Several facilities provide sanitary dump stations, with French Camp RV Park maintaining particularly clean dumping facilities according to user feedback. Cell service varies considerably between valley and foothill locations. Pet policies differ by park—Lake Tulloch permits dogs but requires leashes at all times, while Olive Lane Mobile Estates limits campers to one dog per site. A recent review noted that Woodward Reservoir experiences seasonal water restrictions: "There are a few months during the year that they restrict the human contact with the lake water due to all the waterfowl poop in water." Advance reservations are recommended for weekend stays between May and September.
