Didn't realize the cabins were not reserved via recreation.gov like the campsites are. The entire national park was closed because of a wildfire, and the contracted company would not cancel our reservation. We could not cancel it, but could not even enter the park to utilize it.

Great little cabin that was walking distance to Manzanita Lake. Small store sold basics, firewood, and gas. Very nice campground overall!

Cabins and campsite were clean. Close to store without being too close. This cabin was a little too close to the bathrooms, which were particularly stinky.All in all, we loved the cabins and will be coming back...maybe to one that is closer to the lake/further from the bathrooms.

Spent two nights in on of the cabins and it was amazing! Close to the lake, rented paddleboards, hiked, and generally spent a couple of wonderful days enjoying the beauty of Lassen. So many butterflies everywhere!

We loved staying in the camping cabins! The location cannot be beat with easy access to lake views and the park trails. The ranger programing and museum hours are limited, and it's best to pack in the food supplies you will need. Enjoy!

Our cabin was close to the lake and the camp store. There are nearby hikes in which you need not get into a car. I just wish I stayed for a few more days.

We stayed at the cabin #17 which is an 8 person cabin with bunker beds (basically 4 two storied beds in four corner, there are no other space in the cabin other than the small area in the middle of the beds). The beds had 3 inch mattresses. The mattresses were wrapped with something leather-y. Make sure you take bed sheets and pillows. The cabin had a lamp but it was pretty dim. Would suggest bringing your own lamp. These cabins got propane heater. The heat can make you feel a little suffocated if you have many people in the cabin. We were all sweating in the middle of the night and had to turn off the heating and keep the window slightly open. But other than that the site was pretty nice. It had a standard picnic table and a fire pit. There are pit toilets and cleaning station in close proximity. There was a sink by the toilet which didn't work. There is a store a minute away from the cabin where you can find snacks, drinks, firewood, ice etc. You can see the lake from outside of the cabin and the walk around the lake was pretty nice.

It is better to have electricity and bedding. We didn't bring pillows and blankets. So it is hard to sleep with clothes on.
