Sunset from the boat dock

We had three spots and most were fairly flat. We booked together but unfortunately weren't placed together. Make sure you ask for shade because they either turn off or reduce the power in the heat of the day. It wasn't a huge big deal but definitely something to be aware of going in. The bathrooms and showers were always clean. You have to pay to shower but it's reasonable. You also get one free pump out if you stay 7 days. The camp is clean and well ran. Boat dock super accessible.

Beautiful location. Small camp sites. Rude staff. We were right on top of people. Crying babies and snoring campers was an annoyance at night. The staff could have also shut down parties that went until 1 am. The bathrooms are all "porta-potties" other than one central bathroom. The central bathroom was nice. The showers work and the toilets were maintained to a decent standard. On the second day of our stay the "porta-potties" we're almost overflowing and the smell was awful. My biggest complaint about this campground was actually the staff. On arrival there was a group of teenage girls working the front counter who were a little rude, but not a big deal. The worst one was an older blonde woman. As soon as we arrived we were driving through with our windows down. She yelled at a customer and proceeded to drop an F bomb within earshot of myself and children. Just trashy and unprofessional. The location really is well maintained and beautiful. It's close to town and has everything you need. Had a nice time, and would consider returning.

Cancelled reservation confirmation, yet still charged full price.

This review is for the behind-the-scenes management only. I didn't get a chance to stay. My biggest frustration with this campground was about canceling my reservation in summer of 2020. At that time I was told on the phone that my deposit would be absorbed, in which I completely understood, well sort of. I NEVER actually received an email confirmation when I booked over the phone, back in April. It wasn't until I called in August to, first confirm my reservation since I was already charged the deposit that day I booked, but without an email confirmation (I searched all folders, so it was never sent) I wasn't positive I was officially on their books. They confirmed my reservation and then I asked to cancel. I received an email confirmation for my canceled reservation and was told I would not be charged beyond the deposit. I thought that was the end of that business transaction. Well, that date came and passed and there was an additional charge on my credit card for those days I did NOT stay. They would not reverse the changes when I called them back to inquire saying that I never actually canceled when I had a canceled confirmation in my email. Wow, just wow. Integrity is everything. Hold up to your word and written policies if you want to be known as a trustworthy business.

I wanted to share some information on the North Shore Campground, Lake Almanor, in Chester, California. We booked 4 spots the beginning of the summer for this upcoming weekend arriving on Thursday. California has been hit hard with massive wildfires recently. We have been in contact with them in regards to the situation and they even stated on Friday we can cancel for a $25.00 fee per site or reschedule. We have requested to move all four spots to next year due to the current conditions and they absolutely will not accommodate. As a business owner and I understand the need to have policies and procedures but when it comes to situations such as this, compassion goes a long way. Good business practice would be to have some leniency given the current situation. They have now lost at least 4 families of returning customers. And we have lost $430.00. I do not like to share negative reviews but in this situation, along with how the manager responded it's disheartening. Our family loves visiting Lake Almanor but unfortunately, North Shore has lost any future visits from this group. We are super disappointed and hope that this doesn't happen to others.

See all
