Best Cabin Camping near Yermo, CA

Several furnished cabin options can be found near Yermo, California, ranging from basic setups to more comfortable accommodations. Calico Ghost Town Regional Park offers bunkhouse cabins equipped with twin-size bunk beds and futon-style sofas that convert to queen beds. These cabins feature air conditioning and heating systems for year-round comfort. "We stayed in one of the bunkhouse cabins. It had 2 sets of bunk beds and a sofa that was about the size of a queen. Small kitchen was perfect for our needs," notes Jon L., a recent visitor. The Barstow-Calico KOA also provides cabin rentals with varying amenities. Most cabins in the area utilize shared bathroom facilities, with guests accessing centrally located shower buildings and restrooms.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Calico Ghost Town's cabins are particularly popular for families seeking a unique overnight experience near the historic mining attraction. Most pet-friendly cabins require advance notification and may charge additional fees. Reservations are strongly recommended, especially during peak seasons from spring through fall when desert temperatures are more moderate. "Super windy but we opted to stay in one of the small cabins. It was nice and clean," reports Cantrell C. about their Calico cabin experience. The KOA cabin camping options typically include more amenities than the regional park accommodations, with some featuring private patios and more substantial furnishings.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary significantly between properties, with some offering small kitchenettes while others provide only basic amenities. Calico Ghost Town cabins include small kitchens with limited cooking equipment, making them suitable for simple meal preparation. The Barstow-Calico KOA has a well-stocked camp store for forgotten essentials. Visitors staying in more rustic cabins should plan to bring cooking equipment suitable for outdoor preparation, as many cabins have exterior picnic tables and fire rings rather than indoor cooking facilities. Grocery options are limited in immediate proximity to Yermo, with most substantial shopping available in Barstow, approximately 10 miles away.

    Calico Ghost Town

    Good times!!

    This campground in Barstow has many things to do. Campground has full hookups first off. Next, they have a separate campground area for OHV campers and vehicles. Plenty of trails and some famous rock climbing just behind the hill. The ghost town is awesome to check out, kids love it. Pan for silver, train rides and explore the mines. Even grab a bite to eat with a beer at the saloon. Gets hot in the summer but fall and winter good times to go. This place even has cabin rentals too.

    Calico Ghost Town

    So much fun

    We stayed here with family who had an RV. At the time, we didn’t so we rented one of the cabins. They have bunks, a bed AC and heat and that’s it. Lol. You have to use the public restrooms and showers. It was raining and super cold when we stayed here but one of the days it cleared up and we walked to Calico ghost town. We had the best time exploring, shopping, eating at the restaurant, panning for gold, touring the mine. Super fun. We also enjoyed some off roading. Bathrooms were clean. Showers are run by quarters and were hot although the windows high above don’t close so the cold air was constantly blowing in. It made for an adventure that my daughter and I will remember for many years. Lol. I’d stay here again. It was fun.

    North Shore Campground - Lake Almanor

    Beautiful Camping near Lassen Volcanic National Park

    We reserved and camped at this beautiful campground back in July of 2018. It was a great experience. We pulled a 27' Travel Trailer from Livermore, CA and picked out the perfect site #94. It was the furthest RV site north of the campground and we had power, water and sewage. It was a lake front campsite so we had a nice view of the lake right in our "front yard" :-) We had a picnic table and a fire pit for our use.
    The fishing was awesome, but I suggest fishing in the mornings before the afternoon winds come in as the weather cools down. We had our kayaks and it is a beautiful lake to kayak. But when it gets windy, know your limits :-)
    The campground is close to the Lassen Volcanic National Park. We took a drive there for a visit and it was spectacular. 
    The campground also has a great store there. It has all the camping necessities. If you are into hiking and biking, this campground has the accommodations for that activity. It also has a kid's park.  They also have cabins if you do not want to use a tent or RV.

    Calico Ghost Town

    Cabin at Calico

    We arrived well after dark and the security folks helped us get into our cabin. Very nice staff. We stayed in one of the bunkhouse cabins. It had 2 sets of bunk beds (twin size) and a sofa (futon style) that was about the size of a queen. We had 2 cars and 2 trailers. Plenty of parking and I felt comfortable with our gear being safe outside. Small kitchen was perfect for our needs. We would recommend the cabin and we will definitely visit again to visit the ghost town.

    Calico Ghost Town

    Short and windy trip

    Had a great time exploring the ghost town with my kids. I recommend doing the tour of the mine for a small fee. A lot was still shut down due to the pandemic. Super windy but we opted to stay in one of the small cabins. It was nice and clean. Bathrooms were also clean and well-maintained. It was an overall good, one-night stay vacation!

    North Shore Campground - Lake Almanor

    North Shore (CA) San Bernadino NF - FS. Nice, but crowded

    This is a nice site with lots of shade. There is a lovely hiking trail at the far end of the site. There is water, flush toilets, fire pits, and picnic tables. It is a short walk to Lake Arrowhead. This is a dog friendly site. Sadly the sites are small with no space between the sites. The noise restrictions after 10pm are not enforced so bring ear plugs. Expect a lot of people walking through your site.

    Calico Ghost Town

    Ghost town camping

    I had always wanted to visit a ghost town so when this came up in our travel path, we had to stop for a night. Located in Yermo, CA, this campground offers over 250 sites although we were about one of 5 campers there on our visit which made it even more ghostly. It is a desert like area with few trees. There was a bathroom with showers nearby, fire ring and hook-ups. Also lots of steep canyon walls and abandoned mine shafts. Since there were hardly any others there, we picked our spot and set up for the evening. I kept wondering when a coyote or some other wild animal was going to show up. The next morning, we wandered into the Ghost Town for some entertainment. We took pictures of the bottle house, mercantile, and many other buildings. There was a shooting show going on that was really cool and the boys enjoyed ice cream on a hot day. I loved the ghost town themed park and would like to visit again one day and explore when we have more time.
