This is great park in the Lassen National Forest, senior pass was only $7.00. Just north of Chester and lake Almanor. short drive to Lassen Park which was our end destination. Heavy forest, nearby creek. No hookups but clean restrooms. Fresh drinking water for RV fill up, but no dump station. Most sites fairly level and a few pull throughs. Easy entry from Rt 36, but have to watch close for the turn off. The Ranger station on the north end of Chester, just passed the airport and also on rt 36, can help with maps and information. Some road noise but almost none late at night. Loved the place and will definitely stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

While this campground doesn't have many amenities, it is sparsely populated and a beautiful location. The times we have camped here we have been 1 of 8 or so spaces occupied. The individual spaces are large and configured in a way that doesn't put anyone right on top of you. Most of the spaces are level. The spaces in the front loop, away from the creek, better. While we camp in a tent trailer, most of our neighbors were in large travel trailers and they navigated through he campground with ease. The entire campground in under the cover of large pine trees. The campground is at 5000 ft above sea level in the Lassen National Forest, just out side Chester, CA and minutes from Lassen Volcanic National Park. The campground is open from May to October and the National Park is only open when the main road, Hwy 89, is passable. In 2007, this was May but in 2006 it was July. This is an amazing park, but camping in the park is like a refugee camp. By staying outside the National Park, you can enjoy beautiful natural surroundings up close. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This park was full with full time residents. Very small park, had a very hard time getting into the drive way and had to go all the way around back to the street to get into our site for the night. I have no idea how they got some of these RV's into the spaces they were in. The staff was very nice. The place was clean. I would stay there again overnight but not for any length of time there just isn't any room. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This place was rustic dirty. Stayed here 3 nights. Seems lots of camps had campfires going and it was very smoky. Doubt I would return. Restrooms were good. Store is well stocked. Probably good if you are a fisherman. Lake was pretty. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I arrived at this park at 10:30 am on a Saturday. I was told we couldn't enter the park because the check in is 1:00 pm. I had friends there who arrived Friday. I was told by them the site I was assigned was vacant. The office staff told me to go into to Chester, Find a place to park and wait until 1:00 pm. I asked to see the manager. She told me the reason why they don't allow anyone in before 1:00 was because the roads were to narrow for two RVs to pass. I mentioned to her this was Saturday morning. Not many RVs leave on a Saturday and if they do they either leave early or just before check out. Now they had a list of who would be departing. All they needed to do is find out if the departing RVs were ready to leave at that moment. From the main office to the site I was assigned couldn't have been more then a 1/8 mile. I ended up parking in the over flow area and waited until 1:00. A total of 3 RVs left between the time I arrived to check in and 1:00. Every once in awhile I have run into park managers or owners who feel it is an honor for you to stay at their park. They have it backwards. Without us as customers they will be out of business. It is plain and simple this is BAD BUSINESS. I will not be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The RV park is nicely wooded, right on Lake Almanor. The office staff was friendly and there was a small store. The waste dump was easily accessed. There is access to launch your boat. No discounts available. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. We would give a higher rating, but there is no pool or other amenities. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a PG&E campground. We camped here several times during the summer in our 30 foot rig. Most (if not all) sites have a view of Butt Valley Reservoir. This is a "primitive" campground. It has paved roads to the camping sites. It has pit toilets and water is available but there are no hookups. The restrooms were cleaned daily. While there is no formal "equipment" for kids, the roads are safe for bicycles and there is a large beach to play on. One of the big pluses is the slope of the lake bottom. It is so gradual that a person can go out quite a ways from the shore before the water actually gets deep. We camped here in a Motorhome.
