Great campground at 7000 ft.

We spent five nights here in June of 2021. We had a campsite right above the creek (#45). There were a lot of fishermen and many families. Fires were allowed and the camp host sold firewood at $7 a bundle. Water spigots every few campsites. Clean pit toilets on the North loop and flush toilets on the South loop.Very nice campground.

All-time favorite campground

My family and I used to come here every year for a few weeks when I was growing up so it holds a special place in my heart. The setting is absolutely peaceful and serene here. We saw lots of wild life, including deer, who are not scared of humans at all!! Robinson Creek flows right though the middle of the campground and is a perfect place to do some trout fishing!! Bodie State Historic Park is an old ghost town nearby that is worth driving to. This campsite is great for families with kids. Bring your bikes, as there are a lot of paths to explore!
