Rancheria
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
Tucked under a dense canopy of fir and pine trees, Rancheria Campground is located on the shores of Huntington Lake near the Kaiser Wilderness. This large campground has several walk-to tent sites the rest are standard and can accommodate RVs up to 40 feet. Each site has a dirt parking spur, picnic table, campfire ring, and grill. A pay phone, drinking water and accessible flush and vault restrooms are provided. Some sites have lake views and some tent-only sites are right on the shore and allow for informal mooring of boats. The campground 's location makes it possible to discover all the activities and attractions at Huntington Lake, and it 's an excellent base for further exploration of the Kaiser Wilderness. Campground check-in located at California Land Management Office next to the Eastwood Visitor Center. An on-site amphitheater is used to host campfire programs on summer weekends. California Land Management sponsors a variety of interpretive programs throughout the summer at several locations in the Huntington Lake area. Scheduled programs are posted at campgrounds throughout the Huntington Lake basin, and at the Eastwood Visitor Center. Located nearby is the Billy Creek Guard Station museum, providing historical overviews on Huntington Lake, Native Americans, and the Forest Service. Visit the Eastwood Visitor Center for area information.
