Cave Campground

We stayed here for two nights in Aug 2025. No campground host around. Site 8 gets full afternoon sun and is great if you need solar; otherwise it’s really hot. It was too gusty to put awning out so we roasted in the afternoon. It cooled off nicely at night. The biggest drawback is the highway noise, big trucks passing right out the night.

Site 8 gets full afternoon sun and is great if you need solar; otherwise it’s really hot. It was too gusty to put awning out so we roasted in the afternoon. It cooled off nicely at night. The biggest drawback is the highway noise, big trucks passing right out the night. The site pads are paved which is nice because some other campgrounds in the area are not. The location is great if you want to spend time in the area to explore Lassen NP, Burney Falls, Subway Cave. If you want a great panorama view (and sunset) I recommend a short drive to the Hat Creek Rim Scenic Viewpoint; this is also an area that you will pick up a good cell signal if needed.

Needed to spend a night on the way to Lake Tahoe. To our big surprise all restrooms were shot closed with plywood because there is no camp host. We went to bathroom across the street at Subway Cave trailhead. Only giving 2 stars because place is not bag, has very nice trail by the river. But with no host & no toilets might as well just camp in the wild behind the river for free. There is a bridge... Needed to spend a night on the way to Lake Tahoe.

There is a bridge right before the campground if you traveling from north side.

The camp ground is well maintained and clean. There are vault toilets as well as one bathroom with flush toilets. It is right near the highway so expect to hear traffic. The nicer sites are closest to the creek. I would assume the sound of the creek would drown out the sound of the freeway. The birds and chipmunks are accustomed to visitors. Keep an eye out or they will hop in your vehicle/traile... The camp ground is well maintained and clean. There are vault toilets as well as one bathroom with flush toilets.

The birds and chipmunks are accustomed to visitors. Keep an eye out or they will hop in your vehicle/trailer if you leave the door open too long. Great fishing in the creek. Saw many people coming out with full stringers. A lot of traffic in and out. Many folks stopped to use the restroom as the rest area down the road was already closed for the season. Only rated a 3 due to closeness to the highway and traffic using the restroom.
