Like many of the surrounding villages and communities, Magalia, California was first founded as a mining settlement during the epic gold rush that brought countless migrants to the west coast in search of gold and prosperity. Over its first few decades, the town was referred to as Mountain View, and later on Dogtown before finally settling on the name Magalia. Magalia comes from the Latin word for cottages, a commonly seen sight on the hillsides of this mountain town.

Experience the Great Outdoors

California is blessed with an impressive amount of natural beauty. Between its ancient massive trees, towering mountain ranges, and alpine lakes, you can see it all when you rent an RV in Magalia. Lake Oroville is one of the most visited places in the region, known for having several campgrounds and recreation areas surrounding it. This massive lake has plenty of space to swim, boat, and fish in its calming waters, and offers spectacular views of the sunset and sunrise. Potters Ravine, Craig, Loafer Creek, Kelly Ridge, and Foreman Creek Recreation Areas all enable people to camp out along the lakefront, with some of the most relaxing camping atmospheres imaginable.

RV Parks

Northern California is a popular outdoor destination known for its wilderness recreation, so campgrounds and RV parks can easily be found without too much trouble. Almond Tree RV Park is one of the options, with a cozy atmosphere and welcoming vibes. There is an in-ground pool, a pavilion, a clubhouse, and a large gazebo for guests to make use of during their stay.

City Attractions

Aside from some interesting historical buildings dating back to the mining camp days, Magalia isn’t quite an attraction-heavy destination. The Gold Nugget Museum is within the small city and comes highly recommended. The institution pays homage to the gold industry that spawned many of the towns and cities in the area, and it houses a collection of mining implements and other awesome artifacts.
