Upon showing up we were unable to safely keep our kids and dog at this campground and had to find a different one last minute after driving back to the I-5 for phone service. There was an frame around a tent area that looked to one time be lovely and level but had eroded in the corners, the frame itself was splintered and broken, there was poison oak growing in the middle of the tent pad and berry bushes and poison oak right up and over the edges. There were cigarette butts and garbage and used toilet paper around the site, the bathrooms could be smelled from most of the campground and there was no water access plus it was very swampy in the water. At full the lake would have been beautiful. There looked to be once a nice water access but it was completely grown over with berry bushes and poison oak. The sites were very small. If you came to sit and lounge all day in the same chair and same spot it would be fine but with two high energy boys and a dog there was nowhere to go and play.

We love Ellery creek! This year there were a lot of mosquitos, so come prepared. There were also a lot of ants, on everything! They covered our tent, tables, and hammock. We were consistently brushing them away. Not an huge problem but really annoying if you leave anything out overnight- they swarm (even if it’s not food related) Additionally, normal water levels are back at Shasta which makes it much more enjoyable to see the water throughout the campground. Some of the sites (all cement/street sites) were flooded out, so I’d be cautious if that. Would’ve been a bummer had we arrived and not had a site that was not flooded!

There is NO camp host here. We had a terrible family with a barking dog all night while we were there. They had no self awareness and a lot of people left the following day due to how loud and obnoxious this dog was.

Bathrooms are clean. We always stay in campsite 1/2, they connect and give plenty of space for a few extra tents. Site 7 is also nice and secluded. And any along the water (not on the cement/roadway) look lovely, we just are never lucky enough to get those spots when reserving!
