The staff at the camper store were amazing! They are so helpful and friendly.
I find the cabins and out houses in great condition. The cabin floor was very dusty but I guess that’s hard to avoid.
Overall we have a lovely stay.
Thank you for maintaining the park!

Beautiful place, nice and cosy little cabins, spaced apart so that you have enough privacy. There is a cute shop where you can get your morning coffee and anything else you might have forgotten to bring, nice gifts, picnic tables around; clean bathrooms, showers. Plenty of trails to explore, watching the sun rise over Manzanita Lake is just breathtaking. Lassen Volcanic Park is a truly amazing place, with so many beautiful places to see! We swam in Lake Helens and Summit Lake, hiked a few trails, enjoyed icecream at Kohm Yah-mah-nee Visitor Centre with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains... We hope to be back to explore some more!

This was our second time staying at the Manzanita cabins. Highly recommend! The cabins are so cozy, clean, and comforting. The area is so quiet and private with easy access to Manzanita Lake. Would love to return this year if I can.
