Lake Siskiyou Resort is just a short 4.5 miles from Mt. Shasta City right on Interstate 5 in Northernmost California. The campground and amenities were developed quite some years ago so some areas are below standard.... but with that said it is a nice camping experience if you like to be outdoors. There are full hookups, partial hookups (water, electric) and tent spaces. There are over 200 spaces. It is a very popular camping spot in the summers so it can be crowded and noisy with lots of kids. The RV spots close to the water are often most desired, but are also the most crowded and sometimes noisy, there are great spots "up the hill" from the camp store that have a little more privacy depending on the spot you choose or are assigned. We have camped here numerous times throughout the years.
What to do there? Great easy hike, a trail completely goes around the lake, beautiful! Swimming area, fishing, boating and kayaking, a small marina with rentals, a camp store with the usual souvenirs and a very nice ice cream concession where you can make sundaes! There is a small restaurant that has a beer/wine bar and pretty good food at decent prices. There is a outdoor theater where they show movies in the summer and a snack bar at the swimming area. Nearby is the Sisson Museum and a fun fish hatchery where you can buy a handful of food and feed the little fish! A drive past the campground goes up to a box canyon that is a fun drive, but not with a trailer or motorhome... the road gets a bit sketchy before long. But even though one may think the road doesn't go through, it does and goes all the way to the top of a mountain that intersects with the Pacific Coast Trail. There is also a free campground (Gumboot Lake) that is up the road quite a ways, but not easy to always find, signage is mostly absent.
Other reviews have said they stayed free.... but don't confuse that with the actual campground where there are hookups and amenities. Across the lake on the East side is a area where folks often camp for free, but it is totally boon-docking. If you have a kayak or small boat you can cross the lake to the campground area. If you stay across the lake and drive over to the "resort" there is a daily entrance fee of something like $1 per person.
The only downsides to this campground is that it is often quite busy so you won't be getting a wilderness experience, and many of the facilities need upgrading, especially the restrooms and showers, at the beginning of the season they are in pretty good shape, but they have very heavy use in the summer so many people choose to use the restrooms in their own RV's if they have them.
The access is easy except, there is one small sign (easy to miss sometimes) that indicate where the entrance is and it comes as a bit of a surprise if you haven't been there before, so watch your GPS or map so you don't have to try to turn around on a two lane road to go back and find the entrance. Not super easy to find in the dark if you aren't familiar with the area.
With all that said, even at the busy times we enjoy the beautiful lake and one can always find a quiet place to relax as long as you head away from the crowds.

We come every summer. We love that they have full hookup sites that aren't crammed together.
The only downside is trash managment. It used to be really good but a lot of the cans were overflowing this year.

I can't really put my finger on it but this place had a strange vibe to me. Even with the nice size sites and being close to the water, I wasn't quite content here.
The facilities are run down. There was no soap in the bathrooms. I have been in nicer bathrooms in a BART station in Oakland. The property is aging overall. I got the feeling that this place is about 30 years past its heyday.
When we are in the area next time I will look for another option.
