Vey nice quaint spot
Just me and one friend stayed overnight, very nice area, creek right next to spots. A little bit of a walk to the bathroom though.

Quiet Little Campground
We were able to arrive at 9pm and still get a spot through recreation.gov. No running water. There were a lot of branches on the ground for us to be able to build a fire. Right next to a creek/river so great water sounds all night. Don’t think we could have fit more than 1 car to park there.

Nice campsite, very close to Redding for supplies and access, but still qui
This campsite was very nice and clean. Each spot was decent. #6, 8, and 9 probably your best bets if they are open. 4 and 5 are right next to the entrance. There's a small narrow dirt road, but easily doable even in a loaded down sedan. You can only buy the pass online so make sure you get it ahead…
