About
Soldier Meadows Campground is a developed forest campground located in a picturesque meadow near Soldier Creek within Lassen National Forest. The campground features 15 designated sites surrounded by a mature pine and fir forest, offering a peaceful mountain setting at 4,890 feet elevation. Each campsite accommodates a maximum of 8 people and one vehicle, with a fire ring and picnic table provided. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted. Vault toilets are available on-site, but campers must bring their own water as no potable water is provided.

Quiet hours are enforced from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., and campfires are permitted only in designated fire rings. Pets must be kept on leash at all times, and off-highway vehicles may only be used for entering or leaving the campground.
