Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights1 site open for every nightA forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.
Boulder Creek Campground sits in the northern Sierra Nevada within Plumas National Forest at about 5,000 feet elevation, on the forested shore of Antelope Lake a small, remote reservoir with roughly 15 miles of shoreline. Pines and firs (Jeffrey and lodgepole among them) crowd the hills around the water, and protected coves draw migratory birds, so the setting feels wooded and quiet rather than open and lakeside; none of the sites are directly on the water, though a few offer limited lake views and most are only a short walk from the shore.










Length limits vary by campsite.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (1,954 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
