Our pup soaking up the sun in the steps.

Its a fun place and the lake with a view of Mt.Shasta is breathtaking. We stayed in the small marina cabin. Its small and yes there are bugs. The cabin is not for small kids or people who rub their hands along walls. None of the wood is finished or sanded so splinter heaven. It is dirty and stains around the walls. We loved staying a cabin here, we have always done tent sites before so even though the price is more than I think it should be for the condition of the place we still preferred a cabin over the campsites. It is a bit over priced in my opinion. A small bundle of wood was $15. The stay per night was $187 plus an extra $10 for our 11yr old and $5 for a dog so a total was $368-ish for two nights. They do charge for anyone over 10yrs to stay at the cabins even though the cabins say the hold 4-6people. They charge for more than two people.

Our annual visit for the past three years. Writing another review due to the fact the Yelp listing has changed. Previously under Reynolds Resorts. Check-In is quite simple and fast. You'll receive the warning of bears but have not seen one yet. Continue to practice prevention is highly recommended. Many things to do such as fishing, kayaking, swimming, and a 7 mile hike around the lake. Family oriented campground. To avoid crowds reserve between Sunday to Thursday. Tent or RV full/partial hook-ups are available. Campground is ridiculously large with so many sites available. Our stay was detoxing and an absolute glamping experience. Grab a soft serve at their convenience store and a few rounds of beer next door.

Dog is my copilot.

This review is specifically about the boat rental experience we've had at this resort. We don't have any experience with the camping or beach facilities. Lake Siskiyou is a treasure. It's a calm, smallish, swimmable lake at the base of Mount Shasta. We've been coming to this lake for many years to rent a patio boat for our small family (and dog). The customer service has always been top-notch from check-in to docking the boat after a few hours on the lake. We've always reserved in advance, usually for the July 4th weekend, and have had no trouble finding parking, getting help, or launching our boat from the dock. The dock crew is pleasant and friendly. The fact that they let us bring our dogs on the boat (for a fee) was a huge plus. They even have dog lifejackets, if that's your thing. There is a fee to enter the resort (a small amount per person).

We love it here and had a wonderful experience, leave all high expectations at home thinking to come here with perfect experience. The staff here is understaffed doing their absolute best that they can with a smile on their face to tend to you. I blame the bad campers that come along trashing the place and treating it like your home. Remember its only your home for a bit but that doesn't mean trash it and go home expecting someone else to clean it, their not your momma! Hats off to the staff here even being overwhelmed and understaffed handled everything well. Hats off to the lady at the bait shop I think her name was Kathy absolute kind hearted person, the girl at the general store that needed to repeat herself to I dont know how many people that the ice cream machine was down and lastly the guy with the microphone at splashzone needing to be stern with groups not listening to his commands of getting off the water for the next group to be able to go. The guy needed to repeatedly asked the same group that times up to now leave and the next group cannot go until they get off, again bad campers not the staff. Do better and leave your high expectations at home and at times help out if you can like pack out what you packed in, leave the place nicer than how you came in. Do your part!

Had a great time at Lake Sis! Our campsite was clean & quite large for 11 of us. The best part was that we didn't have any nearby neighbors! Showers & bathroom facilities are well kept & cleaned regularly. The staff were all friendly & security passed by about every hour. They don't have any bear boxes so we did have to leave our food out but fortunately no bears/coyotes broke in. The lake was nice & the 7pm movie nights are a cute touch -- just bring your own chairs because those seats are not comfortable. We'll definitely be coming back here to camp!

Would give this place a 3 star because it isn't year around; wanted to go paddle boarding but it isn't available. However we got a boat and the crew assisting us was amazing; they saved the trip!!!

I have been camping here with multiple families for the last 9 years every summer and spent thousands of dollars at the grille store, boat dock and main store where you get ice and icecream. We have never been approached in such a disrespectful and unprofessional way until this camping trip. The security guy named cody woods needs to get proper training on how to interact with guests and learn how to deescalate situations. We already deal with the discrimination from the locals so we don't need it from the employees too!

The showers

We stayed here over the 4th of July weekend and let me tell you, NEVER AGAIN!! The bathrooms were deplorable. The showers left our group feeling even more dirty than we were before our showers. The bathroom/shower to camper ratio was waaayyy off. Plus, the campers around us were loud and extremely rude. No one observed the quiet hours with people partying into the early hours of the morning then the early risers were up with the sun blasting their music. There are no bear boxes so all of our food bins/ice chests had to be picked up and put into our vehicles every night. For as much money as we spent on this trip and how many people they pack into this campground they really need to make some upgrades and put in some bear boxes. The area is gorgeous and it's a bummer that this place is run so poorly because it has the potential to be beautiful.

Great place to camp, lots of trees and campy goodness with some great amenities that make it extra…read morespecial!! We stayed two nights and really enjoyed the campground. 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. First the pillows on the bed were too small for a king bed and uncomfortable. Second, that spa/hot tub didn't work which was disappointing.

They have full hookups, a bathroom/laundry, and a dumpster. This is a mobile home park with many permanent residents. This location is cash only and we paid 40$ for our site. None of this should be a surprise based of freely available information, but here is what is. The live in site Manager Jessica is an absolute GEM! She was friendly, easy to work with and extremely organized. We arrived late at night and she walked out to greet us with a smile. Super easy to pay and sign in, easy to access sites. As of late Feb their bathroom has 2 working showers and 1 working toilet. This wasn't a problem for us but on a busy weekend it may be worth nothing. The location here is a 3.5, the host is a 6/5. Would not hesitate at all to visit again as a pass through or 2-3 day visit. THANK YOU AGAIN Jessica!!!

You guys did an amazing job letting all the grass die on the property. Thanks for every time you ignored our concerns. It's so cool how you guys don't clean anything up around here. We like to congratulate Corey our new manager for being the worst manager we've ever had ! We like to thank him for all the phone calls he never answered. We'd also like to give him a BIG shout out for all the stuff he never fixes when he says he's going to and keeping are park looking like crap.

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.

We needed some low hanging branches removed and, Nick was there in minutes with a pruning saw. He helped me back-in and get positioned so I could get my slides out without a problem. It snowed the night we were there. The next morning, the snow had turned to ice. My slides were frozen in place. I was stuck. I went up to my roof to survey the situation. Thick ice, was jamming my slides in place. I spent the next hour or so doing everything I could to clear the ice away. After working with every tool and idea I had and countless trips up and down the ladder to see if the slides would operate I was nearly exhausted and I had gotten nowhere. I called, Nick and asked for his help. He was there in minutes with good ideas and the tools to implement them. A couple of hours later, my slides clear of the ice. Nick and I said our goodbyes. Lucy the wonder dog and I were on our way. I might still be there if it wasn't for, Nick. As to the trains, I heard them but they weren't so loud that they disturbed my sleep. Maybe I'm just accustomed to their sound now. That said, I've stayed at dozens of campgrounds, RV Resorts, and RV Parks over the past 5 years. The majority of them were as close or closer to RR tracks as, Cedar Pines is. Dunsmuir is a hidden gem. I met a few of the locals. They went out of their way to be kind and helpful.

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.

From the guest services to the camp host this place has excellent amenities and staff. Very clean…read moreand well maintained facilities.

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!

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.
