Drakesbad Guest Ranch

Hidden deep within the southern reaches of Lassen Volcanic National Park, Drakesbad Guest Ranch feels like a secret passed down through generations. Accessible by dirt road or on foot, this historic retreat is known for its natural hot spring pool, family-style meals, and unplugged atmosphere. With waterfalls, meadows, and geothermal features just steps away, Drakesbad offers a rare chance to experience Lassen slowly—soaking, hiking, and letting the park set the pace.
