Cabins are very clean, functional and can sleep up to 7 in the bunks! There is no power and no water so bring a battery to recharge things. The cabins are definitely preferable to driving outside of the park each day and are close to the store and showers. The camp store has an excellent snack bar and friendly staff.

The cabins were a lot nicer than I expected. The bathrooms always were clean as well and the personal I interacted with were helpful and pleasant.

We had a great time. My only complaint is the description says a lantern is included. No lantern is included. So make sure you bring one from home. I love that the store has a barista. We were able to eat breakfast at the cabin, then grab a coffee and hit the trails.

Week prior was able to grab this 1-night spot. Made everything easy to get away and explore the stunning Lassen Volcano area- there was a queen size bed frame with not uncomfortable mattress, side tables w dim-ish plastic lanterns, rugs, close-able windows, and a handmade ice chest. The large canvas tent was on a ADA compliant deck. Pit toilets near by and flushable toilets (and sinks) a bit further but easily reachable. Store opened at 8 and had a little kitchen, some grocery foods, and souvenirs. Everyone was lovely. No electricity or plumbing in tent (obviously). There were two lovely wood lounge chairs and a metal fire pit. I will post some pictures of the tent if I can and will post on yelp too if I can’t post pics here.
-1 star only because should actually be cheaper than cabins, not more
