About

The McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial Cabin Area offers 24 rustic cabins within one of California's most scenic state parks. These one and two-room cabins provide basic shelter without electricity or running water, offering a no-frills camping experience for visitors who prefer a roof over their heads. The cabins are situated in an evergreen forest setting near the park's centerpiece, the spectacular 129-foot Burney Falls, where 100 million gallons of water flow daily from underground springs. The park's location in the Cascade Range and Modoc Plateau provides access to five miles of hiking trails, including a section of the Pacific Crest Trail. Lake Britton offers boating, fishing, and swimming opportunities during the warmer months. The cabins operate seasonally and are closed during winter months. During the regular season, reservations can be made up to six months in advance through ReserveCalifornia. Between Labor Day and mid-May, cabins are typically available on a first-come, first-served basis when open. Visitors should note that the park experiences extremely high visitation from April through October, with weekends often reaching capacity. The park has a 32-foot vehicle length limit and pets are not allowed on trails or beach areas. Amenities available in the park include a general store, restrooms, showers, RV dump station, and boat rentals during the regular season.
