    Trail In RV Park & Campground

    I stayed in late october with a fire ban. After a week they liftrd it.

    Syayed in #3. Kind of confusing to get a reservation. Couldnt buy a ticket at the visitors center. Online only. Once i figured it out it is easy. Once there i went hiking but something was missing THE CAMPFIRE. That was when i started having fun. This is a clean campsite that is only 9.4 miles to west redding.

    Lake Siskiyou RV Resort

    I have frequented this RV campground several times over many years.  It is sad to see it becoming run down. The once paved interior roads are now barely discernable dirt paths. They also have a fee for locking in your chosen campground site for an additional $35 fee?!?!? Once you have waited for a specific site/s to become available to reserve, under what circumstances would they deem it reasonable to move you to another site without your consent?  I luckily did not (will not) pay the additional fee, and 90% of the campground was vacant the week I was there. That guaranteed reservation fee is just a scam to get more money out of you. The costs of the sites are not cheap to begin with.

    Incredible!

    Wow what a place, I’ve never seen anything quite like it.

    The road although incredibly long and winding was well maintained and I’m pretty sure even a car could make it without issue.

    The drive up was a whole experience in itself, reminded me of Last of The Mohicans, don’t slip!

    I went during hunting season without realizing it, out of the 10 sites 7 where taken up by hunters, but I only saw one person my whole stay.

    Nice campground

    Well maintained and clean park. Actually has grass, not all gravel. Sites level. Nice pool and laundry room. One night stay and arrived late so did self check in...no password for bathrooms were given, so asked a neighbor for a password. One of the restrooms was shut down for repairs. Too pricy.

    Not what I expected

    We were the only ones there for the most part. Every night there would be a few cars that drive through, but they didn’t stay. Bring yellow jacket traps - there’s a reason it’s named beehive

    Great campground

    This is an awesome campground with a single-lane road. I love visit it and join adventures in geometry dash lite. We managed to navigate it in an SUV with a teardrop trailer, but I wouldn't recommend towing anything longer. During our visit in May, the river flowed swiftly and cold, making it unsuitable for swimming or fishing. There is a well-maintained vault toilet on site, along with bear-proof recycling and trash receptacles. Limited to no service available for most of the journey. Remember, fire permits are mandatory.

    Quiet, peaceful

    Great little park. Lots of shade and green grass, good management, Clean restrooms and well kept grounds. Close to river and lakes for boating and fishing. There is a great area for tent camping or a place to dry camp with your RV just below the main RV park. There are targets set up for bow hunters in the pines below the park.

    Our 35 foot fifth wheel easily navigated the space.

    A little sketchy and not much shade

    The first spot you come across is super cute with little stone sculptures in the creek and a little shelter with carpet...and then you realize it's most likely a locals party zone and homeless camp. There was a trash pile, bags of potato chips...and potatoes.

    The next spot was cleaner and near the water, but the circular "driveway" was tight and had very little space. This is where we stayed.

    The rest of the spots weren't near water and were just open fields directly in the sun.

    Disgusting

    My family and I were recently evacuated from my home due to a wildfire. We are fortunate enough to have an RV and were able to get to an evacuation area. After staying a few days in the evacuation zone, we needed to refill our water and empty our tanks so I visited Boulder Creek.

    I offered to pay for some water and for use of their dump station. I was immediately met with the following statement by their front desk employee: “It’s 20 bucks to dump and I don’t do water fills.” 

    I’ve met some of the kindest and most gracious people during this incident, but I was disgusted as I walked out and noticed the freshly watered little planters full of flowers and the lack of humanity or even an attempt at kindness shown by Boulder Creek’s employees. 

    I highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Redding to find somewhere else.

    Exactly what I needed!

    I started my journey up at Shasta lake, but was driven out by bees. I sought several other locations but decided Trinity was a worthwhile shot. I quickly made an online reservation, paid the holding fee, got there 4 hours early because I needed to just land instead of driving aimlessly, and the staff was so accommodating! They allowed me to stay in the parking lot while my site was being prepared, and they even let me in an hour and half earlier than check in! My spot was easy and accessible, close to bathrooms and showers, near the front store which had everything I needed, including coffee, a short walk to the lake, and a view of stars you don’t see very often. I came for solitude, but found comfort in neighbors who have a mutual love and respect for these great outdoors. I even shared a meal with my neighbor! This is an incredible place and very well maintained grounds. Staff are driving around quite literally into the night hours keeping things clean. Thanks Trinity KAO Holiday! I will be seeing you again!

    beautiful bear playground

    oh wow what a fantastic and gorgeous location. really well maintained when it comes to their bathrooms (flushing & sinks) and trash cans… but holy bear. around 4am a black bear (maybe 500lbs?) came through our site and pulled on the bear box and kept it moving to check neighboring sites (which were vacant) only to come back shortly later for a few sniffs. this would’ve been less scary had we been in an RV buuuut tent camping + bear is not the vibe guys. it definitely smelled us and knew exactly where we were & we’re incredibly fortunate but of course we were terrified. i’d definitely come back with different equipment and plenty of mace and really wish there were more signs about the likelihood of bears in this area at this time. there were a handful of signs but so small and easy to get lost amid all the other super valuable information.

    This place was aptly named

    I didn't put two and two together. Woke up to the BIGGEST swarm of wasps circling our fireplace and trying to make a nest in our fender. Be very careful with putting all your cookware away and completely burn your used paper towels. We went during a no burn period, so we were out of luck and ran out of camp.

    Remote, full at first, but then OK

    16 miles off Hwy299, with a gorgeous, pretty good paved road, gets you to Denny Campground. Even though the camp is right next to the Denny Rd, traffic is nonexistent. There are 6 camp spots, and I was thankful to get the last open one. Granted school is out, I was hoping for more solitude on a Sunday/Monday stay. Turns out, several people were ‘day users’. The one vault toilet was clean & well supplied with TP. Access to the New River is a trail between site 1 & 2. A fairly steep trail leads down to a gorgeous swimming hole. Slow & steady coming back up wasn’t that bad. No cell service (Verizon). No trash bins or pickup; pack it out!!

    Great family camping area

    We had such a good time!!! The weather was beautiful, we didn’t have to interact with anyone-just put our fee for staying 2 nights in the designated box. The bathrooms were soo nice! Real toilets and sinks with mirrors. The lake is walking distance from the sites and the sites are far enough apart for privacy. My 2 year old had a blast! Also lots of firewood around, and fire pits were very nice! We bbqed on it everyday. 10/10- we will be back!

    Cool and green

    This was day one of a 20 day cruise! We were more than happy to escape the 110’ temps down in the valley. The campground was cramped as it was the 4th of July holiday. Sites are really packed together!
    The micro-canal that runs through it was great for our lab. He just loved tramping in and out. The nights were cool - almost chilly. Of note: the water is great! Pure and cold. However, it is high pressure. It exploded our water hose! After that we learned to place our pressure regulator valve right on the faucet. Then attach the hose and filter. We enjoyed the pizza and beer at the little micro-brewery at the entrance to the park. They are no longer brewing their own beer and they hope to sell the place soon. Pizza was excellent. A great place for kids, bikes, and dogs.
    Best advice: book this at least 2 months in advance

    Filming you while you sleep

    I was warned in advance by several other friends who’ve been here before not to go because the owners can be real jerks. I should have listened. The thing you should be most aware of is that no matter what anyone says, their response will always be: We didn’t do anything because you didn’t tell us about anything and if you told us about it, we would take care of it, we will fix it. You can see that on the reviews when they respond. My answer: BULL. No one wants to have a conversation with them because they are difficult people. The husband owner is a sneak, who only wants to film your“violations” to use against you, if needed later. In my case, filming me while he woke me up in my trailer early in the morning. The wife is a confrontational Gaslighter, who will bounce up onto you, get in your face, put her hands in your face and keep elevating her voice until you go away. Then, they can always use all the recorded footage of you as retribution. Go look at their YouTube channel. They’re openly doing this to people that disagree with them. You can see they actually get off on having the confrontation, recording it,(of course not recording THEIR part of the conversations, the part that got people pissed off, just the part where they have now pissed somebody else off) and then they’ll post it in violation of everyone’s privacy. I own up to my mistake but am not happy with how it was handled, and there’s no way I’m taking it up with them because I figure my being filmed while I wake up will end up on the Internet. My issue is that I brought one mini trailer and one teardrop trailer in a spot(together they’re 26 feet) where Class A and 40ft 5th wheels go. Logically, I’m using less space and less electricity(120 v plugged into our bigger trailer who is plugged into the park) no water, and only have 2 people(total) in site as opposed to the 10 people in the 38 ft trailer next to us, or the six guys with three cars and a boat trailer next to us, or the class 40 ft class a with an enclosed utility trailer that is bigger than my teardrop, but I was sleeping in my extra tow(hence the invader’s spycam to catch me sleeping). So, instead of talking to us about it, they just charged us for an extra site. The gaslighting wife said she emailed me. No she didn’t. She billed me the extra space(without my consent) and her system sent me an invoice, which took you to a site for the terms and conditions. But I’m not checking my email because I’m camping and it looked like the normal invoice I would’ve gotten anyway for the one site…so we don’t find any of this out until after noon—the cutoff to be non refundable. Keep in mind these owners are camping abut 20 feet from me. Why didn’t they just come over and talk to us? If they had, we would have said we disagreed but understood and packed up and leave instead of getting charged two sites again for the night. Instead, they let their office person tell this after 12, and we were past the refund cut off. While I support a business owner’s right to enforce their rules, even if only against us, It should have been discussed with us face-to-face. I mean, if you’re willing to pound on someone’s trailer before they’ve woken up in the morning, and film them in bed as they wake up to open their door, then you know where we are and you know how to get our attention. They took our choice away. They took our privacy away. And they paint themselves as the good guy on these reviews and on their YouTube channel where they are openly enjoying kicking people out of their park. Otherwise, it was an ugly park. Looks nice upfront, but the back sites are horrible. I got burned with scalding water trying to get water for my dog. I got splinters from these god-awful looking tables. There’s a pile of debris right behind us. They run heavy machinery all day. God knows what they’re doing with all the footage they’ve illegally collected over the years. Note to owners: YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO POST MY IMAGE OR LIKENESS ONLINE.

    This campground is excellent!! Great amenities and very fun.

    The only reason i did not give this a 5 star is the outdated information and no notifications posted of events or schedules.  The don't have a schedule for the theater, it's just random and at the employees discretion from my understanding.  At the splash zone the paperwork was outdated, and had rules for a dock that doesn't exist.  The shower code didn't work.  They advertise a shower near the day use area and there isn't.

Guide to French Gulch

Camping near French Gulch, California, offers a mix of beautiful scenery and outdoor activities. Whether you're looking for a quiet spot by the river or a family-friendly campground, there are plenty of options to explore.

What to do:

  • Hiking: There are many trails nearby, perfect for a day of exploring. Campers have noted that the hiking trails around Castle Crags State Park Campground offer stunning views. One reviewer mentioned, "Many hiking trail options. And a 'vista point' that shows Mt. Shasta, Castle Crags and the Eddies (outstanding view, ADA accessible)."
  • Water Sports: If you enjoy being on the water, Beehive Point Shoreline Campground is great for kayaking and paddleboarding. A visitor shared, "Great for water sports powered or canoes and paddle boards."
  • Fishing: The area is known for its fishing spots. Campers at Old Lewiston Bridge RV Resort have had success, with one saying, "We fished Lewiston lake less than 10 min. away and Whiskeytown Lake about 20-25 min. away with great luck."

What campers like:

  • Clean Facilities: Many campers appreciate well-maintained restrooms and showers. A guest at Railroad Park Resort noted, "The campsite was very clean and quiet. Beautiful scenery and easy to get to."
  • Friendly Staff: Campers often mention helpful staff. One reviewer at Trinity Lake KOA Holiday said, "The staff was so accommodating! They allowed me to stay in the parking lot while my site was being prepared."
  • Spacious Sites: Campers enjoy having room to spread out. A visitor at Hayward Flat remarked, "The sites are varied here. You have tent sites and RV sites and all are spacious."

What you should know:

  • Noise Levels: Some campgrounds are close to highways, which can be noisy. A camper at Castle Crags State Park Campground mentioned, "Only downside was the proximity to the freeway. Freeway noise noted."
  • Limited Amenities: Not all campgrounds have full amenities. For example, Beehive Point Shoreline Campground lacks drinking water and showers, as noted by a visitor who said, "It’s likely that the heat draws the bees out, so you may have a different experience other times of the year."
  • Reservations Recommended: During peak seasons, it's wise to book ahead. A reviewer at Trinity Lake KOA Holiday advised, "They charge for everything including an early check-in fee when we had to move sites due to reservation conflicts."

Tips for camping with families:

  • Choose Family-Friendly Campgrounds: Look for spots with activities for kids. Railroad Park Resort has a pool and hot tub, making it a hit with families. One parent said, "It was quiet and clean. We had to move during our first stay because we were too close to the brook with our small kiddos."
  • Pack Games and Activities: Bring along games to keep the kids entertained. A camper at Mountain Gate RV Park mentioned, "There are plenty of games like bocci and ladder ball."
  • Plan for Quiet Hours: Be mindful of noise during the night. A family at Hayward Flat noted, "The quiet hours were not enforced as we were woken up by loud partying well after 2 am."

Tips from RVers:
