"While I generally like campsites close to the river, those set against the hill seem to provide a little more shade and privacy."
"We have a 25' pull-behind trailer, so our boondocking options were very limited as most in that area that we could find were set for tenters or very small rv's."
"Beautiful location"
"Not too far from a glacier lake, so good for hiking. Bears not too far away."
"We were looking for.a place to camp near Redding, our home town. This campground is about 30 mins from Redding. It was an easy tow on rural but well maintained roads all the way to the campground."
"There are tent sites away from the rv part, but we never checked that area out. The rv spots are very clean, and even though they’re close together with no privacy it was an amazingly quiet park."
"Great little hiking trail steps from our site. Easy access to the water for some swimming. Smoke blew in from wildfires. Visibility very low but still beautiful."
"Luckily the weather was so amazing especially being right next to this beautiful clear clean lake. We stayed at site 14, across from us was a small path that lead you down to the water."
$120 / night
"Beautiful creek running through so many different trails to choose from. Nice and shady"
$23 - $60 / night
"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!"
"This is a great camp area, however when we went the Lake was really low. It was still very nice for fishing and kayaking."
"Lots of people in and out fishing Short trail at the end of the campground that follows the river."
$25 - $65 / night
"Pleasant, grassy, mostly shaded area behind the main building. Restroom and showers, no extra charge. We paid $25 dollars to the helpful host. She asked for cash."
TravelerI travelled about 100 miles on 'Bob's' road, or 'Bill's' road because highway 36 was closed. WOW! The second hundred miles were okay, but the scenery was, on both stretches of road, just fantastic. The lake is beautiful, blue/green and surrounded by green.
The camp itself is great, although I have suspicion that a lot, or most, of the sites are weekenders, or people who come here for a week or two. Lots of sites have 'stuff,' meaning there's boats, RVs, trailers, tents, chairs, hanging lights, but no people.
GuideEasy in and out. 20$ for the night. Babbling water to sleep to. Host is super friendly.
ScoutOopsies. Did NOT know this was walk in only campground. We camp out of our 4Runner and ended up having to buy a tent and haul everything into our site. They provide a wheelbarrow for hauling your stuff but it was pretty rough we missed that key point in our planning. We ended up staying for the lake floating and views on our way to Trinity Alps.
ScoutDrove over to Deerlick Springs from Red Bluff and the gravel/dirt road from the pavement is pretty nice but I wouldn’t take a trailer in there. The campground is overgrown with weeds/grass and I think the store is a house now. There was one camper in the northeastern part but it looks like he lives there. The toilets need some work, appears they haven’t been pumped since last year. Very disappointing! My grandparents used to go there and get the “water” and take baths in the water. As a kid I used to walk to the store for candy and there was always Bingo to play. I also remember feeding the large tame bucks in the “courtyard”.
GuideThere are pull offs along the road that you could do a quick overnight
GuideWildly peaceful. Read the description in the bio, follow the directions, and you’ll find yourself able to choose from a handful of campsites. We took the right turn once you get up to the sign showing you all the campsites. the second campsite you can drive to is on the left and you have an insane view of the trees. the sunset was absolutely incredible.
GuideNice spot for an overnight stay. The views on your way are amazing.
Only spent 1 night here, very quiet during the day time.
TravelerWe just spent two nights here.
The park is quiet and the people are friendly. There are good river views and we even saw a deer.
It’s a little pricey but not a bad option.
LegendWe stayed over night and will do so again. The park is beautiful! Close to the mountain for skiing. Close to the lake for skiing. Nancy the manager was extremely helpful! We found this to have an old fashioned touch. Garbage facilities close by! Our Starlink worked extremely well here
