"There are numerous spaces and you can really get far away from people if you'd like to- as the bulk of them stay nearest the water. "
"All the spots were pretty big, beautiful forest and some nice trails nearby. About a 30 minute drive from the bunny flat trail at mount shasta."
"Great black berry picking through out the campsite and a short walk to Mount Shasta city down town area.
It fills up fast so it's best to make reservations."
"Pool, game room, shuffle board, basketball court and off leash dog park. Lots of trees in the sites great for hammocking (in the tent sites). I would definitely stay here again."
$45 - $69 / night

"A quaint little old campground tucked into the forests of Siskiyou County, with the most spectacular views of Mount Shasta from its chaparral covered hilltop, we felt like we had found a hidden gem."
"The campground is fun, has some outdoor games, a small dog park, and a community fire pit. And visiting the goats and chickens was definitely a bonus!"
$25 / night
"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!"

Deer wander through the campground and sometimes visit the tents."
"Well positioned (if you have wheels, anyway) for a drive up Shasta to about 7800' on the Everitt Highway - [https://hikemtshasta.com/tag/everitt-memorial-highway/. ](https://hikemtshasta.com/tag/everitt-memorial-highway"

GuideI’ve always been star struck with Mount Shasta. I never saw the beauty of the surroundings. McArthur Park is an easy stop and a fun walk. Bring a jacket. You’llget wet walking that path!
ScoutIf you don't mind quite a few neighbors, this campground is awesome. There are numerous spaces and you can really get far away from people if you'd like to- as the bulk of them stay nearest the water. There are bathrooms, flush toilets, showers, a café, ice cream shop, and kayak/paddleboard/paddleboat rentals at the lake- not to mention a huge inflatable play area. The campground is large and spacious- enshrouded by gorgeous mixed conifers and tons of wildflowers- all with a view of Mount Shasta and lake access. What could be better for a large campground really? Only 4 miles outside of Mount shasta City. Beautiful!
GuideAll the spots were pretty big, beautiful forest and some nice trails nearby. About a 30 minute drive from the bunny flat trail at mount shasta. There aren’t Many toiletbuildings so you have to walk further and it’s pretty busy at times.
GuideHow fantastic the whole Mount Shasta region is at this time of year. No mosquitoes! The Lake was crowded this week but the water was clean and great for swimming. Lake Siskiyou is a great base camp for exploring Lee Shasta wilderness.
Tip. stock up on supplies at Ray's in mount shasta city. The camp ground store is predictably expensive
TravelerAfter a few days of boondocking our way from San Diego to the Pacific Northwest we needed a place with hookups. We were pleased with the ease of getting to our spot. We had requested a pull-through and at first I was a little disappointed to find that our spot was right next to the entry road. However, the traffic was minimal and it turned out to be a very peaceful evening and night. The location has easy access to groceries and fuel with walkable access to a couple of fast food restaurants. The area is obviously suffering some latent economic effects from COVID based on the closed Quality Inn motel next door, but it hasn't been turned into an eyesore. I would consider this a great stopping point for anyone needing a restful night while passing through Northern California, or for anyone planning to enjoy the recreation opportunities in the Mount Shasta area.
GuideAs of May 31st there isn’t access to some areas as there is snow blocking the way, some areas are wet from the snow that has already melted. The toilets up at Castle Lake are still covered in snow and inaccessible. Pack in pack out. Other than that nice peaceful area, you can hear the river running, and has a nice view of Mount Shasta.
GuideI generally don't like KOA campgrounds because they feel like small cities. This KOA is different in that even though it has all the amenities and comforts of home it still is removed enough from the hussle and bussles of the city.
Nice size campsites and well maintained facilities.
Great black berry picking through out the campsite and a short walk to Mount Shasta city down town area.
It fills up fast so it's best to make reservations.
ScoutThis is an enourmous campground on Lake Siskiyou with every conceivable amenity, including a lakeside water park for the kids. If you are an RVer and/or traveling with kids, this is an awesome place. Lake Siskiyou is gorgeous and with its 5 mpg boat speed limit, is incredible for swimming, paddling, and fishing. Other amenities include a dirt bicycling trail around the lake, a store, restaurant, laundromat, boat launch, corded off swim area with sandy beach, and boat rentals. This is definitely not where I would go to pitch a tent, unless family was visiting with kids in tow, but if you enjoy a one stop campground/resort, this is the place. Ten minutes to golf, tennis, world class hiking and bicycling, and the town of Mount Shasta.
