Gooseneck Cove Boat-In Campground

Gooseneck Cove is one of four boat-access only campgrounds on Shasta lake. Located on the upper Sacramento arm of the lake, this facility is very popular. Whether or not the access is difficult varies depends on the current lake level. There are vault toilets and no piped water. This is a pack it in, pack it out facility.
