Lake Oroville was created by the Oroville Dam, which the State Department of Water Resources completed in 1967 after 5 years of construction. Lake Oroville conserves water for distribution by the State Water Project to homes, farms, and industries in the San Francisco Bay area, the San Joaquin Valley and Southern California. The Oroville facilities of the project also serve to provide flood control and smog free generation of electric power in addition to recreation. When the Lake is at its maximum elevation, it includes some 15,500 surface acres for recreation and 167 miles of shoreline. Recreation areas are spotted around the Lake and boaters can land at any point to explore the surrounding country. The lake offers a wide variety of outdoor activities including camping, picnicking, horseback riding, hiking, sail and power boating, water-skiing, fishing, swimming, boat-in camping, floating campsites and horse camping.

Lake Oroville Glamping
Great for family fun
Amazing and well equipped campsite. Everything we needed was available at the campsite. The facilities were also clean and well maintained. The lake was so close and full. Easy to find a spot to drop your stuff and get into the water. Really great time

Lake Oroville Double Glamping Tent
Lovely campsite; kind hosts
Tents are big and spacious and supplies provided are perfect. They are also extremely responsive to requests and always try to work with you. I strongly encourage you to check the weather before booking. The hosts warned us of the heat but we went anyway and it was miserable. Fans are not enough to cool off when over 100’. Also the lake has barely any water and it’s not walking distance to cool off. You’ll need to drive to the aquatics center or riverbed park to get relief. We will go again when cooler

Lake Oroville Glamping
Great Experience!
We had a good time glamping with Creative Excursions at Lake Oroville. The tent and the amenities inside were good, the bathrooms and shower were clean and well maintained. The location overall was good and felt safe. The host shared all the details prior to the camping and kept in touch during our stay there. He was quick to resolve a couple issues with the bed and fan in our tent. Overall great experience!

Lake Oroville Glamping
Good, basic Glamping Experience
The camp was very well put together,, stylish and they provided all we needed to cook, games , a fan , charging station , chairs and very comfortable beds, .it was secluded and comfortable. There was a reservation glitch as a result of a technical error and Creative excursions politely fixed it and set us up with another camp site. A few of the lanterns they provided needed new batteries but we made do with the ones that worked. Unfortunately we had loud neighbors who didn’t observe the post 10pm quiet hour rule, but that was not the fault of our hosts , so all in all I would highly recommend this group . We cooked with charcoal, wood and grill with the provided fire pit but because the grill was high it was a bit hard to control the heat, so I recommend bringing a portable grill or camo stove. The water in the lake is very low but the group and main gate recommend another family friendly recreation area about 20 minutes away. Oroville is a bit economically depressed but the downtown has some cute shops and a great ice cream parlor. It feels like a 1950s town straight out of Back to the Future

Lake Oroville Glamping
Glamping at its finest!
I made a reservation to stay with my family at Lake Oroville, but the night before our trip we received a message from the host that there was heavy smoke in that area. At that time he offered us a refund… I was so sad. I received another text message a couple mins later letting me know that they had another location at Folsom lake and asked if we wanted to go there instead. We took it and I am so glad we did! Th campsite was so awesome! I have never been glamping before so I did not know what to expect… So we packed for what we didn’t know we would have there. Turns out I didn’t need much. The tent was huge with all the amenities, flashlights, lanterns, twinkling lights, a bed, futon… they even had a small generator with a fan and outlet to plug in our phones. We had access to cool games and books and the bed was so comfy! That was just inside the tent. Outside they had set up a cover over the picnic table with outdoor table cloth, cooking utensils, pots and a pan, paper towels, paper plates, plastics, salt and pepper, and a cute flower pot for decoration on the table. They had four chairs, two which reclined, and a little red wagon for carting your things around. It was great! I have no complaints. The campsite is right on the roadway to the lake and even that wasn’t a bother! Very close to the bathrooms and clean. I will use Creative Excursions again. The best part is the host stopped by just to check on us and make sure we were satisfied with our experience. Thanks Brennon for such a great camping trip with my family! You really put the special touches on our experience.
