Don’t come here unless…

You’ll be getting dirt out of your clothes for a week. It’s more like volcanic ash or clay ash… it’s super sticky and it’s very sunny during the day in the summer. There’s no flat spots for a tent. There’s a lake access which seemed nice, people were swimming. The road isn’t paved so every time someone drove by there would be a massive dirt cloud covering your tent and chairs, food, drinks… the bathroom was really dirty and there was no garbage cans. So expect to pack out everything home. The lake is beautiful and the campsite would be awesome if they paved the road and fixed up the bathroom. I’d recommend if you have a trailer or a small RV!

Nice spot next to Lake Britton

Pit toilets available. There are a few level spots for camp trailers. Right next to the lake with a little beach available. A favored local spot.

On the water

I last minute drove up to the Redding and Burney area to hike and see spring waterfalls in the area. I wanted a quieter campsite to relax at so Dusty was just right. It’s right on the water and soo pretty and relaxing. Each site had a fire pit which was nice though I didn’t use because I was by myself. There was also a picnic table at each site. The bathrooms were pit toilets and well the usual camp bathrooms. The campground is right down the road from Burney Falls so I woke up early and got there before the crowds arrived! The drives in the area are absolutely gorgeous! Another perk of this campground is the railroad/bridge that was featured in the old movie Stand By Me is walking distance from the campsites - it‘s closed off and no longer in use but cool to check out!
