Best RV Parks & Resorts near Little Lake, CA
Fossil Falls Campground provides primitive RV sites near Little Lake with limited amenities, though no hookups are available on its spacious grounds. Lake Olancha RV Park offers 50 full-hookup sites with electric, water, and sewer connections just north of Little Lake, though sites are arranged in close proximity. "Sites are small and you're basically packed together. Power and water are on the right instead of left," noted one camper about Lake Olancha. Approximately 35 miles south in Ridgecrest, Bertrand's High Desert Mobile Home & RV Park maintains separate overnight areas for RVs with level pull-through sites featuring 20/30/50-amp service, while Desert Empire Fair RV Park provides year-round access to big rigs with full hookups.
For overnight travelers, several RV parks provide convenient dump stations with potable water. At Bertrand's, the dump station costs $10 for non-guests, accessible via a self-pay station near the overnight area. Cell service varies throughout the region, with stronger signals in Ridgecrest and spotty coverage in more remote locations. Summer temperatures often exceed 100°F, making functional electrical hookups critical for air conditioning. Most parks welcome pets, though restrictions may apply during peak fire seasons. When approaching from Highway 395, RVers should note that some roads leading to dispersed camping areas abruptly end, creating difficult turning situations for larger rigs—one review warned: "Beware! Road ends on the half of the way. No advise to enter the road with RV."
