Nice campground. Beautiful trees. Reservation came off without a hitch.

Nice campground with some amenities like a camp store.

We booked the last day of the season. There were barely any sites occupied but we were placed next to a couple in a van, so seemed odd I couldn't book any other site with so much vacancy for some space. Closer bathrooms were closed. Showers ran out of propane so no heat, so no shower when we were hoping to shower. Maybe just learned a lesson not to book so close to the end of the season more than anything. The site was spacious and had a trail to the lake. Pretty at sunset before the rain came in.

Everything was great, the only thing I somehow missed was that our cabin had 4 bunk beds and we came prepared to sleep together in a bigger bed, but we made it work. The campground and lake were very peaceful. No mosquitoes (end of August), but there were yellow jackets around the water.

We enjoyed camping at Manzanita Lake. The short hike around the lake was wonderful and we enjoyed using inflatable SUPs and a small kayak on the lake.

I only have one suggestion that signage is used at all trails. It would be nice to know how long and how easy/med/difficult each trail is. And where each trail is located.

Other than the typical choking campfire smoke that emerges every night and almost requires donning a ventilator, the experience was pleasurable. Quieter than I expected until the motorhome next to me started it's generator at 4 AM.... and he didn't even offer free coffee to the angry crowds... I was out of camp at first light, sought the refuge and isolation of Manzanita's shoreline, caught a few trout and somehow salvaged another near wilderness experience...be wary of Memorial Day!

Site was comfortable and spacious. Bathrooms were clean. If you're planning to shower, we sure to purchase and obtain a code from the camp store before they close. Firewood was shockingly expensive ($15 for a small bundle).

We really enjoyed our time at manzanita lake campground The sites were very spacious and clean and it was very quiet. Great location for visiting Mt. Lassen N.P. Was very convenient to have a store at the campground and next to the visitor center. We will definitely be going back and have already shared with friends how nice it is.

Great Campsite. Nice location next to trail around Manzanita Lake. You can walk to a store that sells basic supplies, sandwiches, some food, beer, etc. You can also shower there.
