This campground allows pets and is big rig friendly, making it a convenient choice for families and larger groups. Visitors have noted that the area can get windy, so be prepared for that, especially if you’re camping in the summer. One camper mentioned, “Nice site.

Overnight stay

I got there after they closed (closes at 5pm.) But there's a number to call that was posted for after hours. A camper in front of me had already called and someone arrived within minutes. They were very helpful and friendly. I got a beautiful spot secluded from everyone. I loved it! Just me and nature. I played some music dance by myself as if nobody was watching.

Nice site. Look in the 50's & 80's for the more secluded campsites. Can get windy, and it's dry camping at this time (no fires, no water, no hookups, etc.). Fire scars all around the lake...looks like this entire area got hit a few years ago. Nice host at the front gate, $45 and at least on a Sunday PM (July) it's mostly empty. Boaters are here in large groups during the day...but very peaceful at the moment. Bring extra H2O. Lake is full at the moment which is great!

Pleasure Cove Marina

Very nice and peaceful stay. It got really cold at night (32 degrees), but my fault for not checking the weather. Beautiful views. Nice landscape. Spacious sites. There was no one else in the cluster of 6 spots that I stayed at. I noticed further down the road, there were tents and RV’s. Seems like I didn’t know the correct area to reserve, but I’m not complaining about having the place to myself. My spot did not have running water, but it did have Porta potties that were extremely clean. Few people had fires, so I made one. Lake water level is pretty low. Overall nice experience.

Sitenot sure.. it was a cluster of 6 sites

Our favorite spot to take the kids to the lake. If your looking for something calm this is the spot at Lake Berryessa.
