Ellery Creek Campground

Amazingly Beautiful forest camping and water sports all in one Lake Shasta

Campground is overrun with poison oak. Bathrooms were dirty. Trash cans were full. Lots of mosquitos and some snakes seen. Watch out for berry bushes as you climb in and out of the lake.

Very pleasant camping experience. We haven't tent-camped in over 20 years, but thought it would be fun to try again. The site was lovely with beautiful large trees and views of the water. Gorgeous sunset! We chose water and electricity. Both were conveniently located. The neighbors were quiet and friendly. The restrooms/showers were great! It got pretty cold overnight, but we plugged in a little electric heater and were cozy in our tent. Dog-friendly. Everyone seemed attentive to their dogs and kept them under close control.
