About This Access Site
The North Shore Campground boat ramp provides access to the scenic Lake Almanor near Chester, California. This is a good option for paddlers and small boaters looking to explore the lake. The ramp is located next to the campground and offers a minimal amount of parking, reportedly around 10 spaces for vehicles with trailers.

The campground itself offers a range of camping options, including RV sites with hookups, tent sites, and rental cabins. Facilities include hot showers, a general store, and a fish-cleaning station. While the campground is generally well-reviewed, some visitors note that the campsites can be quite close together.

Lake Almanor is a large reservoir popular for boating, fishing, and other water sports. Paddlers can enjoy exploring the lake's scenic shoreline and coves. The lake is known for good bass and trout fishing. Nearby Lassen Volcanic National Park also provides opportunities for hiking and other outdoor recreation.
