    We had a pleasant stay at KOA Mt. Shasta. The check-in process was smooth, and Hanna, the receptionist, was incredibly accommodating and friendly. The place was clean and spacious, making it a comfortable place to stay.

    Al dirt site with a concrete patio table that can't be moved.

    I'm not sure how this place has Holiday status. They have almost no amenities, most of the sites are loose fine dirt with no clear markings for sites. The sites are crammed together. The pool was like an above ground kiddie pool and it was closed anyhow. The game room had a ping pong table with a broken net and nothing else, and it was the hang out spot for PCT hikers. Dirty sites, run down equipment, broken toilets, this place would struggle as Journey, no way this should have Holiday status.

    This is amazing place if you decide to camp near MT Shasta and it is also nearby downtown, which is super beautiful and amazing people btw. The campsite is clean and well maintained. It was super inconvenient for me when we discovered that there was no hot water for showers while it was snowing, but if you have RV than it should not be a problem in case if you have a better shower inside your RV. I strongly suggest to the manager of this camp site to give an heads up after the booking is made so that the campers can prepare in advance.

    This KOA is a convenient stop on your way to Oregon Coast from the SF area. Average but clean gravel campsites and beautiful view of Mt. Shasta from the nearby wooded area. Staff were helpful and prompt in correcting a plumbing problem one morning. There's a city park nearby where you can easily walk to the Sacramento River Headwaters. There's also a small swimming pool at this park. I could only get 2 bars on the iPhone but we were able to use internet pretty well. The bad: Amtrak and freight trains nearby... We stayed two nights total, the first night the trains came at midnight, 3 AM, and 5:45 AM. The second night was midnight, 3 AM, 4:30, 5:00, 5:30, 6:00 and 6:30 AM. I kid you not. Next time I need to stop on my way to Oregon I will try to find something away from the freaking train tracks.

    I have only stayed at one other KOA and that was in Peteluma where I really enjoyed my experience. So when I decided to include Mount Shasta in my road trip, I looked for a KOA nearby. This KOA was pretty easy to find and not far from the main area of town. It is walkable, but is a little bit of a walk. I arrived late with my brother due to bad weather and leaving later than we planned. Due to heavy snow and bad driving conditions, we were stuck on the 1-5 for over 2 hours and just 15 miles away from the KOA. Upon arriving, it was already dark and the office was closed. They left the check in envelope for me near the office and due to heavy snow, I could barely figure out the roads in the KOA. The snow also made it impossible to tell the driveways and which site was which. I had to circle around 3 time to figure it out and when I figured out which was our cabin, I was not sure where to park due to snow so I just made a makeshift parking spot in front of the cabin away from the road, took in our items and called it a night. Entering the cabin, it was nice to see that they left a heater on for us to warm up the cabin. Compared to the other KOA I was at, this cabin felt smaller and shorter than the other cabin I had even though I booked the same type of cabin. This KOA in general was much smaller than the other one I stayed at. However, Mount Shasta is a very small town. There was only one bathroom here and again, the bathroom was much smaller than the other KOA I was at. Normally the bathroom is probably not a far walk, but due to the massive amount of snow, it seemed like an eternity to walk to the bathroom. It was incredibly hard to walk through snow that was up to your knees. I honestly had to take a break walking to the bathroom and at one point I just wanted to lay in the snow and give up lol. It was good my brother and I arrived here the night we did. I believe later that night or early in the morning, the highway we were on was completely shut down to very dangerous snow driving conditions. However, having never experienced this much snow, I did not fully know what to expect. In the morning, my brother and I wanted to venture out to the main town area and check out the shops and everything. We already gave up the idea of trekking up Mount Shasta seeing how dangerous it was to drive. Before leaving, I tried to clear some snow and saw that the roads in the KOA was more plowed than the previous night. The workers were out early clearing the roads for people. However, I got stuck in the the snow. Two of the workers came over and had to shovel out the snow and help push my car out. It took over an hour!! They also helped my put on my snow chains. I was very grateful!! That was more than expected! After that I very carefully ventured out to town only to learn that EVERYTHING was shut down, including the snow park! There was only one pizza place in town open, so my brother and I got pizza and headed back. When I came back, one of the guys plowed me a parking spot in front of the cabin. For the rest of the day, we just hung out in the cabin and played in the snow right at our cabin. To use the bathroom this time, we walked along the plowed road which made it much easier to get to the bathroom. They do have wifi here, but it is spotty, but phone reception does work here. I do wish however, that they had a TV like at the other KOA. Getting snowed in with not much to do, TV would had been nice for some entertainment because you can only make so many snowmans. They also have a dog park area, as well as playground and swimming pool. However, everything was closed due to so much snow. I would stay here again, but when there is no snow. Next time when there is snow and I am in town, I think I want a place with a bathroom inside my room for convenience.

And it's gross and smelly. Many parks pick up garbage daily or have reasonably sized cans spaced around the park. McCloud is noted for its wandering bears but there has to be a better solution... The next day I set out for the trash by the laundry room. I found the laundry room with a sign "Call this number and the office will text the key code. Someone is borrowing too much toilet paper." Really??? A resort this size can't afford toilet paper so the entire clientele have to suffer this inconvenience??? This wasn't for us. Could hardly get thru with one lane. Our neighbors were way too close. Tables were situated behind the rv as no room beside. Everyone had dogs but no fenced area for off lease. The dog park was a dusty trail along the fence next to the highway. Dogs were aloud on the grassy areas and everyone was good about picking up.

We lucked out and were there right before the area was shut down for the fires nearby. We were pleasantly surprised that there were cabins and hookups for RVs right there in the park. We totally could have brought our RV instead of staying in town. It's a small town and if you have never visited a small town with any stop lights, you wouldn't understand where I'm going with this analogy. Lol! Iykyk! We had a great time and do look forward to making our way back to do some more hiking and camping. This park is a must see and a family friendly hike to get to the falls! Fun fact: Burney Falls is never dry, 100 million gallons flow daily, so no matter what time of year you visit there will be flow.

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.

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!

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.)
