The location of the campsite was good but felt a little to cramp as each campsite was too close to each other. Camping during the off season before any holidays was a great choice as there weren't a lot of people in the campsite. I will most likely return to Lassen Volcanic National Park however will try different campsites to see what each campsite will provide. The campsite was super clean and well maintained. Will definitely return to the campsite.

We appreciated the pull through spot and the immaculate bathrooms. Cinder Cone was an adventurous and invigorating experience. We highly recommend it.

Close walk to the beach was great! If we had stayed longer we would have taken advantage of the many bike trails near town.

repeat camper here … no camp host this year. Toilets fouled early on with busy weekend.
i wish there was a better system for reservations… seems like several people book sites and never show up… not considerate of others.
I think its time for all national parks to have electrical plug-ins for EV and for avoiding having to run generators… i have solar and batteries however most campers dont… the noise and pollution of generators should be addressed.
had a great time… we enjoy the ranger talks and the park is beautiful!

Nice campground. Sites are close but that's not too bad. The lake is great for swimming, if you do a Backcountry like we did the lake is perfect to get back after being away and just jumping in.
