Mariners Point Group Campground

Mariners Point Loop 1 Group Campground, located where the Pit River and Squaw Creek arms meet on Shasta Lake, offers a tranquil escape surrounded by the breathtaking scenery of Shasta-Trinity National Forest. This campground stands out for its proximity to the lake, providing easy access to water-based activities like boating, fishing, and kayaking, combined with the serene backdrop of dense evergreen-covered hills and views of nearby Mount Shasta. Its secluded setting and lack of amplified sound make it a peaceful retreat for group camping experiences.

All campsites come equipped with picnic tables, fire rings, and grills, ensuring essential comforts for outdoor gatherings. Portable toilets are available on-site, although visitors should note the absence of drinking water and plan accordingly. The campground is just a short drive from Jones Valley, where boat ramps and lakeside resorts offer equipment rentals and other amenities, making it a convenient base for exploring Shasta Lake's 365 miles of shoreline. At an elevation of 1,067 feet, the area’s mild climate is perfect for activities ranging from hiking and wildlife observation to water sports.
