Gurnsey Creek Group Campground

Clean basic campground. Nice host. Has a lot of large flat sites, good shade, and doesn't seem like a "party" campgound. Not super easy to get into the creek but good enough. You can drive to nearby Deer Creek for better swimming. We would stay there again but there's not much to do near the campground... the nearest hikes seem to be through burn areas (we tried the PCT section nearby). Close to t... Clean basic campground.

This is a good campground for a short visit. You are in between Lassen Volcanic National park and lake Almanor. The creek is year round but has no fish. You can go about 2 miles away and fish in Deer creek with better success. The vault toilets were clean and the water from the spigots was good.

First day there setup camp and went exploring on my mountain bike with my dog. Got back about 3 hours later and someone had stolen everything but my tent. Sleeping bag, air cot, cooler with all my food, even the dog’s food. I normally do dispersed off grid camping but decided to “glamp” to get an early start at Lassen N.P. 2nd day of a 5 day trip and had to do the 5 hour drive home instead becaus... First day there setup camp and went exploring on my mountain bike with my dog. Got back about 3 hours later and someone had stolen everything but my tent. Sleeping bag, air cot, cooler with all my food, even the dog’s food. I normally do dispersed off grid camping but decided to “glamp” to get an early start at Lassen N.P. 2nd day of a 5 day trip and had to do the 5 hour drive home instead because I had no gear left. Two things to note it is the middle of October and I was the only person at the campground which honestly I prefer. Secondly this campground is right off the main highway through to Lassen from Chester which increases the risk of this sort of thing.
