Great place to stop.

Full hookup RV park in downtown Bishop

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.

Nice and clean. Full hook ups. Clean laundry room. Quiet except hwy 395 noise. Some view of the sierra Site 41 lean a bit to the right. Had to put one layer of pads.

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 👍

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!

  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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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
