We have been camping in Plumas County, CA for years. It is by far our family’s favorite camping destination. This summer we spent ten days camping in the area. Our last trip there we set up base at Bucks Lake, but took a day trip to the Feather River to enjoy the awesome, and usually deserted swimming holes there. Click on the link above for more information and pictures. And if you're ever in Northern California in the summer, don't miss the wonders of Plumas County.

Take a family vacation to Lake Almanor, California. Plenty of warm calm water for swimming, boating, fishing, and skiing! Don't forget to bring the dogs! Where to eat, best fishing tackle and much more can be found within this lake shoreline family summer vacation guide! The water is perfection as the summer lake-surface temperatures reach seventy-five degrees! You will enjoy the Lake Almanor Recreational Trail as it weaves you along the edge of the west shore of the lake; an easy, flat, 9.6-mile paved route for biking, walking, (and cross-country skiing, when winter comes around).
