"We took 2 small children in a rented camper and went to this lake in a recommendation from friends in Mt. Shasta .. we were not disappointed!"
"Love going to Lake Siskiyou. My family has been going the week of 4th of July for almost 30 years. It has a nice beach, boat ramp, party boat rentals, general store, restaurant, bar, arcade, laundry."
$66 - $149 / night
"For once a KOA not next to a freeway. Off the beaten path for a change. Nice grounds. I'm in a basic cabin. It's basic. No ac just a ceiling fan. Nice small queen bed with linens."
"They have four tent camping sites with electric hookup and fancy seating among many other types of sites"
$10 / night
"There are fire pits, hand-pump water spouts, small creek from water spring runoff, bathrooms, and its only $10 to stay. The surrounding area is beautiful, and the town is nearby."
"The running water comes down the mountain in the form of a creek, and there is a water pump at the well for those who would rather not test their constitution with the stream. "
$15 - $20 / night
"This was a convenient spot since it's close enough to the Oregon border, located close to Yreka and just far enough off the 1-5 to make you feel like you're off the beaten path."
"I had tent site right on the river and nearly had the place to myself."
"Our site had a good amount of space, and although there were a lot of campers around us, we didn't feel overly cramped and had a decent amount of space."
"Bathrooms are older but clean. Lake area was not crowded"
"Toad Lake is a pristine mountain lake accessible only via a long, rough, and rocky single lane dirt road (Toad Lake Road 40N64)."
"There is a bit of road noise that you can hear in the morning. We stayed in a grassy spot with no neighbours, so it was quite lovely. Bathrooms exceptionally clean and hosts friendly and helpful."
"No unruly pets, children, or anything. Two things weird, 2 people per site, otherwise they charge extra fees, & they only return calls (no one seems to manage phones) once a day."
$35 - $48 / night
"Welcoming on site couple gave us the low down on some nearby fishing and foraging spots."
$25 - $40 / night
"I’m camping here in my car basically in a gravel parking lot next to a meadow for tent campers. There’s very little privacy however! The amenities and addition opportunities make up for it."
"This is a beautiful campground that is great for renting and grabbing a great spot near Ashland as your driving through. Who doesn’t want to stop at a hot spring?"
$50 / night
"Walking distance to the water. Lots of obsidian with just a short walk. Very beautiful and secluded. Not many people and camp spots are located very far apart. Highly recommend. Nice star viewing."
ScoutPlan to keep your pets at home if you want to stay in the domes or bell tent. As another reviewer noted, the grounds have seen better days. I guess that's how they keep camping prices so low. 3 stars because of the hot springs---better as a day trip and not a place to stay
ScoutFor once a KOA not next to a freeway. Off the beaten path for a change. Nice grounds. I'm in a basic cabin. It's basic. No ac just a ceiling fan. Nice small queen bed with linens. Within walking distance of good restaurants. RV sites look level and large with trees near most. There is a train occasionally at night that can be annoying.
I recommend Mt Shasta KOA.
GuideIce Cream and beautiful lake for swimming and kayaking. We took the family here for Fathers Day and enjoyed the entire weekend. We kayaked, rode bikes and got ice cream on out way out. Huge campsite, with access to water.
Was a bit cold, so be sure to pack a nice jacket, and maybe a thin pair of gloves. Wind comes off the lake and the gloves helped when fishing. Lots of great spots to fish.
If you stay awhile there is also a restaurant by the boat dock. The dining area looked nice and the food smelled amazing. I hope to try it the next time we make a visit.
And thanks to the camphost who let us check out a half hour late because we read the paperwork wrong and thought we could check out at 2! Whoops, it’s really noon.
TravelerI’m camping here in my car basically in a gravel parking lot next to a meadow for tent campers. There’s very little privacy however! The amenities and addition opportunities make up for it. There are free showers, a bathroom with running water, potable water, and for $10 extra you get 1.5 hours soaking in a mineral pool, one hot one cold, and there’s also a sauna. In addition the showers inside the spa are much nicer!! I feel completely rejuvenated, and definitely recommend for anyone looking to have a relaxing evening :)
LegendWe stopped here on a road trip along Interstate 5. The location was conveniently close to the freeway, but still felt like a real campsite instead of traveler's stop. We couldn't hear the freeway and it had nice amenities like flush toilets. Our site was also pretty shady, which was nice in summer. It was pretty scenic; we were located just by a walking path and with a view of the river, however, the camp host did not enforce quiet hours. The large group next to us was extremely drunk and noisy and nobody ever stopped by. They took off the next morning (loudly exclaiming that they needed to pack up to avoid paying), so there was likely never an interaction with the host. We arrived late and couldn't leave to alert the host as it didn't feel safe to do so. I'm not sure where the host is situated in relation to where we were, but I suspect you could hear the party throughout the camp, throughout the night, so we were surprised that no action was taken. It didn't feel safe.
GuideNice little campground right next to a pretty river. When I stayed I was the only one at the campground. The sites are near the road but it seemed to have light usage and I never heard cars in the night.
No running water (unless you filter from the river) and no trash services, just a pit toilet.
This campground is a great place to stay before heading into the Trinity Alps. A 20 minute drive on a dirt road leads to the China Gultch Trailhead, a popular trail leading to Grizzly Lake.
I would definitely recommend this site to anyone headed into the Alps.
GuideWe stayed for a week and our campsite was great. Lots of trees for shade, solid fire ring, polite staff. This is a great location for exploring the Mount Shasta area. However, KOA prides itself as a brand who delivers clean bathrooms and these were horrific. Each time was an horrifying adventure with either muddy dirt strewn floors, giant hair clumps, full toilets, etc. There were the cheapest plastic shower curtains that mostly resembled Saran Wrap which led to the water on the floor issue. There was only 1 stool in 1 shower so everyone else put your stuff on the filthy floor or use the 1 hook to hold your towel, yesterday’s clothes, today’s new clothes and your toiletries. I never felt clean leaving that bathroom which made the week stay more arduous than necessary. There was a woman who we saw cleaning the bathroom twice a day and it was the only bathroom for a rather large and busy campsite. Coming from other KOA which are cleaned every hour this was an adjustment.
ScoutStayed here over the 4th of July weekend. Campers were respectful of quiet hours and staff was mostly courteous. They charge for everything including an early check-in fee when we had to move sites due to reservation conflicts. Lots of children and some camp sites are on top of each other. The water was low so fishing was difficult to find. Great for families with young children and those hoping for entertainment for kids. Not great if you are looking for space and quiet.
ScoutNice, small campground near the edge of Trinity Lake. Approximately 8 campsites can be reserved and 8 are available on a first come, first serve basis. There are no showers available, but there are showers at the nearby Bushytail campground up the road. Site 1 is the only site with electric hookups. The nearby lakeshore is quite muddy (depending upon water level), but provides great fishing and boating opportunities. A nice trail runs along the campground. There is no wifi or cellular coverage. Booking the site was a little confusing because the website noted "dry camping" - we did not know what to expect based on this description. However, there IS running drinking water and bathrooms with flush toilets and sinks on-site. Advise picking up firewood before arrival. There is no firewood available for purchase on-site. However, you are able to gather available wood. There is also a small store which sells firewood 10-15 minutes away (Pinewood Cove).
