Trinity Lake California camping is simply more beautiful and more fun on KOA's 90 wooded acres at the north end of Trinity Lake. Just one and a half hours west of Redding, California this outdoor paradise is the perfect place to hike, fish and enjoy world-class whitewater rafting. In fact, you'll have easy access to both Trinity Lake and the Trinity Alps. This campground is Big Rig Friendly with beautiful wooded campsites that are perfect for the family. We offer pull-through RV sites as well as back-in sites with room for a campfire. The tent sites are spectacular. Just ask our return campers.We offer boat rentals and boat slips for our campers to reserve. Since we are located next to the beautiful Trinity Lake, your boat is just a short walk away. Besides the on-site amenities listed above we also have 4-wheel bikes, basketball, ping-pong tables, shuffleboard and more. No Trinity Lake vacation would be complete without getting on the lake.

Our fun and friendly staff will help you with a boat slip, boat rental, or show you just where the fish are biting and you won't even need a boat to get there. Our staff can show you just where the hiking trails are, the swimming holes are hidden, and where to begin your ATV adventure. KOA makes Trinity Lake camping an unforgettable experience. No other Trinity Lake campgrounds provide you with a heated pool, propane and gasoline sales, laundry facilities, on-site restaurant, on-site full service store, and spectacular lodges. Ready to call it a night . . . or would you like to see an outdoor movie; see a skit performed by your fellow campers; enjoy singing; or sit by a campfire and toast some marshmallows? The wonderful national forest setting is perfect to enjoy family camping at its best. Looking to expand cultural opportunities? Visit nearby Weaverville, California and visit the Jake Jackson Museum to see rare firearms, paintings, books and artifacts from Trinity County's early days. You can also visit the Weaverville Joss House State Historic Park, the oldest continually-used Chinese temple in California, or visit one of the many galleries, coffeehouses and new performing arts center.

Meet Your Hosts

Hi! My name is Barb Fallon but my friends call me Barbie and I hope you will too. I hail from the mid-west and migrated south after school. Growing up in the emerald necklace that surrounds Cleveland, Ohio gave me my love of hiking, biking, and all forms of water sports. Summer there meant camping… mostly in the Ohio Valley or the Allegheny Mountains. Later in Florida, we had an annual Halloween camping trip with 30 of my closest friends at what in now Wekiva Falls KOA.

I would go as far as to say most of the vacations throughout my life have involved camping of some sort… from primitive hike in/hike out to the luxury of an RV motor home or camping cabin.

One of my fondest memories is of a 7 day bicycle camping trip from Gainesville, FL to Gainesville, GA. Without a doubt the Georgia Mountains are great… but it is people that camp make a trip wonderful. Six days in, after a particularly rainy and tiring day of peddling up the road, we set up camp in the Oconee Nat’l Forest. Our camping neighbor found out it was my birthday and built me a campfire cake. (Fire wood is not something you carry on a bicycle) Cozy and warm, we toasted to my birthday, to our new friends, and a few marshmallows. I still keep in touch with them to this day.

I am absolutely ecstatic to be joining the Trinity Lake KOA team in the majestic California Alps. The Lake + The Mountains + The Trees = one Spectacular KOA campground!
