Antlers RV Park & Campground

65 RV Sites, 39 Tent Sites

Antlers RV Park and Campground in Lakehead, California, offers 65 full-hookup back-in RV sites and 39 tent sites overlooking Shasta Lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 75 feet. A single back-in category means every guest gets the same spec, with a private boat launch, slip rentals, outdoor pool, and general store five minutes off I-5. Sixty-five back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. One category and no guesswork — and 75 feet accommodates a long coach with a tow, which is generous for a lakeside property on sloping terrain. Thirty-nine tent sites, cabins, and trailer rentals round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. A private boat launch, boat rentals, and slip rentals open the lake for boating and swimming, with an outdoor pool, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, ping pong, horseshoes, a playground, and picnicking filling the rest. Planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome. Directions southbound: take the second Lakehead exit (702) for Antlers Road / Lakeshore Drive, turn left, right onto Antlers Road at the stop sign, and continue about 1.5 miles. Shasta Lake is California's largest reservoir, and this is one of the few private camping resorts that genuinely overlooks the water — houseboating, bass fishing, and the Shasta Caverns are all here, with Mount Shasta rising to the north. Summer lake season drives demand hard. Reserve well ahead for June through August.

Lakeshore Resort - Lakehead

39 RV Sites, 10 Cabins, 1 Cottage

Lakeshore Resort in Lakehead, CA, offers 39 full-hookup RV sites and 11 cabin and cottage rentals, with 30 and 50-amp service and a mix of back-in and pull-thru layouts. Site categories are straightforward: full-hookup back-ins, full-hookup pull-thrus, water-and-electric back-ins that also take tents, and water-and-electric lakeview sites. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi and a picnic table. The resort is open all year. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, and a dump station cover the essentials, and pets are welcome. Check-in is 2pm for RV guests with an 11am checkout, while cabin guests check in at 3pm and out by 11am. An outdoor pool, a game room and arcade, a bar, and a playground fill the grounds, with lake access for swimming, fishing, and wildlife watching. Lakehead sits five minutes off Interstate 5 in Shasta County, on the banks of Shasta Lake — California's largest reservoir at 29,000 surface acres with 365 miles of shoreline in the Klamath Mountains. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Lakeview water-and-electric sites are limited and book first in summer.

Trailer Lane Campground

14 RV Sites, 1 Tent Site

Trailer Lane Campground in Weed, California, offers 14 full-hookup RV sites and a tent site in the shadow of Mount Shasta, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 65 feet. Back-in, pull-through, and dedicated van camping sites sit directly off I-5 in Siskiyou County, with a general store and laundry on site. Fourteen sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 65 feet, with picnic tables. Dedicated van camping sites serve the growing number of guests traveling in converted vans rather than trailers. A general store handles supply needs after long highway stretches, coin-operated laundry serves extended stays, and WiFi reaches the sites. Arrival is between 2:00pm and 6:00pm. On-site facilities are practical rather than recreational — restrooms, laundry, the store, and a dog park. The campground's position directly on the I-5 corridor makes access and departure straightforward for drivers pulling large rigs through mountain terrain, which is the main reason travelers choose it. Pets are welcome. Weed sits where the Shasta Valley's wide grasslands meet the forested slopes of the Cascade Range, at the foot of Mount Shasta — one of the most visually commanding volcanic peaks in North America. The campground serves both through-travelers using I-5 between the Bay Area and Oregon and guests basing themselves to explore the volcanic landscape of interior Northern California. The campground operates through the Siskiyou County season. Summer brings the heaviest I-5 traffic and the best conditions for exploring the Shasta area. With 14 sites, reserve ahead for summer weekends rather than arriving on spec.

Strawhouse Resorts and Cafe

14 RV Sites, 8 Cottages, 1 Yurt

Strawhouse Resorts and Cafe in Junction City, CA, offers 14 full-hookup RV sites, 8 cottages, and 1 yurt, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 52 feet. Sites come in two categories, back-in 30/50-amp and pull-in 30/50-amp, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with WiFi across the property. The on-site cafe is part of the appeal — this is a resort with a kitchen, not a campground with a vending machine. A recreation center, walking trails, and a dog park round it out, and the property doubles as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. The Trinity River runs along the resort, and that's the draw: fishing, kayaking, hiking, birding, horseshoes, and planned activities, with the river running cold and clear out of the Trinity Alps. Junction City sits in Trinity County, one of California's most remote and most scenically dramatic inland counties, well off the interstate grid. Rates for sites, cottages, and the yurt are on the booking page. Summer river season and fall steelhead runs book earliest.

The Parkway RV Resort & Campground

21 RV Sites

The Parkway RV Resort & Campground in Orland, California, offers 21 full-hookup pull-through RV sites with water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp service, sized for rigs to 70 feet. Every RV site is pull-through — a genuine convenience for overnight I-5 stops — with an outdoor pool, a boutique shop, and a dog park on site, midway between Sacramento and Redding. Twenty-one sites run in standard, deluxe, and premium pull-through categories on 30 and 50-amp, all carrying full hookups and sized to 70 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Cabins serve guests without a rig. A general store, boutique shop, firewood, laundry, restrooms, showers, and a dump station handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the property. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a dog park for pets and horseshoes and planned activities filling out the on-site calendar. The boutique shop is an unusual touch for an interstate corridor park and reflects the resort's positioning above the standard highway stop. Wine and beer tasting are available nearby. Pets are welcome. Orland sits in Glenn County's upper Sacramento Valley, flanked by the Coast Range to the west and the Cascade and Sierra foothills to the east. Black Butte Lake and the Sacramento Valley wildlife refuges give guests reason to extend beyond an overnight stay. The resort operates year-round on the I-5 corridor, serving both through-travelers and longer Sacramento Valley stays. Summer brings the heaviest highway traffic; with 21 sites, availability can tighten quickly on holiday weekends.

The Retreat at Redwood Shores

71 RV Sites, 13 Cabins, 17 Tent Sites

The Retreat at Redwood Shores in Eureka, California, offers 71 RV sites, three cabins, and 10 tent sites across 10 acres on Humboldt Bay, with 30 and 50-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 72 feet. Premium, pull-through, back-in, and standard categories join a dry camping tier, with an outdoor pool, mini-golf, and dog park. Seventy-one sites span back-in, standard, premium, pull-thru, and dry camping categories, carrying water and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 72 feet. Two things to plan around: the sites carry water and electric but not sewer, so manage tank capacity accordingly, and the dry camping tier gives self-contained rigs a lower rate. Seventy-two feet is generous for the North Coast. Three cabins and 10 tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the property, with mini-golf, bocce ball, a playground, dog park, swimming, picnicking, and planned activities filling the grounds. Pets are welcome. Eureka sits where the Humboldt Bay estuary meets the southern edge of the coastal redwood ecosystem — the tallest trees on earth, in the only place they grow. The Avenue of the Giants runs south and Redwood National and State Parks north, which puts the two great redwood drives within reach of a single basecamp. Old Town Eureka's Victorian architecture, the Sequoia Park Zoo and garden, the Humboldt Botanical Garden, Fort Humboldt, and Madaket harbor cruises are all close. Summer is peak on the Redwood Coast, when the fog lifts and the parks fill. Reserve well ahead for July through September.

Mad River Rapids RV Park

12 RV Sites

Mad River Rapids RV Park in Arcata, California, offers 12 full-hookup pull-through RV sites with 30-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet, open year-round on the Mad River's coastal terrace in Humboldt County. A game room with billiards, ping pong, and an arcade, plus on-site dining and a general store, make this a full-service base on the Redwood Coast. Twelve pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30-amp, sized to 70 feet, with picnic tables. The pull-through configuration and big-rig-friendly layout suit large coaches, though note the 30-amp service if you run high-draw appliances. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side, and WiFi reaches the sites. If you provide a mobile number when booking, you may receive up to two text notifications a week; reply STOP to opt out. On-site recreation covers the region's rainy stretches well. A recreation center and game room hold billiards, ping pong, an arcade, and basketball, with on-site dining for meals and a playground for families. The Mad River runs alongside the property, with boating, a golf course, a casino, and wine and beer tasting all nearby. Pets are welcome. Arcata sits about 280 miles north of San Francisco near the junction of the Mad River and Humboldt Bay, where the world's tallest trees meet wild Pacific beaches. The university city has built a distinctive identity around ecological values and independent commerce, and serves both US-101 travelers and visitors drawn to the redwood forests. The park operates year-round, which matters on a coast where many properties close. Summer redwood traffic is the peak — reserve ahead for July and August.

Giant Redwoods RV and Cabin Destination in Myers Flat, CA, offers 58 RV sites and 5 cabins, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 110 feet.

Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. The park is rated big rig friendly, and at 110 feet it will take rigs that almost nothing else on the Avenue of the Giants can.

Horseshoes, volleyball, fishing, and 23 acres of riverfront fill the grounds. Myers Flat sits on the Avenue of the Giants, surrounded on all sides by the ancient coast redwoods of Humboldt Redwoods State Park. Rates by site category are on the booking page. River view sites book first, and big rig travelers should reserve early — capacity like this is scarce here.

Coastal Pines RV Resort

59 RV Sites

Coastal Pines RV Resort in Eureka, CA, offers 59 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 90 feet. Sites come in three categories — back-in, pull-thru, and premium pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. At 90 feet the pull-thrus take the longest coaches, which is a genuine advantage on the redwood coast where most parks were built for smaller rigs. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a general store cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. Creek frontage, walking trails, swimming, and picnicking fill the grounds, with wine tasting nearby. Eureka is the redwood coast's principal city on Humboldt Bay, with Old Town's Victorian architecture, the working harbor, the Eureka Boardwalk, Sequoia Park Zoo, and Redwood National Park all within a short radius. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Premium pull-thrus and the summer redwood season book first.

Riverwalk RV Park

17 RV Sites

Riverwalk RV Park in Fortuna, California, offers 18 full-hookup pull-through RV sites alongside the Eel River, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 65 feet. Every site is pull-through, with an outdoor pool, spa, clubhouse, and recreation center at the southern gateway to Humboldt County's redwood coast. Eighteen pull-through sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and high-speed internet, sized to 65 feet. Every site pulling through means no backing after a long drive up US-101 and no unhitching for an overnight. A general store, laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool and spa anchor the property, with a clubhouse, recreation center, billiards, ping pong, and horseshoes covering indoor and social hours. Walking trails run along the river with fishing, hiking, and swimming from the area, and a playground serves families. Fortuna sits at the southern gateway to the California Redwood Coast, and the corridor north is the reason to stay. Ancient coastal redwood forest, wild Pacific coastline, and Victorian-era fishing communities extend from here through the heart of Humboldt County — one of the most remarkable natural landscapes in the American West, and one that rewards more than a single day. The park serves both US-101 through-travelers and guests basing themselves for the redwoods. Summer is the peak, with the coast staying mild and the parks busy from June through September. With 18 sites, reserve ahead for warm-weather weekends.

At 76 feet the deluxe pull-thrus take long coaches. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, propane fills and exchange, a dump station, and a recreation center cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, with a dog park and a basketball court. The resort's own pitch is about proximity, and it holds up: this is the closest RV park to groceries, shopping, the marina, restaurants, lighthouses, beaches, nature walks, farmers' markets, and the Victorian homes of the area. The resort sits ten minutes east of Crescent City on Highway 199 in Hiouchi, immediately next to Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park — the most intact old-growth redwood grove in the state park system, in a forest that was never logged, on the jade-green Smith River. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Summer in the redwoods books early.
