    Beautiful lake. Bountiful fishing opportunities. No cost to launch you boat…read more Primitive bathrooms available within walking distance everywhere. Always supplied with toilet paper. The town of Chester is about 10 miles away if you need a store for something. The campgrounds are close together. Which we don't really like. Each has a fire ring and grill to cook on. Tons of wood to scrounge for a fire but you'll need a burn permit which are free and good for the entire year. Be sure to secure your food as those cute but pesky chipmunks and squirrels will help themselves. We came before the season was open and it was wonderfully quite.

    What a great forest service campground. We were at the South Campground at site #10 and we had a…read moregood amount of space between us and our neighbor. It wasn't too far from the restrooms and trash either. The drinking water was just across from us and compared to a state park or national park campground, it was pretty quiet. There is a paved hiking trail to Lake Almanor just across the entrance from the South Campground. On an early morning, I took a jog with my 1-year-old while the others were still snoozing and the weather was just perfect at 8:30 AM. Although I found that even for early July, it can get a bit cold in the early morning (1 AM-8 AM) in the tent. So pack extra blankets. There are no showers here, so you will have to find them somewhere else. Overall, this is a great spot to camp if you plan to go to Mount Lassen National Park or surrounding areas. There is a lot of space for the whole family at your campsite.

    We had a positive experience camping at Ponderosa Flats Campground on Butt Lake. We were able to…read moreget a first-come, first-served site that backed right up to the lake, which provided a beautiful setting and easy access to enjoy the water. Overall, it was a peaceful place to relax and we had a great time at the lake. The camp host was a bit gruff and questioned us about how thoroughly we had completed the paperwork, which felt a little unnecessary. We also noticed some inconsistency with enforcing campground rules. The posted flyer asks that dogs remain leashed and that campfires not be left unattended, but the site next to us near the bathroom frequently had their dog off leash and left their fire burning while they went to the beach. Additionally, campers across the campground played music at a very loud volume for extended periods, but it did not appear that they were approached or reminded about campground quiet expectations. Despite those issues, our overall stay was enjoyable. The lake views, location, and experience of camping right on the water made it a memorable trip, and we would consider returning.

    We had the worst experience here. We paid for 5 nights. Twice the water was shut off. The first…read moretime we were not allowed to have a campfire, ( after she sold us two bundles of pine firewood for $20) and the second time we were not allowed to use our propane stove or lanterns and were forced to leave early as a result. The camp host was overbearing and was at our camp moments after we paid lecturing about putting a phone number on the pay envelope and was quite rude about it even though the envelope had no designated spot for a phone number. The host gave us a list of rules which included dogs were to be leashed at all times, no outdoor shower, no electric chainsaw, no using generators off of the blacktop, and on and on. She didn't enforce the no leash rule, but was crazy strict on every thing else. We were the only ones who kept their dog on a leash. She even knocked on our neighbors camper door to accuse him of not shutting the toilet lid in the outhouse. After we left I considered stopping payment on our check but felt we did have a couple good days so instead I contacted them to get a partial refun. My refund was denied stating we left on our own and were not forced to leave. What were we supposed to do? Sit in the dark and starve?
