"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!"

LegendWe stayed here a few years ago and the water was so low that we literally could not reach it, even after a long walk down, it just became too rocky. So we were incredibly happy this time around that the water levels were so high. It was beautiful. We scored ourselves a really cool spot right along the water on a Thursday afternoon, thinking that even if it gets busy for the weekend at least we have our nice spot secured. But. It was spring break. And just about an hour after we arrived, so did everyone else. We were practically surrounded by this huge group, with kids, loose dogs, ATVs, boats, dirt bikes, generators running, just…. Not where we want to be. We left the next morning. But I will say that the few peaceful hours we had before they all arrived were incredible. We’ll definitely go back, but only if it’s during the week and not on a school break.
It’s free to stay here in the off-season but $15/night during the season. Not really sure how the payment works since it’s dispersed camping along the lake shore but maybe it makes sense when you see it or when it's open. Pretty good cell reception here. We managed to navigate to our spot just fine in a 26ft class c.
ScoutClose to mt Shasta. Lots of other people here. Road is rough, don't recommend a super low clearance vechile
ScoutTurn off is about a mile after coordinates listed. Can’t miss the turn off. We stayed here exiting and entering CA. Exactly what we were looking for our one nighters. Lake Siskiyou is super close and was warm enough for a quick dip before hitting the road.
GuideNice area to camp with many hiking options in the area. Stayed at the campsite on the left right before crossing the bridge. Nice large site with river access right at the site. Nice friendly deer came and visited us each day. Stayed two nights. Enjoyed our stay.
RangerWanting to re-experience Forks of the Salmon road, I picked either Idlewild or Mule Bridge as a destination. Forks of Salmon is EPIC, but not for the faint of heart. From 96 there are many single-lane, no guard rails & straight drops to the river 100s feet down. Idlewild is next to road, so went up 2 miles of gravel road to Mule Bridge. No clear ‘camping’ area, but 3 fire rings. About 9 cabins, on uphill side that are family-owned. A few USFS & CCC trucks from trail workers. Beautiful North Fork of Salmon, bubbling right next to camp. VERY little traffic & people. Pit toilet clean!! NO trash service seen. NO cell service (Verizon) A great spot & worth a return IMHO.
TravelerBurney falls campground was full so 10 minutes away I found pg&e campground. It’s very small with approximately 7 sites but it’s right on lake Britton. There is even a little beach area for swimming and launching kayaks etc. I really enjoyed my night there
TravelerWe stayed one night here for a break while driving north. As someone else mentioned the turn off is a little past the coordinates given, but the road is very obvious on the right side. The first few spots seemed small/tight, but we found a more spacious one a little down with a built up fire ring. As far as I could tell we were the only ones around on a Friday night.
TravelerReally easy trail was about a mile past the coordinates on google map but it’s a very obvious dirt road. Stayed at the 5th site in which is spacious and has a few paths for small hikes.
GuideThere are pull offs along the road that you could do a quick overnight
