Parking in site 1
Robyn B.

Great views. Check in was easy peasy. Site was big enough for our 42 feet. Easy access to gas if you want to pay California prices

Site #1
Lynette M.

Stayed here for a few days so we could see Mount Shasta and the surrounding cities. Staff was as friendly as the name itself states. We had site #1, which might be the best site on the property, in my opinion. Easy pullthru and plenty of space to drive out and pull back in. Not a lot of noise at night except from the truck stop next door. But even that was minimal. Even in july, at cooled way down in the evening time so no need for air conditioning. Overall was a great experience. We'll definitely be back if we're traveling through the area on the five freeway again. Thank you for a great stay!!

The view from our site in the morning :)

I'd rate this place a 3.5 (rounding up to 4 because we had a good stay). I was brand new to RVing and it was the 2nd ever RV park I stayed at. We just needed a one-night stay along our trip through the West Coast. I had an overall good impression of the park during our time here. The site was comfortable and we felt safe but it wasn't as nice as the 1st place we stayed at. This was next to a truck stop and there were tons of trucks all around which isn't the most ideal camping atmosphere overall, but it was outside of the park so we didn't really see them as much (maybe based on where our site was) until we started walking around the area to get food. The bathrooms were good and it was a close walk to food nearby. We enjoyed the beautiful view of Mt. Shasta in the morning as well! The park was quiet when we were there, and we had a good, abeit short, stay.

The back area of the park. Front area has more tree and asphalt pads.

Booked a pull through, full hookup spot last March. As others have said, the road along the final mile is rough & some traffic noise can be heard throughout the night from I-5 above. No biggie. We had a few issues though. We were unable to drive into our campsite due to trees. We have a 30' trailer pulled by a Ford F-250. Pulling in we almost got stuck. We had to back out to drive the wrong way up a one way lane then back into our space. The spaces are small and parked vehicles added to the navigation challenges. Ultimately we made it in and set up camp for the night. Also our wi-fi password didn't work and there was a billing issue. Our Elks Lodge discount price wasn't applied. We weren't able to purchase any of their farm fresh eggs because we couldn't connect with Karen & Jay. Tried contacting them by text, phone and email on our day of arrival and again the next day. Needed to cancel our July 6th reservation we booked for our return. Finally received an email on July 5th acknowledging our cancellation but there was no mention of correcting the billing issue. So we still need to pursue that. We don't want to disparage a family business. Karen & Jay obviously take pride in their campground. Perhaps they were overwhelmed by the upcoming Holiday or perhaps something came up. We wish them well.

We were a bit worried by the road there (lots of fair sized holes) and the weather (California was experiencing a bad heat wave, and it was 105 here), and considered only staying one of our two nights. So so glad we stayed both nights. The wild horses were hanging out the whole time, and much of it in front of our trailer. I'm sure the heat drove them down to the river and tasty lawn. We also saw the blue heron, bats, and two river otters! Baby bird above the men's bathroom. Lots to see and enjoy. This place is pristine and quiet. We'd just come from a gross Thousand Trails and a loud state park. Coming here with the clean (and air conditioned!!) bathrooms and showers was lovely. The hosts were so nice. And it just felt quiet and relaxing, only punctuated by territorial stallions making a fuss. Nice additions are the giant shaded area with picnics tables and Adirondack chairs to hang out in- our space didn't have a tree so the shaded option was much appreciated. This is a way away from us, but we hope to come back and spend more time here. Also- shoutout to the hosts who spend a lot of time cleaning up horse poop to keep the roads clean for us!

It cost about $85 but it was well worth it. The river running through the campground is lovely and they have Adirondack chairs spaced out along it so you can sit and enjoy.

We will definitely be back!

The dining car was a special treat, the meal overall was very good but could have been better with a little attention to detail. The rigatoni pasta dish was absolutely perfect , popping with flavor and as good as any I've ever had. We ordered a couple glasses of pinot noir with our dinner and when they arrived they were noticeably warm like 80-85 degrees like they had been roasting in the sun , not a pleasant room temp like they should be. We also ordered a large caesar salad that we all split and the lettuce was warm like it was sitting in a window soaking up the sun, plate was not chilled and even if it was it couldn't have cooled down hot lettuce, salad was light on dressing , the halved petite romaine was very bitter, i've purchased this lettuce at costco a couple times and stopped buying it because the petit romaine tends to be very bitter, i love the consistency of the smaller denser heads of lettuce but the bitterness is unpleasant .....hopefully the chef is tasting his food and can see what he thinks. My wife ordered the pasta with shrimp and loved it! My dad had the rib eye and said it was pretty good but maybe not 57$ good. The pasta dishes were 10/10 amazing , reasonably priced and generous in size , the warm wine and salad is an easy fix, it was a nice treat after a week of camping and cooking to not have to , so highly recommend giving them a try for dinner during your stay!! Mountain scenery was incredible from the campground!! The pool was a little crowded at times but we enjoyed a couple hours of pool time both days. The host in the campground Frank and his dog Reno were great !! We really enjoyed our visit and wouldn't hesitate to stop in again, a lovely place to spend a couple days !!! Thank you!!!Cheers !!

Breakfast at the dining car was excellent and everyone that works there is friendly and courteous. There were two things, that keep it from a 5 star experience for us.

But it was more the location and grounds. First of all, the grounds. The gravel road is more of a suggestion at this point. It appears well past time to reapply the substrate. It's more compacted dirt than anythingand is probably terrible if it rains heavily. It's advertised as gravel so that's why I mention it. The dog area is dirt with a few bushes. The dogs were more interested in the fence and leaving than playing. All the sites are pull through but you'll definitely need a few leveling blocksIn addition, shade is hit or miss for the RV spots. In the summer, I bet this place can be brutal. The location is what threw me off the most. It's right in a neighborhood with a neighboring apartment complex. Plus, you're about 1000 ish feet from the active Union Pacific Railroad tracks. We heard the train 5 times overnight, complete with horn (required when entering a town). I can't say we'll be back. Like I said, the employees were great but the grounds, noise, and location just wasn't our jam.

First off, our experience with customer service over the phone was always pleasant. They answered our questions, found us the accommodations we needed (we requested an RV spot and cabin) and made the necessary adjustments. Bridget and Patty were awesome! Next, we loved the location: right off the interstate and easy to find. Chevron and Shell, among others are just outside. It's also located next door to the Forest Ranger Station. From here, plenty sights in Shasta and Redding are an easy drive. Third, this RV park is well-maintained and carefully kept in order. It is definitely small compared to many other RV resorts: their sites are tight, they've no individual firepits, grill or camp rings, and there are no other fancy amentities (which is just right for these times of social-distance protocols.) The shared showers and toilets are cleaned daily and garbage bins are rarely overflowing. Some sites have a patch of grass, while others have gravel. Some have sturdy plastic picnic tables; others have wooden ones. All sites have shade from mature trees; which is also great for some nature sounds by the birds as well. There is a nice pet enclosure for the dogs to play and romp around leash-free. There are only 2 cottages and we're so glad we lucked out on one of them for the Memorial Day Weekend. One of my aunts is semi-disabled so it's hard for her to camp out in the heat. The cottages are a perfect complement for a family like ours. All in all, we were so pleased with our stay over the Memorial Day Weekend. The owners and staff are great--very hospitable and respectful. They enforce certain rules and guidances inside the park but it works for a peaceful, enjoyable stay for every camper. We would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves back in the area!

She runs this property like Nazi, which is fine If you don't care about the residence. Apparently the legal owners don't care, or just want to remain in hiding, but anyway its sliced, the current management does not care about its residence who live in the park. Most of them are fearful about speaking out, because universally they fear retaliation, which is a valid concern given her pissy attitude, especially for those who own Mobiles in the park, but I can share this: The manager, Renee, doesn't give a flying fuck about the residence. She runs it like a true Nazi dictator. I am an RVer who is only here on a temp basis, as I refuse to remain under her 'regime'. I am a retired property manager, and I can say I would have NEVER allowed, her hate, or her Nazi tactics at any property EVER! Abrams RV park is a nice place, its beautiful area, but the fact is, it could be run Sooooooooo much better, however, as it stands now, the bathrooms are an embarrassment, the laundry included. I'll attach photos as evidence of what I am saying. Now we are still here in the park, and I fully expect her to retaliate against us in any way she can, but honestly, i'd prefer she owns up to her hate, and recognizes it for what it is, and makes changes, not just for those who live her, but for herself as well. She clearly feels emboldened to continue her tactics, without regard for those how live in the park. Of course I will continue my title search to find who owns the park and will certainly share all this with them. Bottom line is simple: The Abrams RV park could be soooooo much better, and done so with very little costs to the owners, it would just take a better effort put forth by the managers.

Once parked at the lake, you can embark on the moderate trail to Heart Lake. Approaching the lake, the trail is to the left of it and climbs along the lake shore with intermittent views. As you take a gradual but steady climb up, you will start to see views open up and eventually see Mt Shasta itself. Most hikers stop at Heart Lake which is a scenic spot with granite on one side and on the outlet side of the lake for Shasta views. If you're wanting a little bit of a longer hike, when facing the lake, make a right and log hop across its outlet and follow a faint but obvious trail to a rocky outcropping. There you will reach an amazing vista of Castle Lake and Mt Shasta. It's a great spot to have your lunch and take some amazing photos. Take care on the way down as there are some steep drop offs and slippery rocks. Most of the trail is exposed, so I'd go earlier in the day in the warm months. Depending on how far you go, it's 3-4 miles out and back. Wonderful way to have amazing mountain scenery in a short hike. Free parking at the lake and pit toilets (not the best, not the worst I've seen.)
