Mariners Point Group Campground

Situated at the scenic confluence of the Pit and Squaw arms of Shasta Lake, Mariners Point Group Campground offers a fantastic getaway for outdoor enthusiasts. This federal site managed by the USFS provides a rugged, natural setting within the sprawling Shasta-Trinity National Forest, making it an ideal destination for those looking to immerse themselves in Northern California’s beautiful lakeside wilderness. The campground is open year-round, allowing visitors to experience the changing seasons in this serene environment.

The site is well-equipped for basic outdoor living, featuring picnic tables and fire rings at each location to enhance your camping experience. While the campground does not offer utility hookups, it serves as a perfect base camp for groups of tent campers and RV travelers who enjoy self-sufficient trips. Whether you are looking to spend your days fishing on the water or exploring the surrounding forest on foot, the location offers direct access to a variety of hiking trails.

Water recreation is a primary draw here, with the vast Shasta Lake providing ample space for power boating, water skiing, and fishing. Although the nearest public boat ramp is located six miles away in Jones Valley, the proximity to the water makes this a premier spot for anglers and boaters alike. It is a wonderful choice for families and groups who appreciate a moderate, adventurous camping experience.
