Best Tent Camping near Litchfield, CA

Absolutely delightful campground with flush toilets and potable water. Super close access to the water. Would be a perfect spot for tent camping if there weren’t so many trailers everywhere.

So beautiful! The lake is nestled in the mountains. The scenery, fishing and water sports are superb! There are ample campgrounds with spots from tent camping to RV camping. They also have group camping right on the water! If you love mountain lakes, don’t miss this one... and book early!

Lake cove is always a good choice. Clean bathrooms and laundry facility on site. There are tent sites, even sites with and without hookups, cabins, and a trailer to rent. They also have a volleyball court, horse shoes, and arcade available.

I drove way to long and when this campground showed up I was so relieved I would have stopped no matter what but to find out it’s charming clean and the manager a dear showers laundry and lots of space. The rv spaces look out over the lake tent camping in the back but you still have lake views

So the desert is the desert, finding a lake there is pretty special. Yes, it looks barren, but it attracts tons of birds and the water sports and fishing are fun. Sunsets are out of this world. This campground is a much nicer experience than the RV park as long as you are prepared to car/tent camp. Bring the boat/water toys.

This is one of several campground at Eagle Lake. The unique aspect of Aspen is it is set aside for Tent camping only. No RVs or cabovers are allowed here. It is set in shady pines just like the other campgrounds at the lake. All the usual amenities are here too. Picnic tables fire pits and nice bathrooms. A camp host is present. The campground sits near the water. Close by and to the east is the trail head for the beautiful Osprey Overlook trail. Overall a nice campground for the back to basics Tent camper.

This is a great spot for camping. There are very nice and large spots for both Camper and Tent camping. The bathrooms and showers are clean and exactly what you would expect from a county park. There are lots of tall trees for shade during the day, and the trees separated the spots enough that groups can be separate or together. The road isn’t too close, and there isn’t much traffic after 9:00 or so anyways.

There is also a water access to go easing and a few deep spots for swimming.

There are also 3 Poké stops and a gym for Pokémon Go players.

Our annual camping trip to Eagle Lake at the Merrill Campground in Lassen National Forest started as a family trip for a good friend about three generations ago. Ourselves and other friends have since tagged along for the last 6-8 years (some longer). We now routinely book 6 or more campsites, most with power for trailer hook ups though a couple of us still tent camp. Half the group are avid fisherman and go out every morning. The trout fishing is world class and makes for an out-of-this-world fish fry! This is one of the most pristine and quiet campgrounds we visit. The camp hosts and other campers are always extremely friendly and respectful. The facilities are clean and well maintained, the marina is well stocked (both fishing and daily food/drink essentials). We look forward to coming year after year.

Beautiful Taylorsville is always a good place to set up my tent. Many spots, some with hook ups! Lots of trees and good burgers at the local market!

Verry quite and relaxing, clean bathrooms and wifi (if your into that sort of thing).Mostly RV campers. my wife and I were in a tent while everyone else was in an RV.

There's signs acknowledging it's free camping. Large barren area with a toilet near the lake. Not great for a tent but can make it work. Good distance away from roads and houses. Lake view.

Definitely a quiet campground. Only one other person was there. Nice creek runs by it. Two vault toilets, one on each side of the loop. Spacious campsites but would probably be challenging for larger tents. No pavement up here so there is only dirt to park on.

This campground is well organized, fits a lot of people but there is a good space between tents. Bathroom nearby, picnic table, fire rings. Campsites have a good size for groups. This place is great as a base while you explore the amazing surroundings of Crater Lake during the day.

Stopped by here on my way home to check it out and the place looks more like an upper class trailer park. The “host” was extremely rude and informed me that he had enough business and didn’t need anymore. There is not any places to put tents, and it was $25 to launch your boat with no where to put your trailer.

were there to camp this weekends started aug 6 we went to roam around the National Park had a great time at the end ot the day we went back to the camp ground we have a notice that their closing the park and we need to leave ASAP It is getting dark when we get back to tHe cAmp site We have 2 kids with us and it Is so frustrating moving pulling out all the tents pack and leave at dark we end up shorten the trip went back home at bay area so frustrated and so upset. They should give us a time atleast THAT THEY WILL POST THE CAMP GROUND WILL BE CLOSED DURING THE WEDKENDS.

We camped from 6/18 - 6/20, a Monday through Wednesday. There was only one other occupied campsite out of about 25 on our loop. When we came last year in early July, there were more campers but it still wasn't filled. We have a Senior Access Pass, so we paid only $10 per night instead of $20. Clean campsites with picnic tables, and fire rings with nice adjustable height cooking grates. There is firewood for sale at the campground host's. Drinking water is available, and the bathrooms are clean and have flush toilets. We were happy to have our screen tent, because there were more than a few mosquitoes. A paved trail goes along the lake for 5 miles, suitable for bicycles, strollers, and hikers. There are big fish in the lake, and there are white pelicans and bald eagles who feed on those fish. Beautiful scenery with strategically located picnic tables near the lake, and nice places to spread a blanket and take a lakeside nap.
