Moro Bay State Park Campground

Our first camping trip. Great place to relax. Met several nice folks. Park is very clean and well kept. Asphalt pads are very nice. Nice playground for the kids.

This is our second time here. Decided to make a quick 2 night stay for Spring Break and this trip was as good as the first. The sites and bathrooms are kept up great. Don’t hesitate to plan a trip here.

We don’t have one complaint about our stay. The camp ground is very clean and in good shape. The pads are all asphalted so pretty level. Trash bins are at every other site and the bathroom is not a far walk. The temps are really hot but the bugs aren’t too bad. My family will be back!!

This park has it all! Campsites are level with all the amenities. Playground and recreation field are fantastic. You can rent bikes, kayaks, pedal boats and small fishing boats. My parents rented a cabin and it was immaculate. Honestly, there was not one negative thing for our 3 day stay. This park is excellent for kids and grandkids of all ages.

Spent 2 nights here, it's really well taken care of. All the sites are level, many with lake views. Only two short hiking trails. Boating & fishing here is very popular with the locals. El Dorado about 23 miles away for groceries/supplies/liquids. Camp store on site has basics, like ice and firewood.

Clean and quiet! Enjoyed our 2 night stay.

All the sites were concrete and level. Most sites had nice level tent pads as well. Restrooms were very clean. There was a large playground for children. We did not get to walk the trail as it rained on us most of the time we were there. We will go back and hope for better weather.

RV Sites are really nice- all of them are almost perfectly level, Each has a pad for tents, fire ring, bbq, lamp hanging post. Showers have bench for your stuff, they are clean & well kept.
