Again take your cameria wonderful place and close to home.. I liked the campground also drove around to take down the best campsite number right on the lake and picnicking spots that are beautiful. Always love going there also to get away from the summer heat in Redding. More

Living in Norther California, I am lucky to live close to the mountains and ocean. Mt. Lassen is a bout 1.5 hours away.

I have been going to Mt. Lassen for the past ten years for camping, fishing, swimming and hiking. We normally camp at 6000 feet and fish for rainbow and brown trout in the Feather River and numerous streams that run down the mountain. Lake Almanor and the town of Chester are at the foot of Mount Lassen which is covered... More

We chose to live here after looking for property to purchase for over a year. This place has it all. Beautiful meadows, mountain lakes, snow fed creeks, fishing, hiking, camping, you name it. Definately worth the time to make it over here. More

Great park, hiking in summer, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing in winter. Lightly visited. Not to be missed for the outdoor enthusiast. More

Such a nice park! Not crowded, lots of history and geology, and some great campgrounds with evening programs in some. The drive through the park is outstanding, with lots of wildlife (always see bears at King's Creek Falls!) and some take your breath away scenery. More
