  Mammoth Mountain RV Park & Campground

  Nice campground

  I really enjoyed tent camping here. I’m not a fan of the trailer camping because it’s all cement and everyone is close together, but it’s doable if need be. When tent camping, you’re under beautiful trees which I love!

  Boulder Creek RV Resort

  Clean and great amenities!

  Awesome RV park and amenities if you're going to be in Lone Pine for a while. It's on the outskirts of downtown Lone Pine, but the views are beautiful of the mountains and the RV park is spacious with plenty of room to get your steps in. Complimentary muffins and coffee from 7-9a daily which was very hospitable and kind.

  We spent a few days in the Alabama Hills and then came here for full hookups during the week. It was a great combo.

  The internet worked pretty well for the most part for work emails and video and live stream. AT&T service was 2 out of 4 bars and worked just fine for us.

  The grounds and amenities are very clean and the staff is friendly. The week was quiet, but as the weekend rolled around almost every site was full. It would be even better if we had more space between neighbors, but I'm still giving it a 5 star because it was perfect for the area.

  We will definitely be back.

  Eastern Sierra Tri County Fair

  Tight spaces but clean, in town

  Section of the county fairgrounds is a dedicated RV park. Has full hookup sites as well as no hookup sites. Park is clean & well run but spaces are small and tight. Pretty much a gravel lot. Level. One side has mostly shade, the other full sun. Showers and bathrooms are very clean. Fires in your own enclosed metal ring/container only.

  The off-hours campground host is super serious and frequently asked to see our tag/receipt. YOU JUST CHECKED AN HOUR AGO 😤 Unnecessary and demeaning signs placed throughout just left a bad taste in our mouth (see photo).

  No on-site laundry but the park is centrally located so is close to everything in Bishop.

  Lots to do nearby including white mountains, Sierra Nevada, Bristlecone Pine forest in the Inyo NF. Easy walk to downtown coffee shops, pubs, restaurants & shops.

  Would probably not stay again what with the militant host and unnecessary reminders that no, my mother indeed does not work here.

  Mammoth Mountain RV Park & Campground

  Nice Location

  Large enough sites. I have tried a year in advance for full hook ups. Only Water and Electrical again this year. As you can see, the sites are parking lot like. All asphalt. 

  Some area are sparse with trees, so you will get lots of direct light in these sections. Staff was pretty accommodating. Will be returning this August.

  Lodgepole Campground — Sequoia National Park

  Possibly the only campground open in winter

  Rv camped in winter. Not all loops open but there weren’t a lot of people there so it was ok. Lots of long rv spaces. Nearby exploring is plentiful

  Remember pets on leashes on trails.

  Highlands RV Park

  Clean and Close to Town

  This location is very clean, close to town with full hook ups. Staff was very friendly! It is right next to a pretty noisy road but I think it's a good stop for the night 👍

  Highlands RV Park

  Nice clean surprise spot!

  We were on our way to Yosemite at night and had to stop because of a winter storm that shut down the whole highway. We ended up checking into Highland RV Park after hours, which was super easy to do!

  They have a whole after hours check in system that works great.

  Sites are super clean, paved, and extremely level.

  Full hookups! 30/50 amp

  Staff are friendly and kind!

  We woke up to a beautiful 360degree Mountain View!

  They have a fish wash station which is a nice touch.

  Super clean bathrooms but we couldn’t get the code until the next morning because of checking in after hours (heads up if you’re last minute and need a shower)

  Full 5G AT&T service!

  Only reason I didn’t 5 star is because I think the price is a little steep at $50 per night especially considering the lack of amenities like a pool or tennis courts or anything like that.

  Would definitely stay again in a pinch though!

  Mammoth Mountain RV Park & Campground

  Amazing campground

  Do yourself a favor and if available get the full hook up sites! They are in the middle of the trees with great space and access to everything. The bathrooms were amazing and clean. The pool and spa is indoors and well laid out. This is now one of our favorite spots

  First Timers Camp Out

  This was our maiden voyage in our new Motor Home.. we enjoyed the location of MM RV Park and Campground because of the beautiful trees and the location was walking distance to restaurants and shops... the campground is clean and the people that work in the office are very nice. Linda whom I made the reservation with on the phone was excellent and I appreciated her knowledge and help.

  Eureka Dunes Primitive Campground — Death Valley National Park

  It's Not the End of the World, but you can see if from here

  (My visit was in Feb. 2020) I drove in from Big Pine, it's not that bad of a drive, if you like rough roads. The drive in is no where nearly as bad as the road to the Racetrack. There are no facilities here, nothing, nada, zip, so be prepared. You are on your own as cell service is limited to nonexistent. The campsites are along the road so you can drive right up to the site. There are a few sites picnic tables and fire rings (BYOW).

  Wishon Village RV Resort

  Unplug and Enjoy Nature

    We stayed at this campground may years ago (2006-2008) and it has remained one of our favorites.

    Our most recent stay was for a small rally of 8 class A RVs from 34' to 43' in length all with tow vehicles. Wishon was able to accommodate all of us. The drive to Wishon starts with a long climb to Shaver Lake.  Past Shaver Lake the road becomes windy for the remainder of the drive.  Expect at least a 40+ minute drive from the Shaver lake turn off. On the way you will pass a grove of Giant Sequoia trees with a pull out to walk or picnic among them.

    All sites are gravel and have full hook ups.  Some sites have 50 amp service but it will rarely be needed because of the elevation of 6800 feet. All sites will accommodate the RV, vehicle, boat, and more. Wishon also has tent sites with or without platforms. 

    There are many activities available from this campground. Hiking, mountain bike riding, Jeep trails (Dusy-Ershim Trail), and fishing.   Two reservoirs are nearby, Wishon and Courtright. Courtright at 8200' opens later than Wishon at 6600'. Rainbow and German Browns can be caught.

    Wishon Village has a nice store with most necessities and sells fishing licenses.

  New Shady Rest Campground

  Spacious wilderness sites

  We are currently spending a few nights at New Shady Rest Campground, and have really enjoyed the spacious sites among the pines. We had spent a few nights at the Mammoth RV Park, but we weren't happy with confined and noisy space. After riding our bikes through New Shady and talking to the friendly camp host, we decided to abandon the RV park and move. So glad we did.

  Most of the sites are widely spaced out, so you're not too close to your neighbors. But, if you're in an RV or towing a trailer, pay close attention to the max length or your site. Some of the smaller sites are only suitable for tent camping.

  We liked this place so much, we're coming back in August!

  Big Pine Creek Campground

  Enjoyed our stay

  We were planning to stay at Sage Flat campground on the road up from Big Pine, but didn’t like it so we continued on to Big Pine Creek CG and we were so pleased! They had 4 FCFS sites (sites 2-5) and we got site 4. It’s a nice site, but site 5 is really close. Someone took that site on our second night but they were quiet, fortunately. The creek is really pretty and the hike up to the lakes (lakes 1-5) is gorgeous. There are 2 beautiful waterfalls on the hike. The vault toilets were overfull and very stinky. There is a camp store at Glacier Point Lodge just a short walk up the road from the campground. You can get a 5 minute shower there for $7. No cell service but at the lodge you can get 24 hours of WiFi for $10. We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed it.

  Upper Sage Flat Campground

  Two Campgrounds in One.

  There are two types of campsites at Upper Sage Flat. The first are lovely shaded sites with the rear of the site adjacent to Big Pine Creek. They have tree cover but are really open to the neighboring sites. Honestly, would have thought they were pretty great if we hadn't stayed at nearby Big Pine Creek Campground (check it out).

  The second are the sites on the roadside and they are HOT AS BLAZES. There is almost no shade and they are basically just dirt/sand/rock pads. It's like being in an entirely different campground. Strongly recommend using Google Earth to check the site you're reserving (or first come, first serve if at (lower) Sage Flat campground.

  If you're in the river side sites you'll love it. There is a bridge over the river that leads to a trail heading north to the Big Pine Creek Trailhead. You can also walk up the road but the trail is a more interesting option. Plus, it is the narrowest part of the trail you'll run for about 5 miles. That's a good thing because if you make it that first 1/2 mile you'll be fine the rest of the way when it opens up into some pretty incredible trail after passing through Big Pine Creek Campground and Glacier Lodge Cabins & RV park.

  Decent pit bathrooms but right in the sun all day so much nicer in the mornings than evenings as far as flies and smell go. Bear boxes, fire pits and picnic tables. ***So basically a 4 if you have river side and a 2 if not. Maybe a 1. Location alone is worth 2. Yep. At least that. But really, try to stay by the river.

  Would have been better w/o the wildfires.

  The staff/owners were awesome even in a semi-crisis. This was during the California wildfires. I would recommend this RV park/campground they have ample space for both. Every site has a bear box. The one night I stayed there were at least 2-3 bear incursions into the grounds.

  Mcgee Creek

  BLM- Low Cost Campground

  This campground was open when convict lake and local rv parks were at maximum capacity. It’s a short drive to near by attractions, and a good base camp to enjoy mammoth lake and near by trails.

  Big Pine Creek Campground

  Big Pine Creek Is the Big Awesome Campground.

  This was our first time at BPCC and it was a great experience. The facilities were very well kept, clean bathrooms and excellent service from the hosts Steve and Annie. Our campsite (017) was well taken care of and we really appreciated the compact, unique feel of the site. Even more so because it felt separate from other sites. We could see that there was room for additional sites, but appreciated that it was kept more private. Wood was about $1-2 per bundle more expensive than other National Forest sites we've been in & the nearby town. The adjacent camp/rv park Glacier Lodge wasn't quite as well cared for really helped set the quality of BPCC apart.

  There was a trout stream/river running right through the camp (and a trout pond in Glacier Lodge at the entrance of the park. The water was continually rushing and made for some great sleeping noise. The campsite is literally teeming with wildlife. We had deer, birds, small animals and fish all around us. It is bear country but according to the hosts no bear have been spotted this season much less in camp causing a ruckus.

  The draw to Big Pine Creek Campground is the hike to glacial lakes 1-7. We hiked to lakes 1 & 2 and it was EPIC. The hike is uphill and hardish but the trail very well maintained and worth it. We were advised that it would take about an hour per mile (4.5 miles to the 1st two lakes) on the way there and about half that on the way back, but we made it out in about 2.5 hours of consistent hiking. The estimates were fairly conservative assuming you'd be stopping often. The hike back was accurate.

  You can also apply for a backcountry camping overnight pass which we plan to do next time. They only offer 25 per night so definitely check into it, but you can camp near the first lakes and hike further. The entire loop (all 7 lakes) hike is estimated at 12 hours. We will be visiting again soon.

  Great campground. Clean and crisp.

  Site WiFi is legit as is T-Mobile and AT&T service.  Staff is great and accommodating. Propane available onsite at 3.50/gallon.  The Mexican restaurant across the street (1 minute walk) and the Mahogany dried meats + sandwich shop (3 minute walk) had some of the best food. Really loved it.  40.50$/night with Good Sam, onsite laundry has plenty of machines and is very clean.

  Creekside RV Park

  RV park with hookups

  This was my first experience in an RV park with hookups. Generally we camp in spaced out spots that are a bit more secluded.

  I liked this campground from the standpoint of the kind folks running the place and working at the general store. There’s a stocked pond for fishing that is really good for kids. We camped here for the 4th of July with friends and in total our two campsites had 13 people (four kids).

  There is a shower available (but be aware it’s a bit of a tight squeeze as it shares space with the toilet.) It’s four quarters for five minutes for the shower. Other bathroom notes: Motion sensor lights, code needed fir the door, no paper towels so be prepared, has hot and cold water in faucets, receptacle for feminine products.

  The campsites are close to one another and it felt somewhat like a large parking lot. Our spot was across from the bathrooms and trash. There were not bear boxes on the campsites.

  The fire rings are movable which was kind of nice. We were easily able to accommodate our large group.

  The creek is lovely and rushes by with the nice sounds of a creek. Be aware that the water is fast and cold. There are not a lot of spots for kids to play so unless they’re older (and maybe even then) you’d want to watch them. We tromped through some “trails” and saw garter snakes, chipmunks, mice, and bats at dusk.

  If you need hookups, it’s a good spot. We were a pop up among many larger RVs. We got hit with some rain but it didn’t cause too much mess or mud which was nice.

  Wishon Village RV Resort

  Shaver lake is awesome!

  It's a pretty RV park. The hiking trails are great, scenery was amazing! There are fire rings and picnic tables. There is a great store that has everything you could want or need! Bathroom review, again: the cleanest! Flush toilets and coin operated showers! There are water spigots and an outdoor sink area for dishes, so helpful! Racoon and squirrels are always around looking for food, so I just use a bear can and store my food,here. It's just easier. RV sites and REALLY LARGE tent sites! Some of the biggest I've been to. The fishing was good, the only con is music is not permitted at all. Bring headphones. You will be asked to turn it off and possibly leave.

  Highlands RV Park

  Pretty cool park

  Highlands RV park is pretty cool. They offer many pull through spots and the back-in ones are located along the permitter of the park. A nice green area for your kids or dogs to explore. They even have a small pond out front. The spots are very well maintained, dirt sections and a concrete slab with picnic table. Due to Covid the facilities are closed, i.e. rek room, bathrooms, showers, however their onsite laundry was still available. At one end of the park they offer a fish station for your catch of the day. All in all it was a very well maintained park close to shops and restaurants. It was a little far to go from here to June Lake or Mammoth. We had a great trip, I’d definitely come back here again.

  Eshom Campground

  Hidden gem

  This place is REALLY out there. Seriously. While it is technically in Sequoia, it is very far off the beaten path and usually the roads to get there are super shitty and super winding (not recommended at night unless you're used to those conditions). But that's what keeps this place a secret!

  If your camper/trailer is more than 17-18ft, do NOT attempt to come here, you'll probably get stuck on the way. You can get to the Scenic Byway by taking one of the forest routes as a shortcut (I wouldn't recommend it for vehicles that aren't either trucks or 4x4 SUVs…you will bottom-out in anything else, bc the road isn't maintained). I'm not sure how long it takes to get to the main pard via the regular routes.

  There are several resident bears in the area, so you MUST take it seriously. Our site was visited nightly but bc we didn't leave food out it was fine. They come for the wild berry patches nearby. The toilets are fine (standard vault toilets) and there is running water. No showers or anything else.

  We love how quiet and remote this place is, it's a favorite

  Mammoth Mountain RV Park & Campground

  Good spot! Close to east end of Mammoth and plenty to do on-site!

  Stayed here for a week. Great spot for the family while I worked. Plenty for the kids and family to do and a great location close enough to bike/walk to most stores on the east end of town. 

  Our reservation said 50 amp partial hookups. But only the full-hookup sites have 50 amp. Partial hookups are 30amp with water, but the water access depends on the weather/season you're there in. We had to fill up with Fresh Water before we got to our site but it's in a convenient spot so not too big of a deal. 

  It is a parking lot but there was plenty of space for us and our SUV. Pool and Laundry Mat/Showers were close as well which made things nice. Starbucks is a short walk away too if that's your jam. 

  Great spot just make sure to call so there's no surprises with water/hookups etc. 

  Amenities: Pool & Jacuzzi / Laundry Mat / Showers & Bathrooms / Dump Station / Playground.

  Siesta Ranch

  Stunning views, great location

  Had a great experience at Siesta Ranch. The proximity to Alabama Hills and the privacy and convenience of full hookups coupled with views of the Eastern Sierras sold it for me. Would stay again!
