Lassen National Forest
This national forest and green recreational area is considered the “Crossroads of California.” Why? Well, it’s because the area is crisscrossed with different environments, ranging from mountains, volcanoes, and deserts, all wrapped-up in one massive forest area.
At Lassen Volcanic National Park, you can explore the 1.2 million acres by swimming in huge lakes, looking over panoramic mountain views at 5,100 feet above sea level, and more. Want to sleep under a bright, not-light-polluted stary night? Dozens of disperses campsites dot the area. Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, head into the backcountry. The wilderness areas of Ishi, Caribou and Thousand Lakes offer sublime adventures, nods to native culture, and rich history lessons. Fun Fact: Las
This national forest and green recreational area is considered the “Crossroads of California.” Why? Well, it’s because the area is crisscrossed with different environments, ranging from mountains, volcanoes, and deserts, all wrapped-up in one massive forest area.
At Lassen Volcanic National Park, you can explore the 1.2 million acres by swimming in huge lakes, looking over panoramic mountain views at 5,100 feet above sea level, and more. Want to sleep under a bright, not-light-polluted stary night? Dozens of disperses campsites dot the area. Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, head into the backcountry. The wilderness areas of Ishi, Caribou and Thousand Lakes offer sublime adventures, nods to native culture, and rich history lessons. Fun Fact: Lassen is one of only two observed habitats of the endangered Sierra Nevada red fox.
Upon entering the parks operated gates, you’ll have the chance to set-up camp at eight campgrounds that range from developed to primitive. Roughly half of the park's campsites are reservable, with four campgrounds populated by only first-come, first-served. Each campsite comes with a litany of amenities, including picnic tables, fire rings (with grills), bear box, and more. However, there are no hookups in the park—so charge-up your devices before heading out. Also, a dump station is located near Manzanita Lake, where you can also find drinking water.

Dusty Campground sits on the banks of beautiful Lake Britton, near the Pit River. Campsites are shaded by oak and pine, and are particularly popular with owners of small boats. No boat? No problem, there’s still tons for you to do, including swimming, fishing, and hiking the nearby scenic trails.
Honn Creek sits on the banks of Honn Creek just a few miles from the Thousand Lakes Wilderness. There are great hiking trails nearby, and the fishing in both Honn and Hat Creeks is a draw for anglers lookin’ to catch some trophy trout. The turnaround is tight, so leave the trailer at home!

Family fun? Flush toilets? Firewood for sale? Enough with the F’s, this campground deserves an A+! There are 6 loops perfect for large tent cities and RVs: Ponderosa and Pine are on the shores of the lake, Fir and Aspen are in the middle with electric and water hookups, and Cedar and Cottonwood are the furthest with full hook-ups.
Eagle Lake has flush toilets and electricity for all your grooming needs, making Christie Campground a high-end camping option (but not quite glamping). The pines provide privacy and some sites offer lake vistas. Make sure to book this one for your summer weekend getaway!

On top of that, there are flush toilets and electricity so you can shave and blow dry your hair in the morning… Camping made easy, no? So get out here and log some serious lake time!

Roxie Peconom Campground is one of the lesser-known sites in Lassen National Forest and is surrounded by a dense stand of Douglas fir.
