    Dodge Reservoir Campground

    Remote and isolated

    Due to the remote location, be prepared to have everything you need before heading there. 

    Co Rd 502 is narrow but paved (Mail Rte Rd). 12 miles

    Co Rd 506 Tuledad Rd is dirt, unimproved and has some washboard areas. Drive slow and you will be ready for the culvert crossing that have washed out a bit but at high speed can cause damage to your vehicle. 11 miles

    Driving slow is needed for several reasons. 1. to avoid hitting poor road areas too fast and damaging your rig. 2. to spot and take pictures of wildlife 3. Basic respect to keep road from degrading further. 

    We did not come across another person while driving in or out or during our stay at the campground. 

    Tables in each site and fire rings, clean from trash. Vault toilets were also clean. 

    Reservoir was down but still had enough water for the birds to enjoy. 

    Excellent for night sky viewing. 

    We have a 26' toy hauler fifth wheel, it has high ground clearance and upgraded suspension so we would had no difficulty with the road, when we come back with it. This was just a recon trip. 

    Downside: this is surrounded by public land, Dodge Ranch so you can't explorer off the road. Makes the use limited to light weight boat, kayak or paddle board. If you like to just go to camp, sit and relax, the you can certainly do that. 

    Advantage: Evidence of lots of wildlife, we saw pronghorn antelope on the way, a couple of foxes and plenty of birds of prey. No people

    Junipers Reservoir RV Resort

    RV Park in the middle of a working ranch

    You 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.

    Hawk's Nest Tionesta RV & Cabins

    90 miles from crater lake heading north

    • Forested with ponderosa pine.
    • 22 RV sites, 10 rustic cabins, 8 tents, group site
    • shower house
    • Full hookups *playground structure
    • Our friends and we had the place to ourselves. (Antelope fire very close, but smoke had dissipated after 3 hours of rain)
    • All pull through sites big enough to keep toad hooked up
    • The owner said their main season is hunting season which starts the end of September. We overnighted here the 9/12/21. Very pleasant.

    Howards Gulch Campground

    Small wooded FS camp

    If you need a spot dont moss this one! Easy access from highway though only a 1/4 mile to CG sign . Did not see a Howard's Gulch sign. Clean, quiet, some road noise IF a vehicle goes by. Lots of trees, a short hiking trail, good tasting water. Probably won't accommodate big rigs 35' max????

    Lassen Creek Campground

    Great spot!

    This was a lovely spot next to a small creek, and several sites had access to it. We towed a 18ft travel trailer and found lots of spaces it would fit, though I wouldn't recommend anything longer than about 25 feet. The restrooms were clean and stocked and several sites had stone stoves as well as fire rings. We used our GPS vs Google maps, had no problem finding the campground. It was secluded and had plenty of shade. We only stayed one night traveling through, but would definitely stay again.

    Stough Reservoir Campground

    Small pond in a peaceful setting

    We did not camp because we were doing a campground recon. There were 3 of the 8 sites that we could park our 26' fifth wheel trailer. 

    During our visit there was only one family using the facility. It is  a small campground, vault toilets and was clean when we were there. 

    We plan to come back in the future. We visited on a Sunday afternoon.

    Eagle's Nest RV Park

    Hospitality!

    We didn’t spend the night here, but were tempted. We pulled in to see if we could just pay to fill our fresh water tank. The owner wasn’t there, but the gentleman filling in for him was incredibly hospitable. He not only let us fill up, but offered to let us dump if we needed to (we didn’t).

    The campground is in a meadow-line setting at the end of a quiet road. You’ll pass another called Hawks Nest first. Keep going! Sites are pull through on grass and have full hookups, though you pay a nominal additional fee for the actual amount of electricity you use.

    Great proximity to Lava Beds National Monument.

    Will definitely put this on our list if we pass through again.

    Lower Rush Creek Campground

    Great USFS campground right of hwy

    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.
