Not sure I found this actual campground, but did find a dirt road off Castle Lake Road that had nice dispersed spots. I have a Ford Transit 350 and it fit down the road and the spots easily. No other humans for two days.

Went by to scope it out As stated there are 6 sites, but there is no way we could have gotten our 30’ TT in to any of them Much better suited for car/van or tent camping First come/First served

You can get a 25' RV in sites 3,4,5. they are over 30' in length. Site 1 and 2 is long a narrow. made for Vans. Site 6 was the camping host. Also a large site. There are two bathrooms across from site 1 and 2. Just a 1/4 mile from Castle Lake. Awesome place to hike or kayak / paddle board. I forgot to check cell service.

Very nice location in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, about 20 minutes west of the town of Mt. Shasta. Campsites are free, first-come first-served, and there are only 5 of them (the 6th one is taken by the camp host); maximum stay is three days (changed from 14 days) and campsites fill up quickly.

Very nice location in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, about 20 minutes west of the town of Mt. Shasta. Campsites are free, first-come first-served, and there are only 5 of them (the 6th one is taken by the camp host); maximum stay is three days (changed from 14 days) and campsites fill up quickly. The sites are large and relatively private, with level areas for parking as well as for pitching tents. Each site has a large concrete picnic table and a large fire ring with a grill. There are two pit toilets but no water or trash cans are available.The campground is located 1/2 mile from Castle Lake where there is swimming, fishing, small boating, etc. The area is quiet and peaceful and has easy access to the nearby lakes and towns.
