Gregory Creek Group Campground, Shasta County, California: 1,067 ft, 1 Sites, Map and Reservations

Overview

The campground is a single loop and is moderately to thickly wooded with a mix of oak and pine trees that provide plenty of shade during the summer (80% + cover). The understory, which consists of manzanita, blackberries, poison oak, tree fern, wild grape and a variety of native grasses and forbs provide limited privacy between campsites. When the lake level is high, the bank is moderately sloped to provide access to the water.

Lake activities include fishing, swimming, motorized and non-motorized boating, and watersports. Each site has a picnic table, and a fire ring.
