This is a great Campground! Super clean, nice sites, fresh, clean bathrooms. Every campsite is so picturesque. Right on hat creek too. We caught trout everyday! And the Lava cave is a short walk across the way. We had lots of chipmunks hanging out with us too. They come right up your leg and eat Peanuts in your lap! Lots of fun for outdoor lovers!

The camp ground is well maintained and clean. There are vault toilets as well as one bathroom with flush toilets. It is right near the highway so expect to hear traffic. The nicer sites are closest to the creek. I would assume the sound of the creek would drown out the sound of the freeway. The birds and chipmunks are accustomed to visitors. Keep an eye out or they will hop in your vehicle/trailer if you leave the door open too long. Great fishing in the creek. Saw many people coming out with full stringers. A lot of traffic in and out. Many folks stopped to use the restroom as the rest area down the road was already closed for the season. Only rated a 3 due to closeness to the highway and traffic using the restroom.

Really like this campground. They allow tents. It's pretty. They have bathrooms and they are cleanish. The road is noisy but not entirely awful. Good fishing and the sound of Hat Creek. Lovely. 3 stars because our campsite had all sorts of dog poop and litter. The barbecue was dirty and the women's bathroom had no lights the first 3 nights of our stay. The camp authority was quick to tell us we couldn't use the electricity in our campsite because it belonged to the camp host. Why the camp host was not camped here is beyond me. Those iPhones really can put a drain on that government bill. They were, however, not so quick enforcing leash rules or the 9:00 PM quiet rule. We were verbally threated by drunk adults and their awful children. The camp host did nothing. They need to identify campsite spots, post rules and take advantage of signage. And put the camp host in his spot. Unless of course, he was in his spot, as the signage implied. I think they were just throwing their "all important " selves around.

I liked this place. A little too close to the 89/44 junction. Traffic is pretty much all we heard... But it was beautiful.

It's a popular and handy campground close to Redding. The town of Old Station is close with last minute supplies. A fun cave is just across the highway to explore. And the campground has bathrooms and faucets scattered throughout. The creek is stocked 1-2 times per week, which makes for great fishing for the kids.
