Best Cabin Camping near West Point, CA
Calaveras Big Trees State Park offers four rustic cabins near West Point, though they're located across the highway from the main park. These cabins provide basic accommodations with ceiling fans but no air conditioning, television, or bedding. Each cabin features a king-sized bed at Buffalo Hill, while North Grove Campground cabins include bunk beds. Most cabins contain standard amenities such as picnic tables, fire rings, and bear-proof food storage. Bathroom facilities vary by location, with some offering private restrooms and others providing communal facilities. "The cabins were full of rustic charm, very cozy, and in a great location," noted one visitor who stayed at a lakeside cabin.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Gold Country Campground Resort and 49er Village RV Resort provide more developed cabin options with electricity and indoor plumbing. Lake Amador Resort offers waterfront cabins with convenient boat access. Most cabins require advance reservations, especially during summer months when availability becomes limited. Pet policies vary significantly between properties, with some welcoming dogs and others prohibiting pets entirely. According to reviews, "The campground has dorms for families/groups (a building with bunk beds and a bathroom) and tent and full-hookup RV sites."
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. As one reviewer noted, "No bedding or towels. You bring your own." Kitchen facilities range from simple fire rings with grills to small refrigerators and microwaves in more developed units. Buffalo Hill cabins feature small refrigerators but limited cooking space. On-site camp stores at locations like Gold Country Campground Resort and Lake Amador Resort provide basic provisions, firewood, and ice. Visitors planning extended stays should bring additional coolers, as refrigerator space is typically minimal. Grocery options are limited in the immediate area, so stocking up before arrival is recommended.
