Camp Lotus Lodge & Campground lies on the bank of the South Fork American River. A perfect location for weddings, events, gatherings, or simply pitching a tent on soft grass near the river. We strive to provide guests with the unique experience of being immersed in the outdoors while still having some simple comforts, like a muffin and espresso in the morning. Please, come and bike, kayak, raft, hike, or simply find a good tree to read your book under while the river hums nearby. Have dinner with friends sitting around a campfire. Go to sleep under the stars. Wake up with a hot shower, warm muffin, steaming coffee, and repeat.
We have over thirty campsites that fit small families up to large groups, six different cozy cabins, a riverside tipi, ten RV hookup sites, a wonderful open grassy space for events, and a beautiful Event Hall. Within five minutes’ drive there are hundreds of miles of hiking and biking trails. Come give us a try and you just might make it a tradition!
This is the most beautiful place to camp ever! Grassy sites right on the river. Lots of space for the kids to run around too.
This is a great campground for tent camping. It is pretty busy, but they are good at keeping quiet hours and the “no dogs” policy is a plus to keep it peaceful. Most of the sites get a lot of shade, the store is very well equipped with nice essentials, and there are lots of rafting options. We chose to go with WET and had a good time. Plus, the showers are nice and warm! We spread out a group of 20 through three sites.
Our family has enjoyed camping at Camp Lotus many times over the years. We like rafting Chili Bat, 'parking' our raft at Lotus, where we put our chairs in the river ans enjoy the scenery and then the next day rafting the Gorge the next day. The staff and owners are really great.
This is a great camp space. Its very private, and quiet. Bathroom and showers are excellent. Water is from the well, so its drinkable. Very green space and shade everywhere. Easy access to river too. Also has space large groups. We take 50 youth interns here and they love it.
Best place to camp on the river HANDS DOWN!!! Super green and so relaxing. Facilities are extremely clean and the little market has anything you might have forgotten to pack.
