Discover the hidden gem of Butte Valley mining district in Plumas County, California, where history and adventure intertwine! Nestled within this picturesque landscape, The Grande Finale offers a unique camping experience. Just a mile from the historic community of Seneca and situated along the North Fork of the Feather River, you can relax, hike and immerse yourself in the storied history of the region. Whether you're a history buff, nature enthusiast, or seeking a peaceful retreat, this camping spot promises an unforgettable adventure. Book your stay now and be part of the legacy! Getting There Property is located ~9 miles down a dirt road in the bottom of a canyon with the North Fork of the Feather River at the bottom of it. Normal sedans should be OK getting down to the property if you drive slowly and are careful. Travel trailers are also fine but you should be cautious taking anything larger than 30 feet. Once you start down the road there is no place to turn around until you are at the bottom of the canyon. Campsites * Two locations to choose from Notes About the Property * There is no cellular reception at the property. * I have used Starlink here in the past and it works great. * A fire in 2021 burned much of the tree coverage. Campsite 1 has very little tree coverage. Campsite 2 is nestled among trees. * The property used to be an operating gold mine. There is old equipment onsite. DO NOT climb or touch any of the old equipment! Activities * Fishing on the river * Gold panning * Hiking - the historic town of Seneca is ~2 miles from the property * Wildlife viewing Rules * No camp fires * Do not touch or climb on any of the equipment onsite * Do not feed any wildlife * Keep all food and trash secure from wildlifeThe riverview campsite is the first camp site on the property. It's perfect for campers with an RV as it's the easiest to access. The river is a short walk down hill.
