Whiskeytown National Recreation Area

Quiet and nice hosts.

Great little spot. It's a little more down the hill from the other sites and the bathroom, so slightly more private, at least from all but 1 of the other. There's really only 1 spot for a tent at this specific site. The others have more options. The camping area in general is pretty shaded, and I'd say it's on average about 5-10 degrees cooler than down at the lake. There's a trail that goes down to the cold river and would probably be a fun place to go gold panning. There's a small pool down there that would be nice in the heat of the summer to cool off in.

This is a rustic campground, bring your own water. Sites are clean and well-tended. Parking is not too far away from the walk-in sites. There's lots of shade, and flat spots for tents, plus fire pits and grates. You can hear the river, but access is limited by brush and trees. Great value. Great camping.

The area was very large. Had a great time.

It's a great place to stay as long as you don't have neighbors that are running their generators all day long, i wish they had certain hours like other national parks , where they can only run em 7 to 9, 12 to 2 & 5 to 7

This is a nice primitive campground along a stream. The sites are spaced out ok quiet. The road into the campground isn't very good and might be a problem in a small car.
