"The beach is sectioned off for social distancing. The camp sites are in the tall pine trees just steps away from the lake. I come back every year! Swimming in the lake is great!"
"I have been to many lakes in northern California but nothing as perfect as this place. I accidentally booked a spot here at Siskiyou but meant to go to lake Shasta and boy was luck on my side!!!"
$45 - $69 / night
"The RV Campground is beautiful and surrounded by trees and a creek that flows behind the main RV parking area. Check in is easy. We booked ⁷online and the RV was ready for us."
"We stayed here twice on a trip from central California to Washington. All of the staff was friendly and super helpful. The campsite was very clean and quiet. Beautiful scenery and easy to get to."
"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."

"From our campsite we were able to walk to the trailhead and do the crags trail all the way to the top of the rocks. Would highly recommend this campground!"
"Oldest camping area is right next to I-5 (which was not there when the campground was built!). But there are newer camping sites farther away from I-5."
"Great walk with the dog. Little town of McCloud is cute!"
"We enjoyed the pizza and beer at the little micro-brewery at the entrance to the park. They are no longer brewing their own beer and they hope to sell the place soon. Pizza was excellent."
"Not far from McCloud and Weed, and easy access to Medicine Lake and other recreation areas are nearby."
"Beautiful area, not far from McCloud."
$15 - $30 / night
"Super dog friendly and great river to fish from. Mccloud is about 10-15mins from the camp ground with a store and local brewery. Fowlers is a great camp spot for all trail heads either north or south."
"Its away from the main road so no car noise. Paved road. No hookups but sites are big enough for med-large RVs."
"This is a great little campground located right near a beautiful lake and some great hiking."
"Years ago you could camp right on the lake in primitive walk in spots, now that is not allowed. "
$10 / night
"The surrounding area is beautiful, and the town is nearby."

Deer wander through the campground and sometimes visit the tents."

"I stayed at this campsite the night before my group and I climbed up to Helen Lake to setup basecamp. I got to the trailhead around 3:30 and hung out around the area."
"ALSO, for any 4WD lovers, we got some good wheeling in too around here!"
GuideThere are pull offs along the road that you could do a quick overnight
ScoutWe stayed on a weekday night. The park is small, but the location off I-5 and Hwy 97 is extremely convenient. Our packet was waiting for us when we arrived, our pull through site was level and the owners were very nice. The park is perfect for a short stay and we will make this a regular stop on our route.
TravelerI didn’t want to ruin the rating but it’s somewhat hard to find down a dirt path. Would recommend for 4 wheel drive only
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
ScoutAbout 15 min off the I-5 and climbing most of the way. High and dry. Great view of Shasta Mtn. 8 campers here in mid May. All 2 wheel low clearance accessible. 8 or more still available for higher clearance vehicle. T-Mobile reception good.
ScoutPaying for sites could be better, and I think it's unfair that year after year the same people get the good spots like waterfront areas.
TravelerBreath taking view of the lake
TravelerLove connection to nature and when you camp here in may you will experience the new babies of the season I got to see baby gosling and many different type of birds and perfect place for fishing or gold panning
TravelerThis is a great campground, and the locals will tell you all about the history of the railroad and the pushers for the trains to climb mount Shasta. It is in the process of changing to Jubilee Railroad Wilderness Lodge& Campground over the couple of years.
It is near the I5 - so there is some road noise. The sites are reasonably spacious - and some are pull through. There is no dump station but you can use one of the full sites. There is a small store in the campground too.
