Burney Falls / Hat Creek KOA Holiday - Hat Creek, California

JenPlaidX

Our family has been going travel trailer camping at Burney Falls/ Hat Creek KOA once a year for the past four summers. We absolutely love this place! It's a cozy little campground with lots of trees and a nice little pond where you can do catch and release. We love the animal petting area where you can give the animals food. Our dogs love the dog parks. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you let them know something needs fixing, like a bench in the dog park. We let them know and someone went over and fixed it immediately. The place is well kept, with clean bathrooms. I do wish the wifi was a little better. You can get wifi next to the main building only.

Nice campground. We went on a holiday weekend so it was very full and rv sites are pretty close together. Very clean. Heads up- the wifi only works by the office/store. We didn’t need it, but if you do need it, that would be a problem. Laundromat was clean, but $3.00 for a wash and $3.00 for a dry. Washers are small. Fine for clothes, but blankets wouldn’t work. The dryer gives you 45 minutes for your $3.00, but our load of towels and jeans wasn’t dry at the end of the 45 minutes. Other than those things, it’s a great campground. Catch and release fishing at the pond, a game room, petting zoo, playground. About 20 minutes from Burney Falls. Worth trying again.

This was our first time staying at Koa Holiday hat creek. We had amazing service Kelly at the front desk was helpful, friendly felt like family. All staff were personable 👋 make you feel at home. We stayed in our motorhome 35ft nice space full hookups, showers and bathrooms were huge extremely clean well maintained. My kids are 1 year old and almost for year old and park was great, they have there bikes and loved all the cement to ride and walk around

Great location to camp at before heading down to SLT, coming from Lassen Volcanic NP.

Very clean, nice and quiet KOA. Not too busy, and very spacious camp sites. Looks like they have a café open on the weekends and some activities for the kids. My son loved the bikes and gaming room. The laundry rooms and bathrooms were very clean.

The only downfall is it's quite expensive to do laundry, 3.50 and 4.50 for washing and drying. I've been to other KOA Holidays and they don't charge that much. And WiFi only worked up near the office.

The park is beautiful. Unfortunately there was no air conditioning in the facilities. It was 98 degrees inside the rec room when trying to play ping pong and air hockey. We asked the different staff members to turn on the air conditioner at least 3 times during our 5 nights there. One went and “turned on” the air for us. It didn’t work so we let them know. We asked a couple of more times since it was so hot only to eventually be told by another staff member that there is no air conditioning on that side of the building. It was extremely frustrating to have been led on about it for so long in such heat and with young kids.

This is the standard all KOA's should shoot for. Very nice clean park with lots of pull-throughs and great back-in spots along the lake/pond. You are not on top of your neighbor and all the sites seemed to have fire pits. The bathrooms were the best I have seen in a KOA and they were clean. There are Kamp-K9's for your pet, play area for kids, and a great loop around the pond to walk and relax.

We stayed here overnight on our way through to Wyoming. The staff was incredible - escorted us to our sites and helped us back in. Laundry facilities were clean and they had ample cold drinks at the store (it was 106 when we arrived!) The wifi only works at the camp host so plan accordingly. But overall a turnkey spot to rest for the night. Sites were large and level. Overall, felt like a forest campground, not a parking lot.

New KOA, right near Hat Creek, about 20 min from the town of Burney and Lassen park.

Pros: Beautiful location in the redwoods, small pond, pretty quiet except for sporadic road noise. Staff are amazing and super friendly. If you love the outdoors, this is a great KOA. Great rec room with a pool table and ping pong.

Cons: Very limited activities, no pool, no playground for the kids. Laundry room wasn't setup while I was here. No cell service, like zero. No wifi except at the store/office.

If you want a resort feel with activities, this isn't it. If you want beauty, quiet and seclusion, it is.
