lockers and rv sites ample.  Road into the park as well as rv sites can accommodate big rigs.  Generator hours are a bit odd although the only time we needed it was briefly in the morning to fix meals.  Clouds drifted in about 2:00 p.m. each day with some sprinkles for about 1/2 hour keeping temps cool.  Wonderful stay!  Definitely would come back - picked out our preferred site already!

    Manzanita Lake Campground — Lassen Volcanic National Park

    Campground - Meh; Lassen - Gorgeous!

    General: Four loops plus a cabin loop, however, after September 5 at noon, the only loops open are A, B, and cabins. 

    Site Quality: Some pull-throughs and some back-in. The back-in sites were, for the most part, better suited for tent camping as the camper pads were quite short and many were not level. We lucked out in that our camper pad was only slightly unlevel and we could make it work with our camper van. Some sites were close together with minimal separation while others had more trees separating them. 

    Bath/Shower house: There were several toilet options ranging from vault toilets to basic bathrooms with flush toilets, to larger restrooms with dishwashing sinks. Although there was a soap dispenser in the two closest to our site, there was no soap. The very cold water was oh-so refreshing on a cold September morning! The dishwashing sink in the A loop was locked but we did see campers using the one in the B Loop.

    Activities/Amenities: There is a camper store with food, showers, gas, and laundry available. You can access both Manzanita and Reflection Lakes (1.5 and.5 miles respectively) from the campground. The Chaos Crags trailhead is approximately a half mile from the A Loop. There are kayak, cataraft, and SUP rentals available for Manzanita Lake but it was a bit chilly when we were there. There is zero cell service in the campground but it is noted there is a milepost where you can grab a signal. On our Chaos Crags hike, however, we got a strong signal on Verizon!

    The campground was okay but worth it as a base camp for exploring the northwest part of the park. Happy this one has not been outsourced to a vendor and the price is still reasonable ($26 or$13 with the senior pass).


Guide to Anderson

Anderson, California offers a range of RV campgrounds between Redding and Red Bluff along the Interstate 5 corridor. Located in the northern Sacramento Valley at approximately 430 feet elevation, summer temperatures frequently exceed 100°F from June through September. Winter brings mild daytime temperatures with occasional frost and fog during December and January.

What to do

Swimming access: Durango RV Resort (now Red Bluff KOA Journey) provides a refreshing pool for hot days. "The pool was refreshing in 95 degree heat. Wonderful and clean facilities," notes one camper who stayed overnight between destinations.

River activities: The Sacramento River runs alongside several campgrounds, offering fishing and wildlife viewing. At Sacramento River RV Park, campers report seeing diverse wildlife. "There are good river views and we even saw a deer," mentions a recent visitor who spent two nights at the park.

Outdoor recreation: Beyond the immediate Anderson area, Old Lewiston Bridge RV Resort offers access to fishing spots within a short drive. "We fished Lewiston lake less than 10 min. away and Whiskeytown Lake about 20-25 min. away with great luck," reports one guest who received local fishing tips from the camp host.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Many campgrounds maintain well-kept bathrooms and showers. Mountain Gate RV Park consistently receives praise for cleanliness. "We loved our stay. We felt safe and it's probably one of the most cleanest campground and facilities I've ever been to. Clean bathrooms, showers, zero trash around," writes one satisfied camper.

Accessibility: Most RV parks in the Anderson area offer convenient access from Interstate 5. The Trail In RV Park is "close to the highway buy not noisy. Office staff is very friendly and quick to answer phone/email inquiries," according to a winter traveler.

Space and greenery: Unlike some RV parks that feel cramped, several Anderson-area options provide more room. Red Bluff RV Park offers "a nice grassy area and concrete patio. Sites are level. Great showers and laundry. Nice dog play area. Away from highway noise. Lots of shade trees."

What you should know

Reservation recommendations: During summer months, advance booking becomes essential. "We did not make reservations just took a chance, success!" notes one lucky traveler at Red Bluff RV Park, though this approach is risky during peak season.

Size limitations: Some parks accommodate larger rigs better than others. At Redding RV Park, a recent camper noted: "I'm pulling a 21-foot travel trailer and we had a level back-in site. Management allowed us to park our truck in the empty space right next to our camper, which was super convenient."

Seasonal considerations: Fire restrictions often apply during summer and fall. At Trail In RV Park, one camper mentioned: "I stayed in late October with a fire ban. After a week they lifted it."

Tips for camping with families

Pool availability: Several RV campgrounds in the Anderson area offer pools, though hours and seasonal availability vary. "The kids were entertained and gave adults some time to relax," notes a camper who stayed at Red Bluff KOA Journey during an evacuation.

Playground access: Some parks include play areas for children. Sacramento River RV Park features "a newly built sunshaded playground for the kids, ultimate course on grounds."

Educational opportunities: Boulder Creek RV Redding includes natural features children might enjoy. "The grounds were beautiful, and included a small waterfall & koi pond, and a play structure for the littles," writes a family who ended their weeklong road trip at this park.

Tips from RVers

Leveling and setup: Sites at most Anderson area RV parks require minimal leveling. "The spots are grassed, all clean and well maintained. The spaces are wide. Wider than any other places we have stayed," notes a camper at Old Lewiston Bridge RV Resort.

Turning radius: RVers with larger motorhomes should check with parks about access. For Red Bluff RV Park, an RVer with a 38' class A noted tight turns: "Those with longer rigs 40+ may want to think twice because of the tight turns and narrow lanes."

Pest prevention: Watch for ants at some parks, particularly during warmer months. One camper at Marina RV Park warned: "Another guest warned us as they had the same experience but after over a year and a half on the road full time, this one night stop has led to serious ant issues in our rig."
