What Guests Are Saying

Gurnsey Creek offers neat and tidy campsites, with helpful camp hosts ensuring cleanliness. The availability of drinking water spigots near campsites is a plus, though caution is advised regarding potability. While some campers wished for better visibility through the tree canopy and preferred traditional toilets, the overall experience, especially stargazing, was enjoyable.

Campsites were cleared out pretty neatly. Very tidy and the camp host made sure other campers cleared out properly. Super awesome to have drinking water spigots near campsites. Just be observant because not all spigots were potable water. Wish the site didn't have vault toilets, but still a great trip.

Very cool spot, had a smaller group and we were able to spread out and really enjoy the space. Only wished you could see through the tree canopy a little better. The stars in lassen are next level!
