Bushytail

After 3 yrs. campground has a Camp Host again. Camp Host thinks a leaf blower is needed to clean the sites and road, maybe a broom would be better. Also Camp Host thinks the shower is their personal space. Not the quiet campground it used to be.

This is the perfect campsite for a group. It’s easy to get to the restroom, there’s plenty of space to really spread out, and ample space in the bear lockers. We actually took two side-by-side spaces for our large group. I will say it was more fun to drive to a Local swimming hole, and also drive down to the river resort. This is not a place you want to just hang out at in terms of water activities. The lake is super low and you can’t really do anything there unless you drive onto the hot dirt. That said the special swimming hole / resort areas were a 5-10 min drive away so no big deal. There’s no one else around you, so it’s super quiet at night.

The campground is quite and sites are well spread out. The site is spacious (designed for RV drive through) and nicely shield by trees. No hot water for the shower at the time but a cold shower in a hot day was nice. Weaverville is 30 min away for supplies, firewood, Trinity County Brewing Co and Joss House State Historic Park. Of course ton of hiking in the nearby Trinity Alps and fishing in the lakes.

The group camp site was awesome. Power and water for two of the 4 sites. The group dining area was amazing. The campfire pit was also super well designed and placed. The campground stated it had hot showers available. This was not the case and I was not informed prior. Kind of a buzz kill.

When we arrived the campground appeared to be closed, there was no camp host, which we counted on to buy firewood ("buy it where you burn it," I've been told). There was no hot water in the showers. The site (#6) was on a hillside that had such a slope that only one medium sized tent could be set up. The fire pit was on a concrete slab in the corner and positioned in such a way that only 1 or 2 camp chairs could be placed around it because of the campsite slope, other chairs were awkwardly placed. Just a poorly designed campsite in general. It should have also been clear in the campground/site description that there was no cell signal. (And not exactly related to the campground but still relevant in my mind, Trinity Lake was appalling low, like at least 50 feet so there was zero ability to really enjoy lakeside recreation.) I am certain I would not come back to this area.

Main trash dumpster was full to the brim with trash. We were at campsite #8 for four days. It was never emptied. The hot water for the public showers was not working. Campground 8 does not have a bear box. Trash around campsite should be removed, debris should at least be blown off thr paved area, fire pits cleaned and the camp site should be clean and usable for arriving campers.

No hot water for shower 6/1/23. But who cares the campground is beautiful!

One of the BEST Campgrounds in Northern California.

Camp Sites are pretty spread out. Restrooms are clean with flushable toilets and running water. You will also have access to hot showers for a small $5 fee (carry exact change). All campsites have a fire pit and a good sized bear proof locker. There is a general store on the water in the Marina (5mins away). Drive up to boat docking station and ask for directions. Highly Recommend this campsite.

Clean and well maintained site with shower, among the best we've been visited. Quite and peaceful throughout our stay. Tom is an accommodating host and always there to help. He rescued and saved our cat when she jumped and stuck 50 feet above on a pine tree. We can not thank enough of him.
