About
Ridgeville Boat-In Campground offers a remote camping experience accessible only by boat on Trinity Lake within the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. Situated on the east point of Mule Creek cove, this primitive campground provides 21 sites for those seeking solitude on the water. The setting allows for excellent fishing, swimming, waterskiing, and scenic views of the surrounding Trinity Alps region. Facilities are basic but functional, with vault toilets and picnic tables available. There is no potable water, so campers must pack in all drinking water and supplies. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no fees and no reservation system. Dogs are permitted but must be kept on a leash of 6 feet or shorter; horses and pack animals are not allowed. Boaters should plan their approach carefully and be prepared for a fully self-sufficient backcountry camping experience. The nearest services are in Trinity Center or Weaverville.
Directions
Accessible only by boat. Launch from a Trinity Lake boat ramp and navigate to the east point of Mule Creek cove.
