Antlers RV Park & Campground

65 RV Sites, 39 Tent Sites

Antlers RV Park and Campground in Lakehead, California, offers 65 full-hookup back-in RV sites and 39 tent sites overlooking Shasta Lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with a private boat launch, slip rentals, outdoor pool, and general store five minutes off I-5. Sixty-five back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One category and no guesswork — and 75 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow, which is generous for a lakeside property on sloping terrain. Thirty-nine tent sites, cabins, and trailer rentals round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A private boat launch, boat rentals, and slip rentals open the lake for boating and swimming, with an outdoor pool, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, ping pong, horseshoes, a playground, and picnicking filling the rest. Planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome. Directions southbound: take the second Lakehead exit (702) for Antlers Road / Lakeshore Drive, turn left, right onto Antlers Road at the stop sign, and continue about 1.5 miles. Shasta Lake is California's largest reservoir, and this is one of the few private camping resorts that genuinely overlooks the water — houseboating, bass fishing, and the Shasta Caverns are all here, with Mount Shasta rising to the north. Summer lake season drives demand hard. Reserve well ahead for June through August.

The Retreat at Redwood Shores

58 RV Sites, 13 Cabins, 17 Tent Sites

The Retreat at Redwood Shores in Eureka, California, offers 71 RV sites, three cabins, and 10 tent sites across 10 acres on Humboldt Bay, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 72 feet. Premium, pull-through, back-in, and standard categories join a dry camping tier, with an outdoor pool, mini-golf, and dog park. Seventy-one sites span back-in, standard, premium, pull-thru, and dry camping categories, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 72 feet. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity accordingly, and the dry camping tier gives self-contained rigs a lower rate. Seventy-two feet is generous for the North Coast. Three cabins and 10 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with mini-golf, bocce ball, a playground, dog park, swimming, picnicking, and planned activities filling the grounds. Pets are welcome. Eureka sits where the Humboldt Bay estuary meets the southern edge of the coastal redwood ecosystem — the tallest trees on earth, in the only place they grow. The Avenue of the Giants runs south and Redwood National and State Parks north, which puts the two great redwood drives within reach of a single basecamp. Old Town Eureka's Victorian architecture, the Sequoia Park Zoo and garden, the Humboldt Botanical Garden, Fort Humboldt, and Madaket harbor cruises are all close. Summer is peak on the Redwood Coast, when the fog lifts and the parks fill. Reserve well ahead for July through September.

Coastal Pines RV Resort

59 RV Sites

Coastal Pines RV Resort in Eureka, CA, offers 59 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 90 feet. Sites come in three categories — back-in, pull-thru, and premium pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. At 90 feet the pull-thrus take the longest coaches, which is a genuine advantage on the redwood coast where most parks were built for smaller rigs. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a general store cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. Creek frontage, walking trails, swimming, and picnicking fill the grounds, with wine tasting nearby. Eureka is the redwood coast's principal city on Humboldt Bay, with Old Town's Victorian architecture, the working harbor, the Eureka Boardwalk, Sequoia Park Zoo, and Redwood National Park all within a short radius. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Premium pull-thrus and the summer redwood season book first.

Eighteen pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and high-speed internet, sized to 65 feet. Every site pulling through means no backing after a long drive up US-101 and no unhitching for an overnight. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool and spa anchor the property, with a clubhouse, recreation center, billiards, ping pong, and horseshoes covering indoor and social hours. Walking trails run along the river with fishing, hiking, and swimming from the area, and a playground serves families. Fortuna sits at the southern gateway to the California Redwood Coast, and the corridor north is the reason to stay. Ancient coastal redwood forest, wild Pacific coastline, and Victorian-era fishing communities extend from here through the heart of Humboldt County — one of the most remarkable natural landscapes in the American West, and one that rewards more than a single day. The park serves both US-101 through-travelers and guests basing themselves for the redwoods. Summer is the peak, with the coast staying mild and the parks busy from June through September. With 18 sites, reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

Twenty-one sites run in standard, deluxe, and premium pull-through categories on 30 and 50-amp, all carrying full hookups and sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Cabins serve guests without a rig. A general store, boutique shop, firewood, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a dump station handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the property. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a dog park for pets and horseshoes and planned activities filling out the on-site calendar. The boutique shop is an unusual touch for an interstate corridor park and reflects the resort's positioning above the standard highway stop. Wine and beer tasting are available nearby. Pets are welcome. Orland sits in Glenn County's upper Sacramento Valley, flanked by the Coast Range to the west and the Cascade and Sierra foothills to the east. Black Butte Lake and the Sacramento Valley wildlife refuges give guests reason to extend beyond an overnight stay. The resort operates year-round on the I-5 corridor, serving both through-travelers and longer Sacramento Valley stays.

Ashland's Creekside Campground

7 RV Sites, 24 Tent Sites

Ashland's Creekside Campground in Oregon offers 9 RV sites and 25 tent sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet, open all year. Full-hookup RV sites join a water-only category, with an outdoor pool, clubhouse, game room, sports courts, and creek frontage. Nine sites run in full-hookup RV and water-only categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 40 feet. Read the category carefully — the water-only tier carries no electric or sewer and prices accordingly, which gives self-contained rigs a genuine budget option. Note the 40-foot cap before bringing a larger coach. Twenty-five tent sites, some with power and some without, make this substantially a tent property. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, RV storage, and boat storage handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a clubhouse, game room, arcade, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, billiards, ping pong, horseshoes, corn hole, a playground, dog park, and creek filling the rest. Wine tasting, mountains, a lake, and a national park area are nearby, and the stargazing is good. Ashland is the home of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, one of the largest regional theater companies in the country, which runs most of the year and fills the town. The Britt Music and Arts Festival, Rogue River rafting, Mount Ashland's skiing, and the local wineries round out the calendar, with Crater Lake about two hours northeast. Festival season from spring through fall drives demand. Reserve well ahead.

Blue Lakes Village RV Park

14 RV Sites

Blue Lakes Village RV Park in Upper Lake, CA, offers 14 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. Note the electrical: this is a 30-amp park throughout, so a rig wired for heavier service will need an adapter and some load management, and the 40-foot maximum keeps it to mid-size rigs. Laundry and a bathhouse with showers are on site, and pets are welcome with a dog park. The water is why people book. A fishing pier and a beach give guests direct access to Blue Lakes, which stay private to resort guests — a genuinely rare thing in California — with swimming, fishing, kayaking, hiking, and biking from the property. Upper Lake sits in Lake County, in the wine country foothills north of Clear Lake, directly across Highway 20 from the lakes. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Fourteen sites on a private lake means summer fills quickly — reserve well ahead.

That makes it a practical basecamp for the whitewater, hiking, and natural heritage of the greater Grants Pass and Rogue River region, as much as a convenient stop for travelers passing through. The park serves the I-5 corridor year-round, with summer rafting and hiking season driving the heaviest demand alongside cross-state travel.

Clear Lake Campground

39 RV Sites

Clear Lake Campground in Clearlake, California, offers 36 full-hookup RV sites on Cache Creek with 30-amp service, taking rigs to 40 feet, plus a boat ramp, kayak and boat rentals, and an outdoor pool.

Thirty-six sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp in back-in, creekside back-in, and pull-through configurations sized to 40 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Rigs longer than 40 feet will not fit, and the 30-amp service is worth noting for guests running high-draw appliances. Laundry, restrooms, and showers handle longer stays, and WiFi reaches the property. Water access is the campground's core. A boat ramp gives direct entry to the creek and lake, and boat and kayak rentals are available on site for guests who arrive without their own.

A playground serves families, and hiking, biking, ping pong, and birding fill out the rest. Pets are welcome. Cache Creek carries bass and catfish, and Clear Lake's position on the migratory corridor concentrates birdlife through spring and fall. Note the lake experiences blue-green algae blooms in some summer periods, which affects swimming conditions. Clearlake sits 90 miles north of San Francisco on Highway 20, in Lake County's wine country and volcanic highlands. The campground has drawn returning Bay Area families for seven decades. Summer is peak — reserve ahead, and check current lake conditions when planning swimming.
