GuideWe have a site with electric and water for hook. Bring a long hose and power cord to get more flexibility about how to position your rig. There is a fire ring and picnic table on site. The site is spacious but mot much privacy from the neighbor. Was here in late May and hardly anyone here.
GuideHeavily wooded area. Great location to get to all the Hiks. Good location to be in the valley. Sites are tight would not recommend a rig over 30. Good access to shuttle system.
TravelerNot bad. Clean. Nice views. Campgrounds are a little too close. And it was crowded. But it was nice for a last minute weekend get away.
ScoutClose to Yosemite. Beautiful river running through the campground. There is no cell service
GuidePaved 2.5 mile road from 395 to campground and paved roads in campground/sites good condition. Approx. 1/2 sites close to level for 24' RV... 1/2 better suited for car/tent camping. Good clean flush toilets. Picnic tables / bear lockers in good condition. Hosts sell $10 firewood bundles. Sites are below lake but most still have nice view of mountains that surround lake. Generator hours till 10pm but thankfully only hear sounds of nature at 7pm. Nice mostly level walk around lake. $35/night... $17.50 with Senior Pass.
ScoutDog droppings everywhere and truckers stop to bathe in the lake and sleep. I don’t mind, however, they keep their diesels on from time to time and along with the noise we’re choking on diesel exhaust fumes.
TravelerThere is a small parking lot & a turn around for cars, it’s not as “dispersed” as advertised. We were able to get our van to the side of the turn around and have no immediate neighbors, but the main “lot” holds about 8 cars & is the trailhead to a hot springs. Night time was quiet, but definitely lots of visitors during the day for the hot springs.
GuideTypical small sites, narrow roads. But worst of all lousy wireless and no cell service . Saving grace it's in a beautiful area.
TravelerIf you are camping in anything other than a tent this spot is probably fine. But if you camp with a tent this is a last resort. It’s not the prettiest spot and the wind will keep you up all night
