Rocky Point Dispersed Camping

This free dispersed camping area provides drive-in access to a large, open space near Eagle Lake with basic toilet facilities. The barren terrain works better for RVs and trailers than tents, though tent camping remains possible with some effort. Campers gain lake views from their sites while maintaining good distance from nearby roads and residential areas.

The location sits close to Rocky Point East, offering easy highway access without complete seclusion. Cell service reaches the area, and campfires are permitted. The setup accommodates big rigs and welcomes pets, making it a practical overnight stop for those exploring the region or seeking places to camp around Susanville.

Dispersed car camping

Super easy and simple to get to. Its not super secluded and your by the highway but its a nice little spot with a view of the lake.

Suitable but barren

There's signs acknowledging it's free camping. Large barren area with a toilet near the lake. Not great for a tent but can make it work. Good distance away from roads and houses. Lake view.
