The reviews are accurate, the resort can use some TLC. Simple upgrades/ maintenance of bathrooms, level RV spots. With services closed i’m surprised its full price in September.

We really enjoyed our time here. Previous reviewers who implicitly shrieked at the restrooms and showers were not wrong but there were multiple restroom buildings. The one nearest the road merited a shriek or two. Another one, further back in the RV area was better. Not great, but good enough. I saw at least one other restroom but did not go in.
The place itself is nice. It's far from any major roads and the local road that passes the campground is only lightly used. There's a boat launch, a "splash zone" (floating fun house?) for kids. I might have enjoyed the splash zone, too, but we spent our time kayaking and paddleboarding. When we visited, in late July, the water temperature was, for me, perfect and the water was clear, about 8-10 foot visibility.
The sites themselves are laid out a bit chaotically as they tried to fit the sites between the existing cedars and pines. A lot of them were quite large. It seemed to me that some of the sites might make leveling the trailer or RV challenging, but our site was fine, with just a couple of pads under one set of wheels to help the leveling system. Most of the sites are in partial shade due to the surrounding forest.
The price we paid, $62 reflects a $2/night pet fee but does not reflect their reservation fee, convenience fee, or the taxes.

I think this campground probably used to be top-end but due to age and lack of personnel and infrastructure it has degraded. The bathrooms were filthy with tampons and dirty diapers spread out on the floor all day and poop on the floor. The food at the restaurant was OK, sometimes good and sometimes meh - very inconsistent. My biggest peeve was the big travel trailer that harassed us on our day of departure hours before checkout. It sat there circling and idling. We had a fluke rainstorm coming through with massive flooding that had covered everything in inches of mud and sunk our trailer down into the ground, so it was a bit of a hassle to get out in the morning only to be stalked by a truck with a massive 5th wheel idling and getting impatient hours before the allotted checkout time and was annoyed that the campground would have let them check in that early.

I booked through Roverpass, so did not experience the same reservations issues as other reviewers. Staff at the office was polite and the check in process was quick and efficient. Once I found the site, I was met with quite possible the most sloped (side to side) site that I have ever seen. Not a super huge deal, just an inconvenience as I don’t have auto levelers. Once l got it squared away, I went to connect power. I honestly could not remember if I had booked a 30 or a 50 amp site. The pedestal had both in it when I connected the 50 amp, my surge protector would not connect as it said voltage on L2 was too low. I instead connected to the 30 amp and all was good. I called up to the office just to give them a heads up. I wasn’t looking to move sites or receive a partial refund. Just wanted to let them know that there was an issue with it. She said they would send somebody to come look at it, which they did promptly. The problem is, they sent the security guy. he wasn’t rude, but he wasn’t very personable either. He pulled out his little handheld tester and plugged in and informed me that there was no power and 50 amp. I explained that was because the circuit breaker was off (I had shut it off). He turned it back on and saw that the situation was as I described. He then informed me that it didn’t matter because I had booked a 30 amp site. His demeanor just came off as brash and slightly unpleasant. Either way, everything else was fine. I would stay here again if I had to, but I wouldn’t seek it out and it wouldn’t be my first choice. It seems to be more geared towards families with young kids.

This is a good spot location wise-the lake is easily accessible and offers spectacular views of Mt. Shasta. Unfortunately, the campground is poorly managed and affected our experience. First, the quiet hours are not enforced-DO NOT expect a peaceful camping experience. During our stay, people were partying well after midnight-given the relatively close proximity of sites, this can be a big concern if you after a restful experience.
Another issue with this campground was the reservation system-they require additional fees to secure a spot of your choice. If you do not pay the extra $$, the reservation system will place you anywhere in the park dependent on the type of site you have chosen. For us, this resulted in a space that limited our pop up tent setup-despite, asking for management to relocate us to a spot that would be more accessible, we never received a call back.
Overall, would not recommend this campground in it's current state. There are other private and dispersed camping areas nearby which offer a better overall experience.

We would only revisit if they train their staff & update their summer campfire policy.
Location & scenery =A+
Accommodations, hospitality & check-in reservation process = F
This is a lovely location. We were 100% dismayed by how we were treated upon arrival. We have a class C RV. Thus, we called during our on-line booking to assure (To double check) that we could book a 10 person campsite (+) they would allow & accommodate our 27 ft RV.
At that time five (10) person camp sites were available via the web. The young woman that answered the phone said it was no problem & told us to reserve site #6 as planned. We did & just for caution added in notes with our vehicle type & details. Essentially we requested that if site #6 was not going to work that we get another one of the five (10) person camp sites that was semi level.
We received our booking confirmation that day & a couple of additional emails the week prior to our arrival- confirming our reservation with Covid protocols. Confirmation email = Your Campspot Reservation Confirmation (do-not-reply@campspot.com) Aug 16, 2020, 3:45 PM
We arrived at 5:30PM on August 28th & were greeted that they had us in site #6 as planned. YAY! But, oh wait, no...
Ridiculous questions & comments ensued:
1. But we can’t accommodate a 27ft RV there as we would overhang into the camping area ( you mean the place where the tent would go & we don’t need one?)
2. No, the road. (But we will back in & our tail can potentially hang over the camping area)
3. Does it say we can accommodate a 27 ft RV on our website? (O-M-G)
4. You should have called us to ask (Yes, and we did!)
5. When I asked if they read our notes the young man’s response was “Oh, we don’t read the notes until the day you arrive.” (I had to calmly ask “Why? That does not make sense...”)
6. Did you book on our site / another site. I am not sure this is our confirmation (I showed our confirmation email from them & he conceded)
7. We are fully booked so let me call my manager (Verna? I think her name was) to see what we can do.
They put us in the RV full hookup section (We thought they were fully booked, per his earlier comment...)
We were placed in a site that was not level & so tight between 4 trees that we had to back in at an angle to get room for our slide out. RVs within 10 feet on either side so social distancing was not REALLY their policy.
Also, despite CA air quality being horrible (CZU & other bay area fires) they fully supported campfires in the park in late August 2020. Our stay was Aug 28th. Many campers (50%-ish) did in fact have campfires. So, under the canopy of big trees was a suffocating fog of campfire smoke for us to breath ALL EVENING LONG. So, we shut ourselves up in the RV & left as soon as quiet hours were over. Regarding campfires...I am not trying to advocate they should not have them at all/ever. Late fall & winter fires when the air quality is better & fire danger lower, Okay- no problem. Maybe they may want to consider a policy to use propane fire pits for campers during a June-August summer stay. You can still roast marshmallows over them too!

The beach was sectioned off and people were very respectful of COVID-19 precautions. I have a rooftop tent and trailer so I did not use the RV sections the larger of the was insane with so many people. I would not use that section. Not a tree to be found in that general arena.
We up at the upper end of the tent area. Lots of privacy. The place has stayed clean other than the bathrooms on Saturday. No one cleaned or picked up trash.
Kids had a blast in the splash Zone which was new to us. Daughter trying the paddle boards which apparently replaced the paddle boats we used to rent. Can’t beat the price. No daytime use during COVID. There were enough people camping to keep the place busy

We were passing through on our way north on I-5. We made a tent camping reservation for one night, wanting to be close to Lake Siskiyou so we could take a dip in the morning. At the last minute, some good friends ended up being able to join us for the night in their Sprinter van. The good: The staff was able to add our friends to our reservation when I checked in, and they were helpful and friendly about it. The bad: Every extra vehicle and person (beyond the base rate for 2 adults) costs extra, so including fees and taxes, our very basic tent camping site ended up costing a whopping $60 for two vehicles, four adults, and two kids 3 and under. Wowza.
The campground is huuuuge and accommodates a ton of large groups and all kinds of rigs, so it was PARTY CENTRAL while we were here in mid-July. Quiet hours are 0% enforced, so we definitely heard drunken renditions of “Happy Birthday” + howling that traveled from campsite to campsite (think wave-style, like at a baseball game) + amplified music from two campsites over (too bad if you don’t like their playlist) until well past midnight. Probably fine if you have earplugs or are in the mood. Sucked while we were in a tent with a 3-year-old. But also, it was kind of our bad to look for some sleep at a lakeside “camp resort” instead of some nice remote National Forest land.
Upshot: You can pay a daytime entrance fee for access to the campground’s store/beach/etc (the beach access was awesome), but I’d look for somewhere cheaper and quieter to camp next time.

I can't speak to the cabin rentals or the tent experience, but staying in an RV was fantastic. Stayed over Memorial Weekend after they reopened and it was a wonderful getaway. I found the RV full hookup sites to be adequately spaced and functional. The draw here is the beach and the views. Spectacular! $44 gets you full hookups and "cable," but don't plan on watching much. There were 12 channels of which maybe 5 were watchable if you are into 1980's TV reception. No points deducted for the crappy cable because what are you doing inside watching TV anyway?! They also need to handle their trash better and have someone empty the bins more often. Looking forward to returning, unfortunately they are booked solid for the 4th. If anyone there reads this and wants to fit me in for say the 1st through the 5th of July. Please do!

I wish I’d have asked for a different site or at least for other options. It was just Way Too Crowded and public where we were (site 338... don’t do it!!). Restrooms/showers near this crammed rv area needed some care. I checked out other ones further away, and they were better.
Getting there was fine. The sign could have been tricky if it was dark out, but it was no problem. It’s in a great location; the lake is lovely. We had no problem getting our boards to the water. The staff were not friendly but not “mean” either.
It’s a great location with tons of hiking and beautiful landscape. Castle lake was close by and super beautiful!’
We liked the area, but we wouldn’t stay here again unless there were no other options.
