The McArthur-Burney Falls State Park is an amazing place to camp and view an incredible waterfall, located just a short hike from where you’ll set up home for the night. Teddy Roosevelt once called the McArthur-Burney Falls the “eighth wonder of the world.” You’ll have to come camp and hike here for yourself to discover why!

The highlight of the McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park is Burney Falls, a majestic 129 foot waterfall.

There’s nothing as awe inspiring as a cascading waterfall crashing into a deep blue pool, and Burney Falls is hands down one of the best places to camp so close to this spectacular natural sight.
