Great Port

This site is located on the northeastern shore of Twin Lakes Reservoir. There is a boat ramp and there is a gate to block the use of ramp unless open. When open you will find someone that is checking for the Aquatic Invasive Species(AIS). They are there to make sure everyone follows the procedures for Clean, Drain, and Dry to prevent the spread of any AIS. There is a very large parking area for the boat trailers with a pit toilet. Overnight camping is allowed and the backdrop of the mountains and the quiet makes for a beautiful stay. In October there was no one else camped. Very peaceful, The parking area will hold any size rig- No Trash just a pit toilet. Verizon cell.
