From Chester, CA, take State Rt. 36 west 11.5 miles to State Rt. 32. Turn left onto Rt. 32 and go 25.5 miles to Butte Meadows sign. Turn left at sign onto Humboldt Rd (no sign) and go 8.7 miles to campground on right.
This place is an amazing little spot. Right on the creek, beautiful views and hiking. There are some trails or you can just follow the creek. The spots are big and a handful of them are right on the creek. If you bring little kids you may want to get one not on the creek because the bank leading down to the creek is kind of steep in a couple spots and the creek moves fast. Bring cash for the spot, last i saw it was about $24/night and worth it. The road in is easy and doesnt require 4wd.
It's a really nice campground. Butte creek is flowing fast from all the snowmelt. It will be a great place to camp this summer.
I love this campground I used to take my children there when they were young.
Come out and camp! Best time ever !! I adore this camp ground ! Clean , large and friendly atmosphere! Been here a few times and each time had a blast !!! You can’t beat the price either ! There is no cell service but make that your time to disconnect from every day life ! Well worth it! You can drive 6 miles up the road and get service if needed :)
Beautiful location in Lassen Forrest. Butte Creek runs along the camp grounds, so it gets VERY COLD at night. It's very pretty to walk the grounds. Well kept. The Forrest service was out every day with chainsaw cutting rounds for each camp site. Bring an 🪓 to make into smaller pieces for yourself. The restrooms are accessible. There are hand ground water pumps, and bring something with a wide mouth to collect water with, like a water pitcher. The campgrounds are sloped, so good luck finding a level area. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this location, but prepare for COLD WEATHER at night, even in the middle of August.
