Arbuckle Flat Campground

Arbuckle Flat is a remote, boat-access-only campground on the upper Pit Arm of Shasta Lake, ideal for paddlers and boaters seeking solitude away from crowds.

The facility offers vault toilets and one primitive tent site on a first-come, first-served basis with no fees, but requires a pack-in/pack-out approach and brings your own water.

Access difficulty varies with lake levels—contact the Shasta Lake Ranger Station at (530) 275-1587 for current conditions, and use the nearest public boat ramp at Jones Valley for launch.
