Lake Resort Dinner

Golfing near by at Almanor West

The lake, the nearby, free, public boat launch, and the Plumas Pines marina, restaurant and resort are the big attractions of the Lake Almanor Campground. Although the huge 2021 Dixie fire burned a lot of the forest nearby, the Almanor South campground, the Plumas Pines resort and the city of Chester were not directly affected. We had a great time and rented jet ski's at the marina which also rents ski boats, pontoon boats, kayaks etc. The camp host was very friendly and helpful.

Camp Host was so helpful! He went well beyond normal service to make sure everyone was a Happy Camper! Site and Lake were so beautiful and bike trail that runs right through the camp was fantastic!

We stayed for 4 nights and site #5 in a class B Sprinter. It was an excellent site, paved, flat and quiet, right across from the restroom. There was quite a bit of shade and the table was about 50 ft away from the parking site. The campground is very nice overall with sites spaced a good distance apart. There is a lot to do in the area as far as biking and hiking goes. Mt Lassen National Park was basically closed due to heavy snow pack. We had been there a number of times and it's a gem, off the beaten path. There is an incredible paved bike trail all along the Lake about 15 mi long accessible from the campground. There are a few hills, easily manageable, and it's also through the forest. There is a very good restaurant about 1 mi away, Plumas Pines, I believe is the name. The Lake was ¼ mile walk from the camp. Steve, the host was exceptional. He was helpful and willing to help with what ever you need. I would return to this campground.

Almanor campground south site#12. Large site with good shade for tent. New metal picnic table. Drinking water and restroom near by. 40 ft. back in driveway sufficient for truck and boat.

Campground clean and quiet. Camp host Steve very helpful and friendly

Loved it

No physical address listed and WRONG directions given by Recreation.gov. Pictures for camp site weren't actual site, no water access. False advertising. Will never use again

Camp host was welcoming, helpful and friendly. Setting was nice with huge trees. No signs of the Dixie Fire damage from this camp site.

Great place. Looks like they're recovering slowly but surely from the fires last year. Still, it's sad and sobering to see so much fire damage. However it's still a beautiful area nonetheless!
