Campground Overview

About CATAVEE Campground

Catavee Campground, located on the shores of Huntington Lake near Lakeshore, California, stands out for its tranquil forest setting, varied campsite views, and access to premier outdoor recreation. With a blend of dense pine and fir canopies offering privacy, as well as select sites overlooking shimmering lake waters or the gentle Bear Creek, this campground delivers a quintessential Sierra Nevada hiking and camping experience.

The campground features 24 paved campsites, suitable for tents, trailers, and RVs up to 30 feet, each outfitted with picnic tables, fire rings, grills, and bear-proof food lockers. Essential amenities include flush toilets, drinking water, and trash collection. While basic in its offerings, its proximity to Huntington Lake enriches the experience with activities like fishing, sailing, swimming, and boating. Surrounding trails, such as those leading to Rancheria Falls and Indian Pools, grant easy access to the natural splendor of the Kaiser Wilderness.

The area's attractions include the nearby Billy Creek Guard Station Museum and a marina for aquatic adventures. It's an ideal base for weekend getaways or extended stays for those seeking serene mountain landscapes and access to outdoor activities in the Huntington Lake basin.
