Good camping

We ended up with a nicer semi private spot closer to the water although the lake was super low last year. Most sites pretty close together. Ours was spacious. Very rocky but the water was nice. A trek to the bathrooms from our area but they were in good shape. Lots of trees Has showers. I'd go again. Boat launch gets super busy.

My old Stomping Grounds

We us to come here often when I lived in Grass Valley. Recently I had the opportunity to go back and camp with my family. The place has changed some. Lots of campsites, and campers, all right next to each other, which made for a lot of camp noise, especially in the evening, but that is part of the fun of camping in a campground. The lake was a perfect temperature for swimming. There is a small store that is by the marina where we all had ice cream and the dock was perfect to lay on for star gazing and watching for shooting stars.
