Beautiful campground, especially during Fall. Spectacular views of Mt Shasta and easy access to the McCloud falls Trail.

Love this campground! Great little hikes right from our site. The downside is it can be a bit confusing as what the registration process might be when arriving after making a reservation at Recreation.gov. We not see any instructions on check in board at the campground entrance, nor did our site have our name & info on it. Apparently, one just pulls into their reserved site and occupies it.

The campground is in a great location and is well maintained. Great for hiking the trails to the falls and for fishing. I am a tent camper and I found my tent pad to be pretty small and not too level. The FS had shut off the water just before I got there due to freezing temperatures. I asked the campground host about this and she was not very helpful. I had to drive to town to get bottled water. There seemed to be no "quiet hours" or at least they were not enforced. It was quite cold at night and I heard several generators running all night long so it was kind of noisy.

Nice spacious camp sites. Well maintained! Very nice location along the river with the waterfalls. It was a little crowded with a lot campers because all of this of course.

Susan is the best camp host! The site is clean and no spot is a bad location. Great place for individuals or families to be close to Gods beauty.
