Stough Reservoir Campground is only 1 mile off Hwy 299 on a gravel road. At 6,200 feet it provides relief from the heat of the valleys on either side. Small trailers and motorhomes will find access and turn-arounds manageable. The reservoir is small but is kept stocked by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Water is provided and campsites sit away from the shore with nice views of the reservoir. Stough Reservoir is Number 4 on the Basin & Range Birding Trail. Bring you camera and binoculars and expect to see Prairie Falcons, Rufous Hummingbirds and Wild Turkeys.

Lassen is a lovely little campground near the obsidian mines. It is currently under discussion for decommissioning.This is__open area camping as there are no designated camp-sites. FRock fire rings are located throughout the area.
Guide
Although we had new solar, it was too hot to depend on that alone for the night, so my wife found this location. It was not a bad night's stay.
There are a few sites, all on dirt/gravel slots, no trees in the parking area. Nearest to the shower-bath house are double sites, a plug, 30-amp power and water for each side of the power box, and out towards the street are more like single sites, my wife was told those sites are for bigger rigs. The RV parking all looked like relatively new installations for the water and power.
Full hook up is water and electric with a dump station on site, no at site dumping available, for $25.00.
There is a pay station located at the shower-bath building with pay envelopes to fill out and drop in a lock box.
Bathrooms were actually very nice and clean. One side is the two bathrooms the other side two shower rooms.
The showers cost $3 or 5 dollars IN QUARTERS ONLY, and there is a change machine by the bathrooms if needed. As we were in our small Micro-Minnie Winnebago we opted to try the shower room. My wife and I paid the $3 for both of us and used the shower at the same time. Good water pressure, clean room, warm water.
We didn't need to dump, but it wasn't said well on any signage we saw, and we believed paying for full hook up was also to mean dumping was paid for. It costs $5.00 to dump if you don't pay for full or just need to stop and dump.
As there were no directions we were unsure how exactly you were supposed to park to be in "your site" so we just kinda went with it and parked to be able to stay connected to our truck without the truck sticking out too far in the driving lanes in case others came in to stay. There were only three RVs at the location that night, including ours, so it wasn't crowded.
It seemed like the back of the RV was supposed to be at the power water connection, but we never did find out for sure.
Since this visit was during the heatwave of July 2022, it was VERY nice to have power for the night, and we had our rig A/C on all night long.
It was a very quiet night, and if we were in in the region again, as long as the fair isn't going, we wouldn't have any problem staying there again. Overall a nice place, and we saved a lot of money from staying at a regular RV park. Nothing fancy but not bad either in our opinion.

There is a large group site. Restrooms and showers. RV hookups and a clean out station. Dog friendly but not very private. Almost no vegetation separating sites.

Peaceful and beautiful RV park about 8 miles west of Lakeview Oregon. All pull-thru level sites. Clean bathrooms/showers/laundry. Large grassy area with volleyball, horseshoes, and cornhole. Lots of hiking trails and rven a lake with fishing.
Ranger
Spent one night as we traveled north. This is not a high-end RV park. It is small (only 5 FHU sites) and has a number of permanent residences (who are quiet, and their residences are generally well maintained), but the RV sites are level, showers/bathrooms are clean, they have good laundry facilities, the Wi-Fi works well, and the place is quiet. Also reasonably priced. We would stay here again.
Guide
A really fun RV park with good shade. The owners were extremely nice and helpful. We could see Oregon’s only geyser erupt from our site!
Traveler
We were driving through and didn't make it to our next destination due to weather. Making a reservation on the road was easy online. Got our spot number and just pulled in and plugged into the power. Not much here but you get power, water, sewer and trash. Great little RV spot. You need to back in though. Only 6 spots here.
GuideVery nice out of the way stop. Very friendly camp hosts and good directions in and out. Facilities are older but well maintained. Some full time residents, but lot’s of available spots when we stopped by early in the season. Shower, bathrooms, laundry, water and electrical hookups. Lot’s of acreage to wander and beautiful vistas in every direction. Good AT&T service and the park has Wi-Fi.
GuideThere are spots to park your RV and hook up to water and electric. It is a gravel parking lot. There are designated tent spots in the dirt next to the gravel parking lot.
There is a nice heated restroom with flush toilets. Showers are available, however they are $3.
The area was very windy and noisy.

Camped here in June 2020 and got the single prime spot across the little pond with its own pit toilet. Snowed when we were there in June. No hookups but there’s water around the campsites and picnic tables and fire pits. Excellent little campground with maybe a dozen or so sites. Clean & well maintained. Beautiful Warner Mountains all around.
If you keep going up the forest road there are dispersed camping spots at higher elevation with great views but roads only suitable for small rigs. There’s both a BLM and USFS office in nearby Cedarville for info plus hot springs in Surprise Valley and lots of good rockhounding in nearby Warner mountains on the west side towards Lakeview. Would camp here again.
LegendThis campground is HIGH up in the mountains (over 5,000 feet) so remember sunscreen, water, and the fact that it’s going to get plenty cold at night regardless of the season. There is a lot of BLM boondocking activity in this area so it’s nice to have an actual campground.
There are seven sites in total and according to signage you can stay for a maximum of 14 days. This is plenty even when you take into consideration the vast number of hiking trails and off circuit lakes to explore. It’s a beautiful corner of California and highly underrated.
RVs can fit in these spots but the maximum length is about 24 feet. Vault toilets. No camp host and no cell service.
Guide
A small quiet campground near, but not on Drews creek. Only space for about 4 maybe 5 RVs. All sites great for tents. There are no services - no water, no electric, no dump. It does have two very nice and clean modern pit toilets. We had no cell service.
Guide
Camped here in my 19' Jayco Jayflight travel trailer. The spots are right along the creek with lots of mature trees as well as a toilet. It was fairly level and easy to get into a spot. This is more like boondocking than camping as the spots are not improved and the road in is dirt. It is beautiful. It's close to Davis Creek where people rockhound for Obsidian which is why I was there in the first place. I enjoyed camping here and would do so again.
Scout
We pulled in a 16ft camp trailer with no problem. Plenty of camp sites to choose from. There are a lot of trees to navigate with larger trailers. 19 ft trailer may be the max. Very peaceful
GuideYou drive down a gravel road right through a 6,000 acre working cattle ranch. There are 40 pull through RV sites with electric, water, and some sites have sewer. There is a dump station. We were there during a Blue moon with no light pollution and it felt like you could grab it out of the sky. Was quite an unexpected find.
RangerConfused? This lake must be seasonal because we could not find it while traveling around this campsite. There is a small marshy area and grass as if the lake is there at other times of the year. The campsites have very little privacy, but there are bathrooms, amenities, nice day-use area, pet exercise area, etc. This park is on the border of California near Lakeview… so while I did not necessary think it was worth the drive to go see this campground, the nearby town is a great little American escape for groceries, a great little Saturday Farmers Market, a nice cup of coffee, or just to explore.
GuideIt’s not a bad little park. Has electricity and water at the sites. Almost all our drive-through. Cost is $35 a night. Have bathrooms and showers.
Showers are not marked men or women. I am wondering if that’s the Oregon thing.
They’re working on making us a little nicer place. I think they’re going to have a store but they don’t have anything right now.
It’s right along the highway but it doesn’t seem too noisy. It’s not a busy road. Or at least not tonight.
Everything is gravel.
They have propane.
They don’t have a restriction on how old your RV is.
Legend
This little gem of a campground is at exactly half way between Adin and Madeline in the middle of nowhere up a pretty good dirt road. Only a few sites and some not really suitable for a RV as they are not very level. I wouldn't venture in here if I thought the road would be muddy as it could get western real fast. If the conditions are right you could have it all to yourself. Ash Creek which runs right by the campground is lovely with good fishing.

Free usfs camping! Secluded little campground right off 299. Follow directions on Dyrt app as coordinates don’t quite take you to the actual campground. There is signage as you turn off 299 but mileage is off. Pit toilets, trash and seasonal? water (was off when we were here in late October). Sites may be small for a big rig but fit our van with plenty of room.

Howards Gulch Campground • Modoc National Forest • $12
Northern California • Basin & Range Birding Trail 15 Northeastern location
Just past a hundred miles of farmfield coming from the North we enter the Modoc National Forest, and turn left against our GPS’ wishes into Howard’s Gulch Campground (Forest Service). Pay attention to the signs. It's analog but it's right. It’s a small, primitive camp in Northern California with 12 sites. Two which are walk in only and none which are for large RV’s. The fee is $12 which is significantly more than the next campground down the road which is free, but the consistency of the Forest Service sites makes it worth it.
The trees are tall and red, and according to a conveniently placed sign, coniferous. There are also signs indicating common birds of the area and their habitats, along with a 1.5 mile trail built by the U.S. Forest Service, California Department of Forestry and the California Department of Corrections. The trail has been dedicated “for your hiking pleasure…” This campground is also part of the Basin & Range Birding Trail system of Northern California and Southern Oregon.
Like all forest service campgrounds there is a fire pit and a picnic table in each site. Most of the sites are spaced relatively privately, but since you’re in the middle of nowhere you’ll probably be sharing the camp with one, maybe two other campers. In addition, some sites have a stand alone charcoal grilling set-ups.
Trails like this one lead right from camp. Bring your binoculars.
There are plenty of water taps. At least five, but since it isn’t potable there isn’t really much benefit. Since the water is being “treated with chemicals” I wouldn’t even recommend boiling it for use leaving it for the dousing of fires, but the camp is under no-burn restrictions. Rightfully so, considering the summer California has had so far.
Toilets are standard vaults, but there are three of them for 12 sites. Two of which are recent new builds. Being low in the gulch you’re surrounded by walls on three sides to the outer side of the camp loop. The inner loop still backs up to a cliff wall for an unusually located tall mound...and OHMYGOD MY WIFE JUST CHOPPED HER THUMB! SHIT! SHIT!SHIT!SHIT!SHIT!SHIT!SHIT!
...
The reason to camp here is…you’re on your way somewhere else most likely. Coming from Oregon to Yosemite or Tahoe or vice versa. But if you do you won’t be disappointed and if you like birds you’ll be pleasantly surprised. The nearest town is at least 20+ miles if you need anything so come prepared. My Wife's thumb is fine by the way. Despite a serious scare at the time. She field dressed it like a boss using our first aid kit (which we've since upgraded). She'll have a reminder scar, but her badass level went up like a million points. I give Howard’s Gulch 3 Tent Stakes of Awesomeness for being a solid campground with nice sites and trails leaving right from camp but not much else going on. Also, there is no indication of who Howard is. I certainly didn't meet him.
Pro-Tip #1: Prepare for summer heat. You aren’t at elevation here.
Pro-Tip #2: Bring binoculars.
Pro-Tip #3: Bring water and anything else you might need. No place near by to get anything.
ScoutThis is my favorite park of all time. I’ve been here multiple times since I was a kid, so I’m a little biased most likely. Last time I camped here it was on the off season and not the smartest decision. We were the only people camping in the entire park. The bathrooms were all locked even though the park was technically open. We didn’t come super prepared, it was in November about everything froze in the morning. Still we made it work and we had a blast. There’s multiple hikes like Bumpass Hill. There’s stunning views and lakes. It’s also not too populated, many people don’t know about it still. I highly recommend it.
GuideA good choice if all you want is a place to park for the night. $15 for dry camping, $20 for electric, $25 for water. Free WiFi $5 Dump station Good for dry weather, the parking lot will probably be muddy if wet.

On Thursday (10/12/23) I left home with the plan of driving to the Virgin Valley Hot Springs via 299/8A to see the Annular Solar Eclipse. I arrived at the state line a tad later than expected and followed a beautiful graded 'dyrt' road. The first camp I came across was Fish Spring. I saw some open spaces and figured things were going to get busy with the eclipse, so I grabbed a spot. Beautiful simplicity!!! No real defined spots, but several areas of access. Some pull-throughs were occupied by RVs, other spots had nothing but a car/tent combo. One vault toilet was very clean & well-stocked with paper. I could not find the spring or water spigot. There is a horse corral but looks to be in poor condition. A sign requests "pelletized feed only'. There were only a handful of fire rings and no picnic tables. This was my camp for 2 nights. The following day I drove the rough Mud Spring Canyon Rd to the Royal Peacock Mine & Virgin Valley, and on Saturday, witnessed the Annular Eclipse from here.
GuideThis place is under new ownership and they claim to be sprucing up the place. This may be so, but the restrooms are in need of repair, no electric outlets in bathrooms and one small sink, primitive mirror and a board shelf, no vanity, two out of three toilets in the ladies room are out of service and my wife said it smells awful. She spoke to another camper about it and they said they reported it earlier and nothing has been done yet. A little road noise but not too bad at night. Some shaded areas and all gravel. No fire rings or picnic tables. I’m assuming gas fire pit only as there are no fire rings
Scout
This sweet little place beside a creek in Surprise Valleyis just right for low-key tent camping and they have a place for a small van or RV too. Composting toilet, dipping in the creek, and a cool little town (restaurant there is open Thurs-Sun). It's on a farm, technically, but they are mostly taking time off farming. Dark skies and no worries.
LegendThis was a very open campground, very little privacy allotted for each site. There were some tree cover and grass. The lake was not very swimmable as it was dry, so we went to a nearby creek and enjoyed that.
It was pretty awesome to be on the state lines of Oregon and California, able to be two places at once. The town of New Pine Creek spans both states and has lots of fun places to visit and see.
TravelerIts ideal if you’re coming from California and headed to Oregon. A couple hours away from Crater Lake.
GuideMy husband and I took a quick trip to North Eastern California for some rock hounding. We came upon this campground toward the end of the evening. It's a dry camp ground with pit toilets. The best part was that there were not designated camp sites - find a fire ring, and camp away. Our nearest neighbor was well over 200 yards away. It was a great spot and perfect for 4th of July weekend. We will definitely be returning to this location!
