All the folks at Antlers are friendly. And that’s a good thing, because you'll be packed in like sardines. In the summer it's like a tent city, and hotter than Baghdad. In order to back in our 19 foot travel trailer we had to move our picnic table, our neighbor's chairs, and their truck. Took 25 minutes. Despite the 104 degree heat, at night one of our several neighbors lit a fire in their fire ring. It was so close to our camper we felt the heat. The lake is nice but not fantastic. If you want fantastic, go to Mount Lassen, a few hours away. If you want the experience of sleeping in a refugee camp, this is the place for you. I give the place a 3 rather than a 1 because the pool was cool, the lake was swimmable, and the people were friendly. I didn't check out the WiFi, but you had to walk next door to the marina to use it, we were told. Bathrooms and showers were okay--old and run down, but not dirty. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
We loved the beautiful, clean grounds of this area. There are many established trees and foliage, just like a campground. The park was quiet and guests seemed respectful. We stayed for one night, during which time the power company had to turn off the power for a few hours during the night for some work. The RV park manager/owner offered everyone a free bag of ice upon check in for the unexpected inconvenience. We were very pleased with our overall experience and would stay again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is an excellent RV park featuring both RV and tent camping. Family friendly with direct access to the Antlers Marina and boat launch. Great place for family reunions or group gatherings. Group camp areas and picnic/BBQ area. Staff was wonderful. Sites were large, very clean and level. Spotty on satellite reception for TV. Lots of shade. Camp store and deli. Playground for kids including Basketball and jungle gym equipment. We really enjoyed this RV park. New owners for the last two years and they have made wonderful strides in cleaning up and improving the park. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
There is definitely a train that runs by the campground frequently. Scared my 2 1/2 year old to death one night. Very loud! Music is extremely loud Thursday - Saturday nights 8 pm until 12 am. The place seems to attract a lot of locals...wanting to drink and party. We went with 2 other RVers and had 8 kids with us, so the pool was a nice amenity. Our spots were the closest to the playground which was nice to keep a close watch on the kids. I definitely would not get spot 6 next to the dump station or the horizontal spot right next to the highway. We stayed 3 nights and had spots 1, 2, and 3. They were close to the highway and not very pretty, but the company was good and our friends made the trip worth our 5 hour drive from the Bay Area. The lake was extremely low at this time, so there really were no "lake view" sites. All in all it was a nice trip, but mostly due to the company not the campground. Our friends said they checked out Antler RV and it looked a lot nicer. We may try there next time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This place was an absolute dump. Camp sites had garbage laying around. Firepits had garbage in them that had not been cleaned out. Restrooms, showers and laundry facility were filthy and had not been cleaned for quite some time. One of the washing machines in the laundry room leaked water all over the floor and the floor was rotting out. Some guy was passed out drunk in the children's play area. A couple with children that came in the same night we did, had reservations for three nights and left after only one night. Will never go back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is the worst campground I have ever seen. It's dirty, extremely tight, noisy (train),
and is not a good family place. The toilets were always overflowing, and the dump station is located right next to a site. Disgusting. The lake itself is beautiful, but I would suggest anywhere but here. This place attracts a rough crowd too. The people across from us were doing drugs and fighting all night. We camped here in a Truck Camper.
Not to be confused with Lakeshore Inn and RV park. We stayed in a space backing up to Doney Creek, and we enjoyed it. Plenty of shade, leveled with no problem. Cable TV was spotty, so I just hooked up the satellite. Boat slips available, and this is a big draw for others at the campsite. Staff was helpful, and friendly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I'll say this: What did we expect for the rate? It was not expensive, and it is mostly a long-term resident park. The pool was clean, so were the restrooms, but I would not let my kids use them without an adult escort, as some of the people hanging around seemed frightening. We followed the sheriff into the park, it was not a social call, that should have been a sign... We won't stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is basically a park for long term residents, with many older units in need of major maintenance. One trailer had 4 or 5 old refrigerators piled next to it. Fire rings are actually old rusty wheels without tires. There are about 10 spaces for travelers but the whole place needs a lot of work. The pool was open and looked clean; however, the WiFi was down and the "store" was inadequately stocked. We would not stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Traveling up I-5, stopped here for the night because I noticed it was a Passport America park. A typical, older campground with limited facilities, but washrooms were clean, staff were friendly and the price included cable TV and WiFi. Sites were a bit sloped but not enough to force me to bring out the leveling blocks for the one night. If I was staying longer I would. All sites and roads are gravel. My length is 44' and I just fit into the pull-through. I would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This RV Park is under New Ownership. The staff is helpful and friendly. I drove there by myself without my husband, as he had to work and arrived latter. Upon my arrival they hooked up my 40 foot motorhome for me. With a smile they quickly hooked up my electrical, cable, water, and sewer! I was impressed with their friendly service. The park is easily accessible from the freeway and well marked with several signs. The lake was very close, not more than a five minute drive away. The pull through sites were long and easy to drive into. I would highly recommend this park to lake lovers. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This park was nowhere near the rating received in the Trailer Life campground directory. It was reasonably well kept but it is an old park and shows its age.The sites were rustic and dusty. It appears the park is supported by the numerous "permanents" living on site.
We ran into a very uncomfortable situation with a neighbors Pit Bull mix, running loose in the park and acting agressively towards our dogs. A request to the Managers to take care of it brought the response "just shoot it" and a request to the owner brought nothing but laughter and unpleasant words. In fact, they said we could leave if we didn't like it. We would not recommend this campground to anyone. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Small older park. Close to - but not on Shasta Lake - must drive about 1.5 mi to get to nearest arm of the lake (Salt Creek)and even further to get to boat ramps at Lakehead. Easy access to/from highway I-5. Gravel roads & sites. 12 pull-through sites w;hich are too close together. Small, limited store. Restrooms & showers were old but were kept reasonably clean. Had approx 6 year-round RV residents living there and several "permanent" RV's set up for their owner's use during summer. Place was for sale when we were there so resident manager, though nice wasn't very motivated. It would probably appeal to jet-skiers & water skiers looking for an inexpensive place fairly close to the lake so they can stay at the lake all day and return to RV at night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
