Brandy Creek Primitive Campground

Brandy Creek Primitive Campground offers 2 tent-only sites along Brandy Creek in Whiskeytown National Recreation Area, 19 miles west of Redding, with each site equipped with a picnic table, bear-resistant storage locker, fire pit, and vault toilet.

The nearby Brandy Creek Trail provides access to scenic waterfalls and is popular with hikers and mountain bikers, while Brandy Creek Beach (2 miles south) offers swimming and seasonal amenities including watercraft rentals from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Reservations are required via Recreation. gov, camping is limited to 14 days between April 1-October 31, and note that the 2018 Carr Fire left the sites with no shade—bring portable shade structures if needed.
