Great campground! Right by the river, lovely walk to the falls, plenty of trees and relative privacy. Even the other campers were friendly and respectful (YRMV). Just a vault latrine but that doesn't bother me.

We booked the week of our camping weekend. An were able to get the last reserve spot for that weekend. It turned out great, the campground is easy to navigate they space and other spaces were well taken care of. An everything was right on the Mccloud River. All day people were fishing enjoying the waterfall. We did a really nice hike along the river. It was a great location for the class we're taking in town. There is a local grocery store that was really nice to go to that have really fair prices. We are definitely coming back to this site.

This is a great campground. Tons of space - you aren’t on top of the other campers. It was very clean.

Beautiful campground, especially during Fall. Spectacular views of Mt Shasta and easy access to the McCloud falls Trail.

The campground is in a great location and is well maintained. Great for hiking the trails to the falls and for fishing. I am a tent camper and I found my tent pad to be pretty small and not too level. The FS had shut off the water just before I got there due to freezing temperatures. I asked the campground host about this and she was not very helpful. I had to drive to town to get bottled water. There seemed to be no "quiet hours" or at least they were not enforced. It was quite cold at night and I heard several generators running all night long so it was kind of noisy.

Nice spacious camp sites. Well maintained! Very nice location along the river with the waterfalls. It was a little crowded with a lot campers because all of this of course.
