Trimmer Campground

Hot showers + lake view

This place was nice, it’s one of the few campsites around the lake and this is for sure the more secluded one. There are only a handful of sites and only one other group was there when we stayed. Tents only, or maybe some smaller camper vans, but anything big is going to have a hard time getting in and out. It’s a very very small loop. The bathrooms were fine, a little scary looking, but they worked. There are showers, too, which really made this place for us. The water pressure is insane, kinda painful, but they get nice and hot and you don’t have to pay for them. The lake is gorgeous, great place to canoe or kayak or boat, there’s a small dock probably 100 feet or so down from the campsite. You can swim, too but it’s kind of nasty water. $20 a night, you have to reserve online, we had one bar but the service is sketchy so try to reserve before driving in. All the sites are essentially the same thing. The park ranger came around and checked us in, he was helpful, but you’ll definitely need a reservation. He said there are rattlesnakes, so stay out of the tall grass. There’s a water spicket with potable water right in the middle of all the campsites. Honestly, a very solid place. Right off the road, so it can get a little noisy but nothing crazy. Seems like a good place to stay if you’re trying to find something reasonably priced around Yosemite/Sequoia np and with a bonus of showers.
