"Excellent location for lake and swimming hole access. Kirkwood right down the road provides groceries as needed"
"Once again we found ourselves on the weekend of our road trip and because we didn't have a plan of where exactly we would be on a certain day- we failed to stay in Lake Tahoe."
$5 / night
"You may drive to a bathroom.
Now, surpass those issues, and the bears and rattlesnakes and hoards of meat bees, lol, and this was the most beautiful site I've ever stayed in."

"Bucks lake is our family’s favorite. Lake is big enough for boating and fishing and never seems to be overcrowded."
"The spaces are large, sunny and shaded with lovely trees and all within walking distance from the lake. Staff is friendly and helpful and the park is always clean. "
"Our visit to Lake Almanor was amazing. My Dad brought his sail boat and the wind was perfect for sailing. The campgrounds are spacious and the restrooms are clean."
$17 / night
"This campground is a hidden gem on Butt Lake. There are first come first serve sites and also sites to be reserved. It has a few walk in sites and mostly drive in."

$31 / night
"Walking trails connect to the campground! What a delight and right near Bucks Lake!
It is bear country, and the campsite was visited by a bear at night."
"Clean campground, great fishing, and nice trail around lake. Kids love camping here. Bathrooms are kept clean and stocked 2-3x a day."
$35 - $80 / night
"I would stay here a couple nights again, because the creek is beautiful, and the valley seems remote, while still being close to a moderately large highway, and Quincy, for restocking."
"Only downside is it is near a railroad. Be aware that google maps will take you through private property so you need to look at the map to avoid that!"
"Most people flock to the nearby Lake Almanor or Butt Valley campgrounds, so Yellow Creek Campground is a nice place to go to escape bigger and busier spots."
"It's close to the lake and market. We love to get ice cream before dinner :) Only negative - not all of the spaces have bear boxes and we had a nice visitor one morning."
"It's along a cove in the lake. Super nice hosts and nice campers. The bathrooms are kind of gross but that's expected. Always camp here when we go to the lake."
$35 - $45 / night
"Its a short walk down to the river. The river is warm and slow right there and it has crawfish. My boys caught a handful and had a great time!"
GuideBeautiful campground. Quiet. Plenty of wood for a fire. Sites are spacious and good distance between each. It is buggy. Flush toilets aren’t open, but they have the cleanest vault toilets I’ve ever seen.
TravelerThe bad 🦟 Tons of mosquitoes! The Good- Great campsite in a nice remote area to take in nature, go hiking, bike riding, and fishing for trout! This is a great place to get off the grid and electronic devices and have some fun! Camp hosts are really friendly as are other campers here. Good mix of age groups and families. There is no beach to the lake, so sun bathers be warned.
GuideCheck the NPS website. Walk-in tent camping currently closed; however, RV's allowed to park overnight in center of gently sloped Asphalt Parking lot for $10/ night ($5 seniors). Nice restrooms and wi-fi available in visitor center lobby 24h/d. A very good option! Visitor Center has cafe...
ScoutClean and friendly staff.
Nice stop for showers, laundry and relaxation.
TravelerCamping here in early April, we weren’t able to access anything past the pull off from the highway. The area has a good amount of space that we felt safe enough to put two tents down.
RangerThis spot is quite secluded along a creek. The creek is running really good and there are lots of spots for parking. I would definitely park here again. Ideal for larger rigs, not real sure as it's been a while.
ScoutMen’s shower code is 9271 as of 10/10/24 for all you stinky campers (myself included)
ScoutPlenty of dispersed camping along the creek just south of Big Pine Campground. We found a could spots that our 38ft fifth wheel could fit, and many spots for smaller rigs. Water, dump, and trash are available at Old Station Visitor Information Center just north (RV sewer dump closes mid October)
