Our campsite was clean and very spacious. The bathrooms were also clean and well-stocked. My only suggestion is that you switch to 2-ply toilet paper. One must pull off lots of the thin stuff that you currently provide in order to get clean and dry.
We explored throughout the park while there. Two gems nearby to check out are the McArthur-Burney Falls and the Subway Cave. We had a wonderful time at Lassen.

Great place to stay and would come back. The Host was mot very informative and did not tell us the loop we were in was closed the next day for the winter. We had to move our camp the next morning to another loop.

Very pretty and heavily forested campground. Facilities in poor conditions, even by National Park standards.
Many sites RV friendly, even for trailers up to 30 feet

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
