Mt Lassen/Shingletown KOA

NV Patriot

We have stayed in dozens of KOA's in our 30+ years of RV travels. Back in the day when we had small children we would have been thrilled to stay here as it is entirely kid and family oriented. But then, we had a 14' tent trailer! Having traveled for hours on end and hundreds of miles on our way home to Nevada, we were hoping for a nice easy access and quiet pull through for our 38' fifth wheel. First of all, our $99 site was extremely hard to access given the massive cluster of vehicles in roadways, "add-on" cluster tents, lean-to's, etc. The tight area we were located looked more like a homeless encampment than a $100.00/night RV park. For the price, it would have been reasonable for an employee in one of the several golf carts to escort our large rig through the numerous obstacles and obstructions to locate our site. In our case we were forced to circle the maze of congestion, vehicles and unattended children playing in the roadways. We did attempt to ask for help from an employee watering down the dusty roads but were ignored. After several aimless tours of the park, someone finally moved one of their several vehicles which gave us somewhat limited access to our space. Learning from this nasty experience, we were up around daybreak to get out without additional chaos. Even then with people parking within the roads, it required a bit of work to miss their cars on the road without scraping trees. Sorry, we expected better.

We stayed 2 nights at Mount Lassen KOA. The nicest gentleman escorted us to our site. This campground was beautifully wooded and our site was very large with a fire pit and a picnic table. There's a really nice pool and clean bathrooms. The sites meander their way through the forest and are not stacked directly next to each other like a parking lot. It was 9 miles from the North Entrance Visitor Center, Loomis Museum, and Manzanita Lake. Lassen Volcanic National Park was wonderful and this is a great place to stay!

This is our first time staying at a KOA on a recommendation from our neighbors, and this was our first stay at this location. This was just absolutely the best experience camping. They have an area for kids to ride bikes with hills and a trail. They have a fenced in dog park with obstacles. They have a golf area for kids and a spot to build forts out of trees. They have a pool and laundry facilities. The bathrooms were always clean and the showers were always hot! AND FREE!!!! the wifi was the best....mine isn't even that good at home lol. The maintenance guy was absolutely amazing with telling us about the place and he just absolutely loves working there. The lady that checked us in was super friendly and nice. We arrived a day early and it was not an issue. The campsites were clean and the restrooms were a short walk away. I will definitely stay here again. It was also quite and relaxing. Thank you for making our first stay memorable....now we're on our way to our next KOA in Jerome Idaho then on to Yellowstone.

One of the nicest KOA campgrounds I have stayed at. Very well kept up with a myriad of activities geared towards families and large groups. It is situated in a beautiful forest of conifers. The parking spots are gravel and mine was level. The hookup worked fine. I used the bath, laundry facilities, and pool - all very nice. It's a short drive to the Lassen Volcanic National Park entrance. Highly recommended for a visit to this beautiful park.

Located just outside Lassen Volcanic National Park, it was perfect for our one night stay. Restrooms were clean. We also took advantage of the laundry room. There were tons of things to do but unfortunately it was rainy so we spent most of the evening in the RV but would highly recommend.
