Manzanita Lake Camping Cabins

About

Situated one mile south of the northwest entrance to Lassen Volcanic National Park, the Manzanita Lake Camping Cabins provide a comfortable base for exploring the park's volcanic features and diverse ecosystems. The 20 cabins come in three models: 2-Room cabins sleeping six ($101/night), 1-Room cabins sleeping two to three ($76/night), and Bunkhouses sleeping eight ($95/night). Glamping tents accommodating two guests are also available at $149/night. All units include beds with firm 3-inch mattresses, propane heater and lantern, fire ring, picnic table, and bear-proof food storage locker. Guests must bring their own bedding and linens. The cabins are adjacent to the 179-site Manzanita Lake Campground and within walking distance of the lake, popular for catch-and-release fly fishing with artificial lures and barbless hooks only. The Manzanita Lake Camper Store offers groceries, supplies, gifts, gasoline, and laundry facilities. Central restrooms with pay showers ($5/person/day) include an ADA-accessible stall. Free WiFi is available at Loomis Plaza, though cellular service is not available in the park. The Loomis Museum and Ranger Station are nearby, offering educational programs and access to over 150 miles of hiking trails ranging from family-friendly walks to challenging summit routes. Kayak and paddleboard rentals are available at the camper store on a first-come, first-served basis.
