Fawn Campground is a Forest Service campground on the Stuart Fork arm of Trinity Lake, 15 miles north of Weaverville on Hwy 3, within the Weaverville Ranger District of Shasta-Trinity National Forest. It's a base for fishing, hiking and water sports, with 19 campsites, group loops and facilities for both RVs and tents. The site has two group loops, B and C, each holding up to 100 people, along with a small overflow loop A for parking. Each group loop has a group site, bear-proof food lockers, several tables, a group fire grill and a fireplace. The 19 campsites have tables, fireplaces and drinking water, and most spurs can take 30-foot RVs, with some handling 40-footers. All sites have room for a tent. The campground roads are paved, but the spurs are not. For the most comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Weaverville show May highs around 77°F and October highs around 75°F, while July and August average in the mid-90s. Trinity Lakeshore is a hike just 0.1 mile away, and Tannery Campground is about 0.6 mile off. Granite Peak and Rush Creek Lakes are both within about 3 miles.
