What campers say

Alturas Tent Campground is a small, lakefront site known for quiet evenings, clear night skies, paddling, and picnics. Campsites are generally described as clean and pleasant; several reports note the tent and picnic areas are being remodeled, which may produce dust. Facilities are basic — outhouses have been replaced by porta-potties and some visitors found them full or in need of attention — so plan accordingly. The setting away from busy trailers is frequently praised. A good choice for tent campers seeking a peaceful lakeside spot, but expect limited restroom amenities during peak times or renovations.
