    A nice place we found to picnic for a few hours on the lower falls area.
    Sadig A.

    Wow... this is a place that has to be visited if you're in the area or heading to Oregon/Washington like we were. It's a great stop along the way, but it is a bit of a drive away from the main freeway, so make sure your gas tank is filled and you know where you're going to lodge for the night in case it gets dark. Burney Falls is really beautiful and the pictures don't do justice. It wasn't too packed and we did find an area to chill for a few hours before we headed back in the road. Highly recommended and if you've got kids, they'll really love it... just bring snacks/drinks or they'll get feisty. We couldn't find any stores around except for the Walmart many miles away.

    The falls are amazing! The hike to the falls is only less than a mile walk from the parking lot. You can get fairly close to it too. Drones are allowed here as well.

    The falls are absolutely gorgeous and a must see!!…read more We arrived around 1000 on a Friday where we had to park in overflow, so I suggest to go early. They have a gift shop that sells softserve icecream so we grabbed one of those and talked to the store clerk who also runs the marina where he explained the boating and kayaking options, fishing, etc. Afterwards we hiked the paved path down to the falls. The path has an incline and is wet in some areas so exercise caution as we saw someone fall and bust her knee open. The falls are so beautiful from every angle, and very worth the trip! After taking a ton of photos we walked on another path that took us to a cool bridge crossing the river. Then headed over to the marina area and rented a kayak for 4 hours for $85, which is great price honestly. The guy at the boat rental area was very nice and accomodating. The sun was out in full force so take your sunscreen! We fished and caught a few small mouth bass but nothing we could keep. After we turned in our kayaks we found a picnic area and grilled up some food. Overall we really enjoyed our day at this park and highly recommend!!

    This is my second trip to McArthur Burney Falls. Easy access and available parking today, 09.17.25…read moredue to it being the end of season/fall. $10 entrance fee, accept cash or credit cards. I actually received a $1 back as in a senior. I dislike that dog access is limited to parking lot, and observation area. Not allowed on stairs leading down to base of falls, on trails, posted properly. I understand people don't clean up after their pets plus you never know how dogs will interact. Their park, their rules. I love the rule that doesn't allow you to leave your dog(s) in the car, kudos. I think these dog rules apply to all California State Parks. Beautiful falls, great fall weather, friendly rangers.

    Great place to stay if you are visiting Burney Falls, about 25 minute drive from the campground…read more Bathrooms were nice & clean and staff was so friendly. It's a little close to the main road so you will get a little noise in the morning, but every evening was super quiet. The pond is nice to look at but also a mosquito breeding ground so make sure you are ready with bug spray , citronella and bug screens on your RV doors. Thanks for the hospitality- Cheers!!

The office store is well stocked and also has a restaurant that is open weekends in the offseason. Check with the staff for hours during the summer months. Part of the office includes a kitchen, game room and a giant big screen. Pool, air hockey and table tennis awesome. They don't only have a restaurant ,they have one with fantastic food. Take a night off from cooking and stroll over to enjoy the fare. But the best part of our time there was the staff. Everyone was helpful and courteous. My wife had a zoom guitar lesson, so Kevin showed us where she could setup in a quiet private space. He didn't have to be so nice but of course he was. This is an example of how everyone treated us. Thank you all. We will be back for a visit real soon.

    I spent the past four nights here, and it was very quiet, dark, and peaceful…read more Quiet with the caveat that there was a TON of train noise. But if you like white noise, that might be a plus. This was the darkest campground I've ever camped at so far. The view of the stars was great. The cold was on another level. I wouldn't recommend tent camping unless you really know what you're doing. Theoretically, this campground has free showers, but they are closed for the season. I couldn't help but notice that the windows have been broken into and boarded back up. There was theoretically potable water, but it tasted a little funky. Most of the pumps were broken, which made it seem like maybe the rest are about to be determined to be broken soon. There was an electric outlet in the bathroom with a sign warning not to leave personal items. In site 25, which is reserved for PCT hikers, I found another sign warning that items are frequently stolen from the bathrooms, and to use the outlets hidden in the amphitheater instead. (There is also a Starbucks about fifteen minutes away in Shasta.) A trail behind site 25 leads to the PCT, but the trail was currently full of fallen trees and hazards. Another trail near Vista Point turned out to be a safer route to the PCT. A 2 mile trail leads from the campground to Vista Point, where you can either keep hiking, or take in the panoramic views of Mt. Shasta, Castle Crags, and the Gray Rocks. I chose site 38 to camp in, which was at the end of the line of sites that are currently open. The first two nights, I paid with the self serve envelope. The rest I purchased from the Ranger Station. Camping was only $25/night, half off with qualifying passes. So it only cost me $50 to stay here 4 nights. The spaces on the main road were huge, and very well spaced. There was a camp host on duty on site 20, and maintenance came through every day to clean the restrooms and empty the trash. I didn't see much wildlife except for a lot of birds. Wildflowers were just beginning to bloom on the trails. There isn't much to do near the campground, but I found this to be a great place to have some relative peace and quiet for a few days.

    We opt to hike up to the Castle Dome. It's a gorgeous hike especially the snow cap view of…read moreMr.Shasta and the fall foilage! A must hike

    The campground all around was pretty clean and maintained…read more A small beach area is next to the check-in, and a dock area is on the opposite end. The rocks are along the water in a good portion of the spots around the lake. We camped over the 4th of July holiday and found there to be only a few issues that didn't make the stay a complete hit. The spiders in the area were so bad. Harmless, but man, everything seemed to get spiders on it, and we brought some home. The power was out one night until midnight and then the campground cut power around 3:00 until 7:00ish a few of the days. We took the full hookups seriously and didn't bring a backup generator. We highly suggest brining one or solar panels to get you by during the extra hot portions of the day. Also, an additional note. They offer tent spots and cabins at North Shore Campground. We had access to one of the cabins during our stay, which were very nice.

I had to overlook the trump and thin blue line flag for the weekend but upon…read moreexiting and seeing the "Put Your Bidens Here" sign at the dump station I was angry and disgusted. Also, the camp grounds are on top of each other and they don't enforce the leash rule for dogs in camp. I had aggressive neighbor dogs invade our camp and they continued to leave them unleashed. Didn't have a bad experience with the management as I didn't have a reason to talk to them. Overall, I have a negative opinion of this camp and won't be back.
