Mill Creek

Welcome to Mill Creek, a serene mountain community nestled in the heart of Northern California’s Cascade Mountains at 5,000 feet. Located near the south entrance of Lassen National Park, Mill Creek offers a peaceful escape surrounded by towering pines, firs, and cedars, alongside the vibrant colors of birch, oak, and dogwood trees.

Whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or looking to settle in, Mill Creek has something for everyone. Our resort offers cozy cabins and campgrounds.  At the heart of our community is a dedicated group of volunteers who ensure that our roads, water, and shared spaces remain pristine and welcoming.

Mill Creek is a place where tradition meets nature, with cabins passed down for generations. If you’re new here, you’ll quickly feel at home amidst the charm and history that make this place so special. We invite you to explore, relax, and become part of our close-knit community!”


Our community has a volunteer board (Mill Creek Summer Homeowers Association -MCSHA) who give their time and talents to keep the common areas clean, the roads usable and to handle other issues that arise within the community.  You can read our Bylaws and the Covenant, Conditions and Restrictions here.   Any cabin owners who are or intend to rent their cabin must submit a  rental notification.

Any changes, repairs or updates to a cabin need to  adhere to the CC&Rs, be properly permitted and be approved by the ARC.  The Architectural Review Committee (ARC) can help answer any questions and get the process started.

Our spring fed water system is handled by a second volunteer board (Mill-Creek Lassen Water Company) who keep the water clean, clear and running freely.  Blue flags on the street signs mean the water is good usable drinking quality. 

Many of the cabins have been passed down within families for decades and some for generations, but newcomers will find just as much to enjoy.

Welcome!
