"Next to a beautiful state operated historical park with lots of open space, tall ancient oak trees and two easy trails. Open space great for games, frisbee, soccer, or setup a volleyball net."
"So glad we did as it is tucked away on the grounds of an amazing state park!
Most of the sites are small with a lot of tree coverage. It was quiet, quaint, and clean. "
"Staff a very friendly and our site was just a walking distance to the bathrooms."
"We used the spot to not be in the snow but make the trip up to Iron Mountain Sno-Park...a 45 minute drive. The snow looked great for skiing but not so much for snowmen or sledding."
$50 - $70 / night
"We wanted a close to home location with all the hookups to make sure we knew how to use everything. We were shocked at how clean and beautiful this park was!"
"Spacious , clean, very friendly staff, beautiful walking trail around the park. The views are so beautiful we will definitely come back!"

"The lake has receded quite a but that one of the docks is about 100 yards from the actual lake now (California drought). The campsite was well maintained."
$25 - $70 / night
"I think this is my favorite California State Park. It is situated in the Calaveras Big Trees Giant Sequoia Grove."
"Pros - you are in the middle of the Sequoias, near hiking, kayaking, etc. Beautiful river nearby; pretty easy in and out for small-ish RVs. Hard to beat the location."
"There are trees throughout the park and although it is located right on the road, only the sites that back up to the road hear road noise. There is a small pond in the center and we saw some ducks."
"We enjoyed walking around with our pets and getting ice cream. The only annoyance was loud music past curfew, but it was only on the weekend."
$25 - $45 / night
"Fabulous lakeside camping.... We’ve been in March, May, July and September..... July, just too hot but we love being able to just get up and fish... The lake is stocked with Trout, Bass and Catfish."
"We had a couple of trees behind us to filter some of the sunlight. It was hot but cooled down nicely during the evening. We had some debris from previous campers but the campsite was pretty clean."
"No camping here but it is next to Henry Cowell SP. Tight turns, I would not recommend for RV’ers."
"We found a huge group site out here for our Burns Canyon trail run. I’m not sure if it was this exact location but it’s hard to miss! We’re planning another trip back already!"
"They are set into the mountains with trees behind you. The park rangers are very present to keep people in check and the camp host drives by multiple times to keep the bathrooms clean."
"The lake is GORGEOUS and amazingly cool during the summer, and we also love winter camping in the snow as well."
$39 - $90 / night
"I love the rich history behind it. The cabin boasts a king sized bed. We're excited to have them on The Dyrt!"
TravelerVery Nice small authentic mining style campground. Suitable for RV and hook-ups.
GuideNice spacious spots. No power or water hookups. Water spigots close by. Bathrooms with flush toilets and a single spacious shower. The shower needs to be updated.
GuideFirst off, we're members here. It's one of our four base camps across the US. That said, there is plenty to do no matter how you dress.
RangerWe were in Sacramento to visit with family. Spent 4 nights mid week at Cal expo RV park. The campground is very flat. Part is concrete part is gravel. I found the campground to be very quiet during our stay and well maintained. Basically just a parking lot no frills. There are no picnic tables at your site. The shower house has a $20 deposit for a key. This is refunded on return of the key. Showers/ restrooms are average but clean. Overall a good place to park for a few nights. Sites have full hookups if you want them
ScoutMy family of four enjoyed camping here. Site 116 is great. It is a little steep to get to the fire pit but the view were worth it.
ScoutWe stayed for one night and thought it was nice. We had a couple of trees behind us to filter some of the sunlight. It was hot but cooled down nicely during the evening. We had some debris from previous campers but the campsite was pretty clean.
ScoutThe RV park and cabins are private so can only be accessed via membership or introductory offer. Nice park with amenities and family oriented with nice swimming pool during May thru October
GuideWe visited this camp ground last year for a pre-spring getaway and really liked it. Tried it again this week, and it was great again. About 3 weeks later in March than last year so there were a few more people. The grass is green, and the leaves are out on all the oak trees which makes it more beautiful. Everyone else was on the loop near the shore. We picked a site away from everyone else at the other end of the campground with a stunning view over the lake. Highly recommended for a spring visit.
TravelerWe travel for work and had to book last minute, Bruce was/is extremely nice and helpful! Super laid back and willing to help in anyway, we couldn’t be more happy with the customer service here. The sites are a little tight but not bad at all and each one has a privacy fence and small concrete pad. Will absolutely stay here again. Also while setting up, every person that walked by said hi and welcome! We have never experienced that much friendliness in a campground.
