Description

Overview

This RV-only campground is located at the popular Brandy Creek Marina of Whiskeytown National Recreation Area, 13.5 miles west of Redding, California, and 3.5 hours north of Sacramento. The beach and the launch ramp are located .25 mile away from the campground, which is partially shaded by oaks and pines. The cool, clear waters of Whiskeytown Lake provide endless water activities. Ample opportunities fro hiking and mountain biking are offered by a network of trails.  

Recreation

During the summer heat, swimming, kayaking, sailing, paddle boarding and water skiing are popular on the 3,200 acre lake. Year round, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, gold panning, fishing and picknicking attract visitors. Hunting is allowed during the appropriate season.

Facilities

The campground is on asphalt but has some shade from nearby trees. There are no restrooms, tables, hookups or fire grates. Recreational vehicles, cab-over campers, pop-up tent trailers and fifth wheels must have fully self-contained toilet and wastewater devices to be allowed here.

Natural Features

Gentle breezes from the lake, cooling shade from oaks and pines, and the sound of children playing on nearby Brandy Creek Beach make Brandy Creek RV Campground a relaxing retreat. Whiskeytown National Recreation Area is located where the Klamath Mountains, the Cascade and Coast Mountain Ranges, and the Sacramento Valley meet, creating a variety of wildlife and landscapes.
