About Dekkas Rock

Overview

Dekkas Rock Campground provides scenic views of the mountainous shoreline from the McCloud Arm of Lake Shasta. This group campground offers sites adjacent to the lake and is open for reservations year-round.

Recreation

Hikers can access the trailhead for the 1-mile Hirz Bay Trail at the camp. This trail is for hikers only. The Hirz Bay public boat ramp is nearby and offers access for both motorized and non-motorized boats.

Lake Shasta offers excellent fishing for trout, catfish, Chinook salmon, crappie, bluegill, white sturgeon, brown bullhead and bass. Water skiing is also a popular pastime.

Facilities

The group camp will accommodate up to 60 people. Sites are adjacent to the water, but lake levels drop as the summer progresses.

The facility provides 8 large tables, 2 large pedestal grills, 1 large family barbecue grill, 2 campfire rings and 4 unpaved parking spurs.

An additional unpaved parking lot with 8 spaces is provided for boat trailers and overflow use.

Drinking water and vault toilets are available. Bear-proof food lockers are provided.
