About Manzanita Lake Camping Cabins (CA)

Situated near the northwest entrance to the park, the rustic Manzanita Lake Camping Cabins offer convenience and comfort in the scenic setting of Lassen Volcanic National Park. These 20 cabins are the first new accommodations in Lassen Volcanic National Park since 1972, and are available in three models: 2 Room, 1 Room, and Bunkhouse. They are within walking distance of Manzanita Lake, a popular catch & release fishing and family destination, and offer a view of 10,457-foot Lassen Peak, the largest volcano in the park. The cabins are located one mile south of the park entrance, perched at an elevation of 5.9 ft and adjacent to a 179-site campground. The Loomis Museum, Loomis Ranger Station and popular hiking trails are nearby. Educational programs are presented at the museum and amphitheater within the campground.    Groceries, supplies, gifts, gasoline, laundromat and hot showers are located at the nearby Manzanita Lake Camper Store. Our cafe features a variety of delicious and healthy items including salads, fresh fruits, hot or cold sandwiches, espresso drinks and soft-serve ice cream. Kayak and paddle board rentals are also available on a first come, first serve basis at the Camper Store.  A map of our cabins can be viewed under additional information or on our website, www.lassenlodging.com.  Follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ManzanitaLake.

Bring a mattress pad or two.
Showers and Laundry are unavailable in the park.

The cabins are very basic. Cabin 15 has a porch with two chairs and a little table, inside a table and chairs and a bed. Outside a fire pit, picnic table and bear box.

If you like firm beds that are harder than the ground, it's perfect. The pilot light on the heater causes the room to heat up overnight. Glad it was a beautiful weekend and the whole park was open.

Great spot, cabins were clean and well set up. Check in super easy and right. Short walk to lake and near-by facilities. Excellent spot to finish up after a day in the Park.

Always a great location for family stay but showers were down and we were not given notification until we arrived. Also, blinds and screens in cabins were pretty worn out. Time to improve general maintenance due to wear and tear.

Great clean cabin! Screens/doors sealed tightly and no bugs got in (must have been fixed since a previous review). The fire pit and picnic bench are close to another cabin so it's not the most private site. Overall we loved it, definitely an upgrade from tent camping!

FYI as of June 2024 shower and laundry facilities at the campground are closed.

Great time at the Manzanita Camping Cabins as usual. Many of the hikes around the area were accessible. Chaos Crags was a good moderate hike and there was water in the lake. Spent some time down in Old Station also. Great community of 51 people and finally got to to experience Subway cave. Next year it will be the Spatter Cone Nature Trail.
