Public campground reservations
You can reserve a campsite or check availability at
RECREATION.GOV
How to reserve a campsite - Recreation.gov
NOTE: After you click the link above you will see a form. Enter SHASTA-TRINITY -FS as the "facility name" in the form. This will give you a list that includes "reservable" campgrounds at Shasta Lake (Simply entering "shasta-trinity" should work also).
If the form asks you where the campground is near please select "Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity" from the pull-down menu of options.
After you are shown a list of campgrounds, click on the campround's map link to make sure it's in a location that's suitable. The list may show campgrounds located in areas other than Shasta Lake.
IMPORTANT: When asking the Recreation.gov operator about available camping at Shasta Lake it's best to give a specific campground name.
If you don't have a specific campground in mind, or know any of the names, you can ask about available campgrounds in the "SHASTA-TRINITY" area. You must ask the Recreation.gov operator for "SHASTA-TRINITY" campgrounds because the words "Shasta Lake" and "Lake Shasta" aren't searchable in their database.

Distance to the water from the public campgrounds
The following Adobe Acrobat/.PDF file shows the minimum distance from a campsite to the waters edge for various lake elevations and
drawdowns. The distance is computed by measuring the distance from the closest campsite in the campground to the
closest shoreline. In nearly all cases the actual distance one must travel will be farther.

Note: To use the link above you need to know the "elevation" or "drawdown" of the lake. To find the "drawdown" of the lake, you simply subtract the current elevation reading from 1067'. This will tell you how far the lake
is from the top. To avoid the math you can click here for the current drawdown information
