  Ashland's Creekside Campground & RV Park

  Undergoing Improvements

  At highway 66 near Ashland this park has both RV and tent sites. The RV sites are full/partial hook up (30 amp only) and dry camping. Note though that even if you pay for partial or dry you will still need to pay $10/dump your tanks. We opted for just full hook ups here. The tent sites are near the creek.

  There was some work being done that appear to be some upgrades. There is a nice pool area, a pond and the creek. The sites are level with picnic tables and fire pits. There are bathrooms, free hot showers, laundry, dog run, playground and store. Also available is propane ($3.50/gallon) book exchange and ice. Wifi was fast and free.

  The road noise is noticeable but not too bad. Some of the spots can be close but for a night it wasn't bad. Pets are allowed on leash only but there were a couple of loose dogs running around so be aware. 

  NOTE: Google tells you to turn on the street (Neil Creek Rd) just after the park so if you have a big rig then turning around could be difficult. Keep an eye out for the campground and turn into it directly from the main road instead.

  All the office and maintenance staff were friendly and helpful and neighbors were friendly and quiet.  We didn't get the tweaker vibe mentioned in some previous reviews. This place is cute - maybe there are new owners (who changed the name from Glenyan to Ashland Creekside, maybe?) who are trying to turn things around.

  Good cell service ATT, Verizon and TMobile.

  Trailer Lane Campground

  Great place to stay!

  Wonderful place to stay! Very nice little campground in Weed, CA. We originally were just stopping for the night so I had reserved a 50 amp pull thru, but we had some problems with our fifth wheel and my husband wanted some shade to work on it. Karen was nice enough to juggle reservations and get us in a 30 amp back in that had shade. Plus, we ended up staying for two nights. Karen was very accommodating and helpful and we really appreciated it! The campground is fun, has some outdoor games, a small dog park, and a community fire pit. And visiting the goats and chickens was definitely a bonus! I highly recommend Trailer Lane Campground and would definitely stay there again! We didn't use the bathrooms or laundry.

  Trailer Lane Campground

  Mostly dirt parking lot. Owner operator was downright rude.

  We prepaid and we’re assigned a site. We showed up before the 2PM check in time and couldn’t raise anyone so pulled into our vacant site which was supposed to be pull through but sites are back to back so difficult to do in addition our site had a tree 12-14’ from electric and utilities. Had to jockey a number of time to position our slide outs each side of the tree and other side slide out behind electrical. Not easy to position.  Little later guy shows up and tells us we have to move. What?  Said we were in the required fire Lane.  I questioned it and he snapped that we had checked in early, I replied we tried the bell at the store and no one responded. Again we were chastised for being early.  He stated fire Lane was in back of our fifth wheel.  I paced it off and we were sixteen feet to the trailer behind.  He responded you have to move.  That would force us to pull forward almost out of our space.  Based on his rudeness we said we would just leave.  We were still charged even after requesting a refund.

  Ashland's Creekside Campground & RV Park

  Great price, good vibe, loud road, bad showers

  Good points: I think this is the cheapest campground with amenities near Ashland, only $27.50/night for a tent site with a water pump. The place didn't feel sketchy at all- although there are clearly some long term residents, it feels well-run and family friendly. Wifi was surprisingly fast and reached all the way over to the tent sites, and there is a place near the bathrooms to wash dishes. All tent sites were shady with large blackberry bushes providing privacy on three sides.

  The not-so-good: the tent sites have a road right behind them that's often busy and loud. The showers in the women's restroom have unbelievably poor water pressure, and the water temp fluctuated from boiling to freezing for no reason unless you twitched the dial just right. Also, there's no place to hang a hammock near the tent sites but that's just a quibble.

  Waiiaka RV Park

  Nice & Clean RV Park, Tight Spaces

  I stayed at this park with my daughter and dog for one night while passing through.

  The facilities are very clean, showers have nice hot water for a minimal fee.

  The dog park is small, but well maintained with poop bags on site for your use.

  The RV Park workers were fantastic, checked on us during set up to make sure we had what we needed.

  There are obviously quite a few long term renters at the park, but they showed pride in there homes and area. Everyone’s areas were clean and orderly, and the park was incredibly quiet.

  Only down side is the sites are tightly packed together. My door was only a couple off feet off of my neighbors hook ups. When the camper next to us packed up in the morning, we were outside by our door. The smell of sewage was pretty strong, we just went in our camper and waited for him to finish up.

  Worth a stop for the money if your going to be in the area.

  Antlers RV Park and Campground

  Hidden Gem North of Redding.

  We stayed here for 4 weeks while traveling for work in Redding, so I think our review is well qualified. We're traveling in a 40ft RV for reference though they do also have tent spaces. 

  First off, I'm surprised to be the first one to review this campground on the Dyrt, since it has a lot of informative reviews on Google. We looked at a handful of other campgrounds prior to staying here. Covid and wild fires did have an effect on the other campgrounds that were open, but of those that were,  I think this was one of the best. 

  It has all the amenities one could expect from a typical RV park, full hookups, wifi, cable, showers, laundry, etc. There's a cell tower on the way in to the campground. You can expect two to three bars of LTE from both AT&T and Verizon (we use both) . The staff is very friendly and helpful. I can't say enough about their exceptional attitudes. The spaces are all in the woods with mostly shade, though there are some that get more sunlight than others. The RV spaces are large and offer more privacy than most campgrounds. It tended to fill up on the weekends (sometimes completely) but was fairly quiet during weekdays with only a handful of people. Quiet and peaceful during the week. About thirty minutes to downtown Redding. Small gas station within walking distance, and a small grocery store in driving distance. 1.5 miles off the highway. Big rigs welcome. The website shows pictures of all the individual sites, quite helpful.

  It was a mostly positive experience, but we'll mention two negatives. The bathrooms  sometimes got pretty dirty on the busy weekends and ran out of supplies at times. Hard to say if the pandemic was causing short staff or not though. The other issue is the bears. Its wasn't an issue of them bothering us, we only physically saw them one time in four weeks. They got into the trash pretty regularly though. It was very evident in the morning when the cans would be knocked over and rummaged through.  It could be easily solved with some bear-proof trash cans. Not really a big deal and it didn't have any effect on our stay. 

  We'll definitely be coming back next time we're in the area. Checkout the reviews on Google for more perspective.

  Jubilee Railroad Wilderness Lodge & Campground was Railroad Park Resort

  Many different accommodations

  General: There are tent sites, partial hookups, and full hookup sites, as well as cabins and cabooses that can accommodate either couples or families. It was pouring when we were there, so we opted to stay in a caboose! There is also a dining car

  Site Quality: The camping sites are nestled among the trees; some are pull-throughs and others are back-in (mostly the tent sites). Most of the sites appeared level, but not all of them (beware of Site 34). The pull-throughs in the center are less private (but I believe these are the ones with full hookups). The best sites in my opinion are the ones that back up to Little Castle Creek. Especially after a good rain, you can be lulled to sleep by the sound of the rushing creek! 

  Bathhouse: Keypad entry so I was not able to see the inside (we stayed in a caboose and therefore did not have entry). There are showers and also a very nice laundry facility. 

  Activities: There is a pool in season and also a hot tub that was open when we were there. It is covered but it was cold and rainy, so we didn’t try it out. There is a short hike at nearby Hedge Creek Falls and you are close to Mount Shasta. 

  We stayed here 25 years ago in a caboose with our daughters, and it was nice to see the place has been kept up nicely. We would definitely return and stay in the campground next time (weather permitting).

  Castle Crags State Park Campground

  State of CA Campground, year round campground, dry camping only

  Some info to keep in mind when visiting...

  Year-round campground. Dry camping only. Has showers (nice hot water), and flush toilets. Showers are designed to accept tokens but this season not needed.

  Each site has a parking space, picnic table and fire pit. Some have older stone fireplaces (but most of these need repair). Nicely maintained. Staff is helpful and knowledgeable.

  This is an older campground , originally built by CC in 1930s. Oldest camping area is right next to I-5 (which was not there when the campground was built!). But there are newer camping sites farther away from I-5. Sites 39-63 are the farthest from the freeway noise.

  Most campsites have parking for one vehicle. Some will accept two vehicles like a truck and trailer. But, there are no sites for large RVs, or large trucks and 5th wheels and/or large pull behind RVs. Max length is 27' and only a couple of spaces that handle those.

  Campground and day use are mainly for people who like walking and hiking. Many hiking trail options. And a "vista point" that shows Mt. Shasta, Castle Crags and the Eddies (outstanding view, ADA accessible). No playground for kids. Though there is a second campground on the Sacramento River that is first come/first serve (13 sites) that allows fishing and river access for swimming.

  Both campgrounds have camp hosts on site for most active months. (May-Sept.)

  Reservations can be made online at reservecalifornia.com during the most active camping months May-Oct. Rest of the time first come/first serve. But, at any time, there are usually open sites. Feel free to call and check if sites available-even on short notice.

  Very popular campground for folks from OR and WA who are passing through going north or south on I-5. And there is a PCT campsite specifically made for those folks.

  Nearest town is Dunsmuir, CA about 5 miles north of the campground. Has nice city park (for kids). And, shops, grocery store, restaurants, etc.  Gas station/convenience store is 1/4 mile from park entrance.

  Come and see us and let's enjoy being outdoor again!

  Jubilee Railroad Wilderness Lodge & Campground was Railroad Park Resort

  Great Campground and Area History

  This is a great campground, and the locals will tell you all about the history of the railroad and the pushers for the trains to climb mount Shasta. It is in the process of changing to Jubilee Railroad Wilderness Lodge& Campground over the couple of years.

  It is near the I5 - so there is some road noise. The sites are reasonably spacious - and some are pull through. There is no dump station but you can use one of the full sites. There is a small store in the campground too.
