Forest Springs RV set up, on site

WE ONLY HOST  ONE  GROUP AT A TIME !      DOGS  WELCOME  OFF  LEASH !  

We  offer our RV from $140, guest's RV from $115,  Guesthouse from $140, and tent camping from $115. See rates below.       

FOREST SPRINGS: 55 scenic miles northeast of Redding in far northern California, surrounded by Shasta National Forest, near lakes and hot springs, with many shady hiking trails along our creeks in the lush and varied forest and to our small lake.  

We are about 4 hours from Sacramento,  4 1/2 hours from Berkeley, 5 hours from San Francisco or Santa Rosa, 3 1/2 hours from Medford, and 4 hours from Reno.  

The splash pool is filled from June 15 to Sept 15 and is drained, cleaned and refilled between guest groups.  For a large group, a 2nd splash pool is also filled.  They are sun-warmed and a great spot to relax in the afternoon with views across the meadows to the mountains beyond.  

Awesome, shady trails through our lush forest lead along creeks and into the surrounding National Forest.  Our little Discovery Lake sports a dock with bench and a rowboat (in season).  Fishing for the trout is catch & release.

Off the property but nearby are hot springs, swimming holes, 2 larger public lakes for boating and fishing, and impressive waterfalls. We are 1 1/2 hours by car from Mt. Shasta or Mt. Lassen National Park.

Open April 1 to Autumn  

From the pavement, we are at the end of a 1 1/2 mile decent gravel road, no 4-wheel drive needed unless towing.  With mostly gently rolling or flat terrain and 2 mild hills, our elevation is about 2500' and the temps cooler than in the valley.

PETS:  Dogs are welcome off leash!  They enjoy romping in our creek and lake as well as in the mowed part of the meadow and on the trails.  Pet fee. 

Should guests want to visit sites off-property where dogs can't, such as the hot springs, Burney Falls and Lake Britton, we offer a huge (100' x 50') secure fenced pen with shade trees.  Of course well-behaved dogs can also stay in the guesthouse if it has been rented.  

RATES   

If our rates seem high, it is because we only host one  group at a time, for your peace and privacy. 

Besides the natural beauty, everyone notices the QUIET.  But you can bring your rock band.  Amazing stars, too!

Forest Springs RV (sleeps 3) (includes use of bathhouse): an older 25' long "5th wheel" with a comfortable memory-foam queen bed and a twin bed sofa is situated in a shaded private area overlooking the forest. Towels and bedding provided. The RV has flush toilet, sinks, hot shower, lights, fans or heater in season.  Less than 3 minutes walk to the bathhouse for another flush toilet, sinks and hot shower. The kitchenette has a microwave, 2-burner electric hot plate, cookware and dishes, etc.  for 4 people. The small refrigerator is outside by the picnic table, under the roof-over that surrounds the RV.  There are fans (no A/C) but the warmest nights usually cool down to 60 degrees.
