Summit Lake North is praised for its great location within Lassen National Park, offering scenic views, easy access to hiking trails, and a beautiful lake for swimming. The campground is well-maintained with clean bathrooms and a peaceful atmosphere, making it a favorite for visitors seeking a relaxing camping experience. However, some sites are closely spaced and lack shade, which may affect privacy and comfort.

Campground was nice, bathrooms were clean. Campsite A07 is sloped. We slept with our heads at the top of the slope and every time you roll over, you slide down the slope a bit and subsequently off the sleeping mat. We have a 6 person tent which is bigger than the average dome tent. It may be easier to manage in a smaller tent.

Really nice, really clean campground with large sites. Doesn't feel crowded in any way. Some burned trees from the 2021 Dixie fire just outside of the campgrounds.
Site A11 was not as indicated on reservation.gov. It shares a pad with A10 but it's large enough not to be an issue.
Hike around the lake is really nice but the boardwalk damaged by fire in a couple of spots. Easy fix.

Campsite was well maintained and bathrooms were clean! We stayed at loop b 25 which was on the smaller side of campgrounds and we were really close to our neighbors. The site next to us is for RV’s so your view of the lake will be blocked if they are parked there. Other than that, nice quiet area!
