About

Stoney Creek Group Campground sits on the banks of Stoney Creek along State Route 3 in the Trinity Unit of Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area. This group campground is specifically designed for larger gatherings of up to 50 people and operates on a reservation-only basis through Recreation.gov. The site is managed by Shasta Recreation Company (recently purchased by Vista) and offers a scenic, creek-side setting with excellent recreational opportunities. The campground features flush restrooms, potable water from faucets, a group pedestal grill, fire ring, multiple picnic tables, and bear-resistant food lockers. While primarily oriented toward tent camping with no designated RV spurs, the paved parking area can accommodate 1-3 motor homes or trailers. The site is located directly across from the Stoney Creek Swim Area, providing convenient access to swimming and water recreation. Recreation opportunities abound in this beautiful area of the Trinity Alps region. Beyond swimming in Stoney Creek, visitors can access Trinity Lake for motorized and non-motorized boating, waterskiing, and fishing. The surrounding Shasta-Trinity National Forest offers numerous hiking trails and scenic vistas. The campground's location provides a balance of developed amenities and natural beauty, making it an ideal base for group camping adventures.
