Hat Creek Resort & RV Park

Hat Creek Resort & RV Park offers a peaceful retreat in the heart of Northern California's beautiful volcanic plateau region. Located in Old Station, this RV park provides an ideal base for exploring one of California's most distinctive landscapes, where ancient lava flows, pristine forests, and mountain vistas create a uniquely scenic environment.

The Old Station area sits at the gateway to some of Northern California's most compelling natural attractions. The park's location along Highway 44 provides convenient access to Lassen Volcanic National Park, one of the most underrated national parks in America. This remarkable destination features active geothermal features, including colorful hot springs, fumaroles, and mudpots, along with excellent hiking trails ranging from easy walks to challenging summit climbs. Visitors can explore the park's dramatic volcanic landscapes, pristine alpine lakes, and abundant wildlife viewing opportunities. The park is particularly stunning during fall when the changing aspen leaves paint the landscape in golden hues, and in summer when wildflower meadows burst into color.

Beyond the national park, the surrounding region offers exceptional outdoor recreation. The area is renowned for excellent fly fishing in Hat Creek itself, a legendary fly fishing destination known for its wild trout populations. Hiking enthusiasts will find numerous trails throughout the volcanic landscape, offering adventures suited to all skill levels. The nearby Cascade Range provides stunning scenic drives and photography opportunities, while the region's lower elevation volcanic terrain offers cooler summer temperatures than California's valley communities.

Old Station represents authentic Northern California mountain culture, far from crowded coastal destinations. The remote location means peaceful nights under exceptionally clear starry skies, ideal for stargazing and reconnecting with nature. This is the perfect setting for RV travelers seeking genuine outdoor adventure, whether you're interested in geological wonders, water recreation, hiking, or simply enjoying the tranquility of mountain communities. Families, couples, and outdoor enthusiasts will find the combination of natural attractions, recreation opportunities, and small-town charm compelling reasons to extend their stay in this remarkable corner of California.
