The recreation opportunities in the Alturas CA area are endless, fishing, hiking biking, hunting, boating and OHV. The camping site has nearly 3 acres with a view of the town of Alturas and is a great place to kick back and enjoy the atmosphere of fresh air and juniper trees. There are flat usable campsites around the property and one portion of the property is fenced for horses (bring your own water trough). The property is approximately 3 minutes from downtown Alturas with restaurants and stores. The sleepy town is a perfect place to hang out and relax at the big park in town behind the VFW Hall on Main Street, have refreshments at the two bars in town or try your luck at the Desert Rose Casino. The Wildlife Refuge has a self driving tour where you can see all kinds of birds and wildlife. Take a drive outside town to the "Ranches" to see deer, antelope, eagles and various waterfowl! Alturas is a high desert area with wonderful views of the Warner Mountains and has an enchanting feel to it. Temperatures in the summer rarely get over 100 degrees, mostly low 90's, and in the fall the cool nights make for great sleeping. Pop over Cedar Pass to Cedarville which is about 20 minutes away to check out the newly designated "Dark Sky" area. Come up and hang out in this very cool and special place, you will not want to leave!! The town of Alturas is also in the coveted X hunting zones, X3a, X3b and X2, for those of you who like to hunt. Two sites have full hook ups and the small trailer site on the above pad (see trailer picture) has electric only. During the winter, the pump house is turned off and drained due to freezing temperatures and the risk of blowing a pipe, so campers must bring their own water during November through March. Please ask if there are changes in these dates for the water hook ups.

You will stay on the grounds of the beautiful Historic Crane Ranch, originally established in 1869. There are 325 acres to explore, including wetlands, willow forests, hay fields, creek and peat bogs. Wildlife such as deer, bear, beaver, porcupine, skunk, raccoon, fox, coyote, cougar and squirrels have all been seen on the property. And a rattlesnake was seen 18 years ago. And there are many feathered friends; it’s a bird watchers paradise.
There will be a variety of primitive camp sites in addition to the existing two sites close to the headquarters that have 20 amp power via extension cord. Fresh clean water is available from several faucets around the headquarters. Most campsites are sized to allow for group camping which makes this a perfect stop for adventure bikers touring the Oregon Outback or Burners to and from Black Rock City. There is a rustic but clean open air bathroom with flush toilet and a hot shower that is available to all guests in addition to a blue portapotty. Also a community gazebo that encloses a room with netting to keep mosquitos at bay. No outside fires are permitted at the campsites, however there is a community fire ring for a warming fire, pending local fire restrictions.
Located just 6 miles south of Lakeview, Oregon, our slice of paradise is only 145 miles (2.5 hours) from Black Rock City and 8 miles from the California border. This is an active ranch environment so at times there could be haying operations going on during the summer. The ranch borders rural Highway 395 and even though it’s usually pretty quiet and the camping is away from the highway, you can still hear it at times.
The wetland environment supports so many species, but it also supports mosquitos during the spring and early summer. Be prepared for mosquitos at all sites especially when camping in the willow forest during spring and early summer.
One pet is welcome at all sites and are required to be on leash around the headquarters. However, there is ample space for your pet to run off leash. Not responsible for any interactions between your dog and the wildlife such as skunks, porcupines, coyotes or other animals,

Any Cheryl Strayed/Reese Witherspoon fans in the house? Retrace their Wild footsteps in the Fremont-Winema National Forest; part of the 2,650 mile Pacific Crest Trail falls along the forest’s western edge. And the forest certainly is “wild”: the 2.3 million acres of lush green forests and alpine meadows shelter elk, antelope, bobcats, and bears--plus intrepid adventure seekers, like yourself! In the summer, try hiking or biking along the Crane Trail, which offers incredible views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. And don’t fret when the weather turns cold and snowy; Fremont-Winema turns into a winter wonderland! Strap on ski goggles and coast downhill, or rev it up on a snowmobile at the Quartz Mountain Sno-park. Back at camp, warm up with a cup of hot cocoa--with extra marshmallows, thank you very much--and start planning for your next day in Oregon paradise.

Wild Goose Meadows RV

49mi from Cedarville · 91 sites
Nestled in the serene countryside, Wild Goose Meadows RV Park stands out as a unique destination for travelers seeking a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Formerly known as Base Camp RV Resort, this charming park is owned by Martin and Gina Picke', who have a rich history in both aviation and hospitality.
Martin, originally from Auckland, New Zealand, developed a passion for flying before moving to Southern California for college. There, he met Gina, who ran her own architectural drafting business and managed the dog training department at the local Humane Society. Together, they dreamed of escaping the fast-paced city life and immersing themselves in the tranquility of a small-town atmosphere.
Their journey into the RV lifestyle began when they traveled across various states in the western U.S., which ignited their desire to own an RV park. In 2015, they purchased a small motel with a few RV spaces in Merrill, naming it the Wild Goose Lodge Motel. After six years of hard work, they sought a new opportunity and discovered Base Camp RV Resort in Lakeview. Martin's familiarity with the area, stemming from motorcycle rides with friends, made this location particularly appealing.
The Picke's decided to retain the Wild Goose name for sentimental reasons and to honor the reputation they built

The ranch was easy to find and easy to access. All utilities were in great condition with no troubles. The host, another camper, and related friends were warm, welcoming, generous, and so much fun! Clear sunny mornings, quiet starry nights, and an alpaca and a donkey for company, it’s the perfect launch pad from which to work or explore. We’ll be back and bring more apples for the donkey.

It was so surprisingly quiet and we were the only ones there so it was awesome having the place to ourselves. We were having trouble with the sewer hookup but Hans came right over and fixed it. There was a block party going on near our spot so we checked that out and we had great burgers and it was awesome!

I found this place to be perfectly delightful! Rob has done an outstanding job to make it welcoming and convenient. This shower house is wonderful, the place is clean and orderly and it has a nice cat. This is a fine tent or camper van park. It is close to highway, but the traffic was infrequent so the noise did not bother me. Rob was responsive and attentive: overall an outstanding Hipcamp experience.
