Really good campground. Fairly small loops which was nice. Close to lake. Bathrooms were very clean but no light so bring a headlamp.

Summit Lake North is a lovely campground. Our site was in B loop and was at the edge of the forest burn. The bathrooms were very clean, the lake was great to swim in and we appreciated the STUNNING night sky.
This campground is also conveniently located at the middle of the park.
On a Tuesday and Wednesday there appeared to be many available campsites.

The North Summit Lake campground is a terrific place to camp. The views, including Mt. Lassen majestically sitting above the lake, the stars and the lake itself. There is water and there are restrooms, which are very clean and easily accessible. It is easy to launch your water toys from the banks of the lake. We enjoyed it so much we booked again right after we returned home.

We stayed in site A07. When it rains, water funnels from both the impervious pavement to the east and the bank on the south of the site through the site and to the culvert. The only place to pitch a tent to avoid inundation is on the slope above the “ riverbed” . The site is generally not suitable for a tent.
