Best Campgrounds near Sugarloaf, CA

Each space has a nice grassy area and concrete patio. Sites are level. Great showers and laundry. Nice dog play area. Away from highway noise. Lots of shade trees.

It’s a Passport America campground & so we tried it out. A creek, lots of trees, a quiet roadway and full hookups made for a nice break. There are long time campers/residents & the place is worn down but it has a nice peaceful presence. Flush toilets & showers (remember to have shower shoes), no litter laying about and even though it’s actually next to the I-5, no traffic noise because of the thick buffer of trees.

The good. Managers are there daily. Dumping trash and cleaning the pit toilet.

The bad. Managers are there daily being passive aggressive in reminding you they can kick you out, walking around looking in the same vehicles (even yours as you stand there) and writing down plate numbers. They like to remind you of the 14 day in 365 day limit for the region, not just here. They like to talk about their database and what will happen if you try to camp somewhere else and they love complaining about tent campers outside the parking lot. Also, no fires, ever.

That being said. Blm law enforcement they claim to have in their pocket reminds everyone that tent camping is allowed outside the parking lot.

It is clean though, the rivers is blah and turkey hunters might fire off next to you but walk the road. Plenty of trails, beautiful meadows, horseback riders seen regularly. Quiet at night usually to. If not tell the managers, they’ll get right on that lol.

I won’t go again but that’s not because of the CG.

Details: Law Enforcement does visit, they are nice Locals are a problem Be prepared for management complaints, not camper complaints Town is 20 minutes away Free stay with a weird 14 day regional rule, inquire with management

Very basic sites, on the river. Hosts are super helpful and friendly, great for a short time.

This campground has full hookups, a. WiFi that is good enough to stream and it’s not a parking lot, good for tents and rv’s

I have frequented this RV campground several times over many years.  It is sad to see it becoming run down. The once paved interior roads are now barely discernable dirt paths. They also have a fee for locking in your chosen campground site for an additional $35 fee?!?!? Once you have waited for a specific site/s to become available to reserve, under what circumstances would they deem it reasonable to move you to another site without your consent?  I luckily did not (will not) pay the additional fee, and 90% of the campground was vacant the week I was there. That guaranteed reservation fee is just a scam to get more money out of you. The costs of the sites are not cheap to begin with.

Wow what a place, I’ve never seen anything quite like it.

The road although incredibly long and winding was well maintained and I’m pretty sure even a car could make it without issue.

The drive up was a whole experience in itself, reminded me of Last of The Mohicans, don’t slip!

I went during hunting season without realizing it, out of the 10 sites 7 where taken up by hunters, but I only saw one person my whole stay.

Another great stay September 19-22, 2024. Love this place! This time we enjoyed 9 holes of golf at the Weed Golf Club!

Well maintained and clean park. Actually has grass, not all gravel. Sites level. Nice pool and laundry room. One night stay and arrived late so did self check in...no password for bathrooms were given, so asked a neighbor for a password. One of the restrooms was shut down for repairs. Too pricy.

Road dips down but rutted and I'm low clearance so can't tell what's down there. I'm in amthe o ly pullout off the side of the road before it Dios. Awesome view. Cannot hear water the other person mentioned but also haven't walked down the road yet. 3 or 4 rigs down close by. I am in a level spot but nowhere to walk except road from here. Again, great view.

This is an awesome campground with a single-lane road. I love visit it and join adventures in geometry dash lite. We managed to navigate it in an SUV with a teardrop trailer, but I wouldn't recommend towing anything longer. During our visit in May, the river flowed swiftly and cold, making it unsuitable for swimming or fishing. There is a well-maintained vault toilet on site, along with bear-proof recycling and trash receptacles. Limited to no service available for most of the journey. Remember, fire permits are mandatory.

We enjoyed our stay at Trailer Lane. Jay was very accommodating and took great care of us. The price was right also. We recommend this place highly. Very clean and well maintained. Bathroom/shower is old but clean with updated fixtures. We absolutely LOVED the animals onsite! Chickens, turkeys, quail and goats! Some of the chicken coops were old vintage trailers! 

We will return!

Wonderful place to stay overnight. The owners were very responsive to our concerns and requests. The campground is friendly, clean, well taken care of and easy to get to. It shows the pride of ownership. Will definitely return when in the area

Great little park. Lots of shade and green grass, good management, Clean restrooms and well kept grounds. Close to river and lakes for boating and fishing. There is a great area for tent camping or a place to dry camp with your RV just below the main RV park. There are targets set up for bow hunters in the pines below the park.

Our 35 foot fifth wheel easily navigated the space.
