Barton Flats Family Campground

Nice time here in April. The weather is perfect for riding and trail running. 

There is a trail from the camp over to SART. It's kinda hard to find since it starts behind someone's campsite. Luckily for me, no one was using the site that day. 

This and San Gregorio are about the same. There is a trail that connects both of them. 

I booked a couple more dates in July and August to ride upper SART again.

Had a great one night stay there. Nice hosts solid place. 4 stars just because location isn’t overly amazing especially when nearby jenks lake is so low

Campground is open and has a few spaces available. The grounds are nicely maintained and the bathrooms were really clean. The camp hosts were very nice, knowledgeable.

Clean forest air, beautiful trees, what else do you need? Barton Flats campground is kept up nicely with very clean bathrooms. The hosts do a great job making sure everything is in order. Quiet hours are at 10 and it was pretty peaceful. Jenks lake is a short 40 min hike from the campground, the trail is adjacent to the sites! We had a blast and will definitely visit again!

This is a great campsite for a weekend getaway with the family. The camp amenities are nice; clean bathrooms and showers on site. This is also a closer drive from the IE valley, but the downside is it is a bit of a drive if planning to head up to Big Bear. However, there are some great trails in the area for hiking. This campground is an annual tradition for us.

Really cool spot for the family. Clean bathrooms. Fresh spring water. Each site has a good amount of space but if you have neighbors you’ll be able to see them. We got lucky and went on a Sunday. It was almost empty. Camp hosts are very kind and helpful. They come around to talk about a couple rules and if you are respectful and follow those rules you won’t see them again. Really cool hiking trail to Jenks lake. Trail is 1.5 miles to the lake with a nice creek along the way

We stayed here for the 4th, and the weather was great. Our site was large enough to fit a 24 foot trailer, truck, abd a car. The bathrooms and showers were clean, and the hosts were friendly. There is a hiking trail that goes out of camp and plenty of other options in the area. Also check out Jenks Lake

We got lucky and booked this on the same week! The campsites are a good distance from each other. Most are separated by big tree trunks. Every site has a bench, fire pit, and bear lockers. There are water pumps located throughout the area. The bathrooms I must say are the best I've seen. Its clean with running toilet that flushes with a sink! So it's not your typical toilet seat on top of a hole. Lol. It's less than 10 mins away from Lake Jenks, which a nice spot to check out for hiking, fishing and picnicing. Would recommend this place.

Cool spot to drive in and pitch a tent last minute. Jenks lake is just up the road. You can catch trout, bass and small little blue Gil and crappie. Lots of places to hike and is very convenient

Came here for a weekend, good spot for tent camping, I went on an off trail hike, cool, fun area. Some views. Drove over to the lake but couldn’t find parking. Very quiet and clean as well.

The camp is very clean.. Trees everywhere and lots of exploring ,which is my favorite part . There were 12 of us with adjoined campsites plus my dog. We've been going here since I was little and the reason is because it's so close but feels so far away and there's streams and just a lot to see. Only down fall is there's no fishing it's a 45 minute drive to the next lake.

A very quiet campground nesteled among the trees. Water is available. Flush toilets and showers available. Short hike to Jenks Lake

The campground is beautiful and can get crowded. The campsites are pretty big and have some privacy. There's a hiking trail in the campground with a great view. BUT camp hosts were very strict (which is usually fine) and approached us about 4 or 5 times to tell us to do things (we couldn't pull into our campsite, too loud, fire was too big). All of these can be reasonable things to fix but my husband and I are avid campers and have never had issues with camp hosts.

This spot is a good distance from the restrooms and has a water station right by the spot market. Restroom was clean with plenty toilet paper. There were also electrical plugs and a mirror. Trail from camp leads to Jenks Lake, east 3 mile hike out and back.

Spaces far apart, don't feel like you are on top of your neighbor. Some hiking trails. Running water. Vault toilets.

Had a great visit here about a month ago. We visited in April 2016 and it was such a change in climate from San Diego. It was mountainous, cool and peaceful. The campground was clean and the management personnel were helpful. We enjoyed a long weekend here and liked its easy access to trails. The campground is also only about 40 minutes from Big Bear, so a quick day trip to the town was easy to do. The site itself was great, not too close to neighbors and rather spacious. Easy walk to the restroom, too.
