We're 54 miles from Redding off of 299E, (about 1-1/2 hour drive). DO NOT TAKE ROAD 11 FROM THE NORTH, IT IS CLOSED! PIease try to ignore the "car art" in the Pit River Tribe's Rancheria as you're coming here. Drive right through it, it's no reflection on us. The last mile or so of the road here can be pretty rough, but on arrival, you'll know it's worth the trip!
No Cell phone service available here, so it's the perfect opportunity to unplug. We do have a land line up at the house in case of an emergency. Also, if you really need it, WiFi is available at the house.

- Cold Mineral Springs bubbling out of the mountainside, attracting wildlife along with people seeking out the healing properties of the sulfur scented spring water.
- 100+ acres with private hiking trails along the stream for easy trekking, and summit trails (climbing up to almost 6,000 ft.) to the peak.
⚒️ History, Gold & Sacred Sites
- Sacred healing mineral spring "Deadshot" named by the native peoples for its ability to cure all ailments with 'one shot'. Nipisum or 'health water' was later bottled by the California Medicinal Springs Co. at the turn of the 20th century.
-Historic gold-mining, museums, shops, and classic small-town charm in the greater area.
🐝Other things to note:
-Trinity Outpost is committed to the land-sharing ethos of Hipcamp preserving ecology and defending habitat for wildlife and pollinators. The mineral springs and trails are open to the public during the daytime. We also host with WWOOF cultural exchange volunteers helping us bring life back to this historic land building an organic farm and sustainable community. Campground is yours to book but is also surrounded by National Forest Land which belongs to everyone. !!!

Our 220 remote acres are adjacent to Shasta Trinity National Forest in the beautiful Cascade Range between Mt. Lassen and Mt. Shasta in Northern California.
It's a working ranch with tree farms, animals, hydroelectric power, sawmill, gardens, orchards, creeks, springs, trails, and our camp alongside Kosk Creek.
We're 54 miles from Redding off of 299E, (about 1-1/2 hour drive). DO NOT TAKE ROAD 11 FROM THE NORTH, IT IS CLOSED! PIease try to ignore the "car art" in the Pit River Tribe's Rancheria as you're coming here. Drive right through it, it's no reflection on us. The last mile or so of the road here can be pretty rough, but on arrival, you'll know it's worth the trip!
No Cell phone service available here, so it's the perfect opportunity to unplug. We do have a land line up at the house in case of an emergency. Also, if you really need it, WiFi is available at the house.

PLEASE READ!
Tucked away on 20 semi-secluded acres in Lakehead, CA, this private land borders National Forest land, perfect for those seeking peace, privacy, or family adventure. Hike steep hills to the ridge, stargaze under open skies, or explore nearby attractions like Lake Shasta, Shasta Caverns, the Upper Sacramento River, and other hidden gems, great for fishing, hunting, mushroom foraging, or simply unwinding in nature.
Both camps are located at the end of the road not far from Interstate 5. Behind the gate is our property and a short, fairly steep driveway to the top. Vehicle length limited to 20ft. and trailers limited to 18ft. AWD, 4WD, and FWD recommended. The top is flat and has room to turnaround. The mountains are calling!
Whether you’re here for climbing Castle Crags, boating on Shasta Lake, or enjoying the quiet, this off-the-beaten-path retreat offers a true NorCal wilderness experience. The Upper Sacramento River is just three miles away, with swimming holes, kayaking rapids, and fishing spots which are some of the closest activities without needing to drive on the freeway.
The camps are on the north side (North Camp) and the south side (South Camp) separated by the small home and are shady in the summer late afternoons. First come, first serve bases. Picnic tables, potable water, and power outlets are available.
Conveniences are less than 20 minutes in the little town of Lakehead. It has gas stations, and a nicely stocked general store and Camp Shasta restaurant with great food and a cool mountain vibe!
This is true wilderness, yet only 10 minutes the freeway. Expect mosquitoes, flies, and other bugs. There is poison oak around, but not in the camping area, so please prepare accordingly. There are bears, foxes, deer, snakes, and other wildlife in the area. A bear box is provided for food storage.

We loved tent camping here! It was private, quiet, and had everything we were looking for! I particularly enjoyed the fire pit and appreciated the toilet and hose which added convenience. Not difficult to get to and everything was as described. There were a good number of insects during midday to sunset, but we found that to be the case in the entire region and not just at this site. I would definitely recommend!

Absolutely loved our stay at the hunts hotsprings. So many beautiful upgrades from my last visit , from benches to bridges over waterways. Camping spaces were perfect, beautiful views. The hot springs temperature and views and the spiritual rejuvenation felt after was one for the books. Fell in love with the wood portal , which is my favorite route to the tubs.

This was the best hot springs experience I've ever had. I wish I could have stayed longer. Our host was a great communicator and went out of the way to make our visit great. The other guest were also a lot of fun. There were lots of fish in the creek but I didn't have time to go fishing. I will be back.

We liked camping at Kosk hot springs. We could see all the recent improvements: new trails, PVC pipe to the hot pool, new bridge over the creek. We did not meet the host but all the campers were very nice.

Nice open meadow camping a short walk from well maintained hot springs along a beautiful river. Sites along the river have less shade but you get the lovely sound of flowing water. Sites across the meadow in the trees have plentiful shade.
Check your dogs, in spring there are definitely ticks!

Camping at the hot spring was an amazing and relaxing experience. Soaking in the warm natural water while surrounded by nature and fresh air made it feel like a peaceful escape. The highlight was enjoying the hot spring under the stars—definitely something I would do again.
