Summary
It’s a single-site rental (not a campground), so no dispersed or established campsites nearby. A permit is included with the reservation; fees apply. There are no toilets, water, fire rings, or picnic tables—campers must pack in/out everything. RVs and vehicles must park below; access is via a steep trail. Expect stunning 360° views of Mount Shasta and Shasta-Trinity National Forest. Ideal for solitude seekers, hikers, and history buffs. Best visited June–October when snow-free; nearby trails include the Pacific Crest Trail.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
