About

Municipal

Welcome to Silver Lake West, a charming campground nestled near Pioneer, CA. This spot is a gem for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in nature. Open from May to October, it offers a serene retreat with plenty of activities to keep you busy.

One of the standout features here is the proximity to Silver Lake. Just a short walk away, you can enjoy fishing, kayaking, or simply soaking in the beautiful views. The campground itself is well-maintained, with clean pit toilets and trash facilities. While there are no showers or electric hookups, the natural beauty more than makes up for it.

Visitors often rave about the peaceful atmosphere and the friendly camp hosts. The sites are cozy, some nestled close to a creek, providing a soothing backdrop of running water. If you're into hiking, you're in luck. The Thunder Mountain Trailhead and other trails are just a quick drive away, offering stunning vistas and a good workout.

Pets are welcome, so feel free to bring your furry friends along. Just remember to keep them on a leash and clean up after them. Firewood is available, and campfires are allowed, making it easy to enjoy a classic camping experience with s'mores and stories around the fire.

One thing to note is that the sites are first-come, first-served, so plan accordingly. The campground can get windy, especially in early July, but that’s just part of the adventure. Whether you're here for the fishing, hiking, or simply to relax, Silver Lake West offers a fantastic getaway with plenty of natural beauty to explore.
