Multiple RV parks serve the Litchfield area, with Days End RV Park offering big-rig friendly sites with full hookups including 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections. The park features relatively level concrete pads and maintains clean facilities year-round. "Very clean, full hook ups, can accommodate big rigs. Weekly, monthly, overnight," noted one camper about Days End. Honey Lake Campground, open all seasons, provides 30-amp hookups with water and sewer connections in a setting that accommodates both smaller and larger RVs. Nearby Susanville RV Park maintains 101 sites with electric and water hookups, though reviews describe it as "a large concrete lot" with limited shade options.
Road conditions vary significantly when accessing certain campgrounds in the region. The drive to Dodge Reservoir requires preparation as one reviewer cautioned: "Due to the remote location, be prepared to have everything you need before heading there. Co Rd 506 Tuledad Rd is dirt, unimproved and has some washboard areas." Most RV parks near Litchfield operate seasonally, with several closing during winter months. Dump stations are available at most established RV parks, though availability at public campgrounds may be limited. Cell service proves inconsistent throughout the area—strong near towns but often nonexistent at remote locations. Pet policies generally allow dogs at most parks, though specific restrictions may apply regarding breed, size, or designated areas.

Horrible Experience
We paid for 5 nights, and left after four. The first day we were immediately approached by the host who rudely lectured about us leaving a phone number off of the pay envelope. The envelope had no designated spot for a phone number. She then handed us a list off rules: No dogs of leash, no generator off the blacktop, no outdoor showers, no chainsaw, and on and on. We were the only ones who kept our dog on a leash. She sold us two bundles of pine firewood the first night then proceeded to tell us the next day the water would be off and we couldn’t have a campfire. Friday night comes around and starting at 11 pm a woman is screaming and our tent is lit up by spotlights. She continues her drunken screams until 12:30 which we figure out she is calling a dog. The spotlights stayed on until 2am. The host lives way above the campground and there is no possible way she can hear the goings on at night. We also have no way of contacting her. Saturday morning we are told the water will be off and this time we are not allowed to use our stove or lanterns. We were forced to cut our trip short because we had no way to cook our meals or have adequate lighting once it got dark. I initially planned to stop payment on the check I wrote but felt that wouldn’t be right because we had a few good days. I contacted them and was told we were not forced to leave left on our own so we wouldn’t be getting a refund. The host was very overbearing she even knocked on our neighbors camper door accusing him of leaving the toilet seat up in the outhouse. Our vacation was ruined

SAFETY HAZARDS: So many trees cut down with branches and debris left over and not picked up by the contractor or the USFS that could cause injury or death. Imagine tripping or falling in a hole and being punctured by pointy branches. I am sure this was not inspected after the contractor left or prior to departure.
HEALTH: Womens bathroom was open on Saturday 12 Sep 26, but then it was locked on Sunday 13 Sep 26. Water spigots were also turned off outside. The RV dump station down the street was also closed too. Not sure what happening here as it is not the end of the season yet.
SITES: Images online are not current/out-of-date, don't trust it. Many sites including mine had a lot of trees and now it has 1 or 2, with many stumps and debris left behind. Many sites have zero trees now. Our 20ft campervan barely fit on the asphalt pad and many were only about 10-15 feet long and then others were over 50. I guess you take a chance on what is real and what is not.
SIDEBAR: Over at the North campground, I saw cleanup crews with chainsaws doing work within 10-15 feet of a family who was camping and eating breakfast at the table. I would think this would be a not only a noise issue but also flying debris issue. I guess the USFS does not care about safety of the paying public.
OVERALL: I understand fire prevention, but when you cut down living trees and leave behind the branches and such to dry out, now that is a new fire hazard along with the safety hazard. So sad to see such nice campgrounds being turned into such eyesores and hazards. If you have small children, senior citizens or pets, I would strongly urge you not to make a reservation here. If you just need to a place to park your camper(not tent) then it would be okay as long as you are away during the day as there is very limited shade now. Oh, I forget to say my parents raised me here and they lived here after I went in the Navy and this is an embarrassment to the Almanor Ranger District in Chester.

Good views and open
Not crowded, has two bathrooms, boat access, great selection of spots, and great views from the trees onto the lake. Great stargazing too. Easy access for our 17ft camper trailer

Quiet Campground with Stellar Sunsets
Right on Eagle Lake in Lassen National Forest, this campground has a mix of electric and non electric sites with views of the lake. Clean bathrooms with mirrors, flush toilets but no showers. If you want a shower, bike, walk or drive down to the marina where they have private rooms for showers. Boating, kayak and paddleboard in addition to fishing (water is high alkaline which makes for big trout). Quiet campground with big sites.
Guide to Litchfield
The Litchfield area sits at an elevation of approximately 4,100 feet in northeastern California's high desert region, where temperatures can fluctuate dramatically between seasons. RV camping near Litchfield provides access to Honey Lake Valley and the eastern Sierra Nevada mountains. The region typically experiences hot, dry summers and cold winters with occasional snowfall that affects campground accessibility.
What to do
Fishing opportunities: Eagle Lake, accessible from Merrill Campground, offers trout fishing and water activities. "Great campsite in a nice remote area to take in nature, go hiking, bike riding, and fishing for trout! This is a great place to get off the grid and electronic devices and have some fun!" notes a camper at Merrill.
Nearby lakes: Multiple alpine lakes within 30-minute drives from the campgrounds provide swimming and boating options. A visitor to Little Bear RV Park recommends, "A good stop to make if you come here is Upper Sardine Lake! By far the prettiest place on Earth, and only 20 minutes from this campground."
Local town exploration: Graeagle offers small shops and dining within walking distance of some RV parks. "The town is only 1 mile from the RV park and you can easily walk there. I highly recommend the Graeagle Outpost for coffee, ice cream, and more," shares a camper at Movin' West RV Park.
What campers like
Clean facilities: Campgrounds in the area maintain well-kept bathrooms and grounds. At Movin' West RV Park, a camper notes, "The showers are extremely clean, private, and comfortable. Seems like everyone complied with 'camp shower' guidelines as I had good water pressure and hot water for my short but satisfying shower."
Spacious sites: Many parks offer ample room between camping spots. "The sites are spread out and offer a lot of privacy," reports a visitor at Merrill Campground, with another adding, "The campground is very well maintained and the sites are exceptionally large."
Natural setting: Pine trees and nearby water features create a peaceful atmosphere. A camper at Honey Lake Campground describes it as "a serene little campground off 395. You can hear a bit of traffic, but the trees swaying in the wind muffled it pretty well! It has a great view of the lake."
What you should know
Seasonal operations: Most campgrounds in the area close during winter months. Golden Coach RV Park operates from May 1 to October 15, while Clio's Rivers Edge RV Park runs from April 15 to October 31.
Variable amenities: Facilities differ significantly between parks. "The bathroom/shower was closed and I wish there had been easier access to the river but other than that it was a great place to stay," mentions a Little Bear RV Park visitor.
Limited activities at some locations: Some parks have fewer recreational options. A visitor at Days End RV Park noted, "The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating is that there is nothing around to do. General store across the street with gas and diesel, some food and drink."
Evening facility access: Some parks restrict bathroom access overnight. A Susanville RV Park camper mentioned, "The one thing that was bothersome was they lock the showers and bathrooms from 7pm to 7am."
Tips for camping with families
Kid-friendly campgrounds: Some parks offer dedicated play areas and activities. At Clio's Rivers Edge RV Park, a visitor observed, "Kid friendly with activities and play areas. Pet park for off leash play! Clean and friendly staff!"
Multi-generational camping: Several campgrounds welcome families of all ages. A camper at Days End RV Park mentioned, "Family owned business seems to be ran by 3 generations. I (think) met the grandson riding the golf cart about to start his chores."
Biking opportunities: Paved paths provide safe riding for children. "The kids scootered and rode bikes along the camp roads, and drivers were cautious and patient," notes a visitor at Movin' West RV Park, while another camper at Eagle Lake mentioned, "There is a total of 6 miles of paved bike path. We loved it!"
Tips from RVers
Site selection strategy: Research specific spots for shade and space. "Most sites had majestic trees and paved. The rest rooms well cleaned with soap," says a camper at Merrill Campground.
Proximity considerations: Some RV parks position sites close together. A visitor to Clio's River Edge RV Park observed, "Every space is so close to each other, you have next to you their services and it's impossible to access your storage without bothering your neighbors."
Access for larger vehicles: Parks vary in their ability to accommodate big rigs. At Days End RV Park, a camper appreciated the "spotless RV site" noting "Only con would be limited shade as the trees are still growing and the slight elevation of the sewage connection."
Seasonal temperature planning: The region experiences significant temperature changes. "It was hot! Most sites had majestic trees and paved," reported an Eagle Lake visitor regarding their site without shade coverage.
