We loved this campground! Having the store right in the campground was super helpful, as were the showers! Lots to do right from the campground, which was great! Having no cell service in the campground is actually a plus for me, but it was easy to drive about 5 minutes up the road to get service when we absolutely needed to.

This spot is beautiful, but the campfire ring is so close to spot 23 you might as well be sharing the same one. No privacy at this particular spot but still a beautiful campground.

Great spot with tree lines in between the neighboring sites. Had some deer come through the first night. Nice and private!

I loved our first campsite loop C site 26. Lots of room. Loop A was filled with a lot of RVs and a lot of noise. I highly recommend the hike around the lake!!!

We enjoyed Lassen NP and camping at Manzanita Lake it is a beautiful place! Our camp site was great lots of trees for shade and a large bear locker that we could store our cooler and supplies in. The bathroom situation was interesting lights only seemed to go on in the morning, so they were off at night?! So bring a lantern! Bring cash despite it being a credit card only park, gas station at the camp store only takes cash for gas (or fill up before entering the park), wood was pricey at the camp store $15 a bundle (4 logs).

- 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.
