Beautiful

I just returned from a 3 night stay at Whitney Reservoir and I think this may be my new favorite spot. Peaceful, beautiful…honestly words don’t describe. You access via FR032 off Mirror Lake Highway and go 7-8 miles. The road does get bumpy at times due to rocks and washboard. I was towing a Rpod with a Tacoma and it did fine. I just had to take it slow.

Beautiful! And free!

Visited Whitney Reservoir during the 2nd weekend of July. The wildflowers were showing off all over the place! The reservoir actually looked quite full to me, it was beautiful. From what I could gather, I was expecting this area to be much more crowded than it actually was. It was not nearly as busy as I thought. My husband and I arrived late Friday morning and got a great spot near the water. Neighbors were about 50- yards away but coudn't see them from camp. Much more private than a typical campground. The main road was manageable through 638 (the road we stayed on) but got bumpier after that. Pulled a 18' camper and some spots were pretty rough. But I saw bigger campers get to the same area so it's doable. By the way Google maps shows 638 as a loop. It was NOT a loop. Maybe if the water was lower it would have been. We had to make a tight turn around to go back up the steep hill. I imagine it would be tough with a much bigger camper. Caught tiger and rainbow trout from shore both evenings but the mosquitos are bad!! Be prepared with DEET and/or a ThermaCELL. We saw tons of wildlife, including a moose swimming in the lake (one of the perks staying by the water! ) Overall, if you're looking for a beautiful getaway, this might be it! No service for the most part except for random spots here and there (at&t).

Whitney lake

Great overnight trip. Water level is very low and it was fairly crowded for a Tuesday night. Roads are in very bad shape for the number of RVs in the area. Great scenery and lots of deer wandering close by.

Words could never describe

My boyfriend and I spent 45 days at Whitney Reservoir. It was by far the best experience We’ve ever had. Of course on busy weekends there was a little more commotion from other campers and atvs. However everyone was respectful of our space. The sheep seem to run the land 😂 we experienced the water drop almost 30 feet. Fishing was phenomenal. Never skunked. We made a point to revamp, clean, and improve the campsites we visited. The rangers in this area are extremely nice and helpful. I had a just a few pets... 10 turkey vultures, 2 bald eagles, 1 Osprey, 1 woodpecker, 4 deer, 2 Moose, 2 porcupines, mice, lots of chip monks, 1 fox, a couple owls and Coyote. A bear we never saw... and many, many, many unwanted flies. As the water receded the algae bloomed quite a bit and made it a little creepy to swim in. We very much enjoyed watching the moon go through it’s phases and star gazing with zero light pollution. The road is a little bumpy past the Dam but we had a Subaru Tribeca that went everywhere it needed to. We arrived at the end of July and we called it quits when a small hurricane came through and snowed for two days.
