Great site w/ beautiful views

We stopped at Four Jeffrey on a whim and it ended up being a great campground with super friendly and helpful camp hosts and lots of really cool sites with great views. We lucked out and got one with a bit of coverage by the stream, enjoyed a nice walk by the water and a nice peaceful night by the fire. Unfortunately we didn't have much time here so I'm not sure about the recreation in the area, but I'm sure it would be a great home base for any fun activities you're doing in the area.

Stick to the Stream

Pulled in late without a res, stopped by Sabrina, which was full up, and then Four Jeffrey campsite. Ran into site managers Dan and ___? upon pulling in who were glad to set me up with Site #1 as someone had just cancelled. They were kind and helpful, the whole area is clean and open, not a lot of coverage unless you are along the stream, which I was. If you have an option I would recommend scoring a spot in one of the sites along the stream, whichever follow along the side #1 is on, and you will be treated to a private stream-side retreat that feels apart from everything else. Easy access to South Lake and hiking - I recommend the Treasure Lakes. Wonderful!

Great location for Lake Sabrina and South Lake

Stayed here on 4th of July weekend and was able to find a first come first serve spot. A lot of the spots don’t have much shade but there are some that do have shade. The bathrooms are cleaned daily. Only about 10-15 minute drive to the lakes. Overall a pretty good spot as long as you can find shade in the summer.

Great Views

Awesome location right in the middle of everything Bishop creek has to offer. Clean facilities with a ton of walk up sites. Most sites are perched up on a hill and offers great views.

Great Spot

Found this gem on line after another reservation fell through and I couldn’t be happier with it. Our site was nice and private with a stream in back! It’s up in Mountains so be prepared for the temperature change. Had nice bathrooms! Your not far some good fishing spots. Overall a nice site and we will for sure be going back.
