Algoma Campground (Cg-F) is a Forest Service site in the McCloud Ranger District of Shasta-Trinity National Forest in California. It sits within the McCloud area, and the Upper Mccloud River hike starts just 0.1 mile away, making it an easy pairing for a day on foot or on the water. The site has no fees, and the only amenity is vault toilets. That makes it a simple base for a short outing rather than a full-service campsite. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Mccloud show May highs around 71°F and October highs around 71°F, while July and August average near 90°F. The McCloud River, about 1.5 miles away, offers canoeing. Cattle Camp Campground is about 3 miles off, and the Great Shasta Rail Trail: Hambone Branch is about 4.2 miles away. McCloud Area Recreation, roughly 5.3 miles out, has river fishing.
