Lots of sand and golf cart gangs"

"The lake is a spring fed lake with fishing and no gas engines. Its the best swimming in the area! It is also the cheapest in the area!"
"The lake is small, private, and exceptionally clean bc gas powered boats are not allowed. Kayaking, paddle boating, canoeing etc is all permitted. Lots of fishing spots available."
"We weren’t able to sit outside because of the direct sun until after 8:30pm.
This was a smaller lot with our neighbors fairly close."
ScoutI have been visited bishop lake family campground since I was a little girl. My mom brought us here every summer to have the time of our lives! She came here every summer with HER mom before that! So on and so on. We now officially have 5 generations of bishop lake lovers! And what's not to love...from beaches to boats...from camping to cabin-ing, theres endless enjoyment to be had! For those looking to stay thr night, Bisho Lake h Will surely have the site that's right!
ScoutGood for families with young children, lots of activities for children
TravelerGreat little campground very relaxed, clean, nice lake. Showers are a little cold but clean. Friendly staff and seasonal campers.
ScoutWe’ve camped at Pine Ridge Campground for the past five years. Over that time, we’ve chosen to overlook some ongoing issues — including a strong and persistent natural gas smell, ant infestations, loud music from a nearby bar, and no real amenities for families. The playground is extremely outdated and rarely used — it’s telling that you almost never see kids riding bikes or playing in the park. Still, we returned each year, hoping for a peaceful stay.
Unfortunately, this year changed everything.
Managers Joe and Susan falsely accused us of having our dog off-leash (which he never was). We always keep him leashed and use an e-collar to help manage barking. Joe even admitted that no other campers had complained, and we’ve never had any dog-related issues at any other campground. Despite this, they continued circling our site in their golf cart, closely watching us, and bullying to the point of telling us we were no longer welcome—threatening to call the police for no valid reason. Joe even made a comment about noticing my dog was standing on our dinette table - so he was peering outside our window??? No wonder my dog barked at him. We closed all our shades the remainder of the weekend to avoid feeling like we were living in a fishbowl.
This kind of targeting isn’t new — last year, Joe also rushed over in his golf cart to confront us about a visitor pass we had already paid for, showing a lack of trust and an overly aggressive approach. So yet another instance of over-the-top behavior that seems to define their management style.
Additionally, communication at this campground is poor — it’s often hard to reach someone to even make a reservation, there’s no automation and poor responsiveness.
On what should have been a bustling, beautiful summer weekend, the park was nearly empty, which speaks volumes.
After years of being respectful, loyal guests, we’ve decided it’s time to move on. If you’re looking for a welcoming, dog- or family-friendly campground with basic hospitality and amenities, we suggest looking elsewhere.
TravelerVery nice little campground. Run by the Lutheran church. Gary is very welcoming and friendly. No reservations, first come only. Very clean. The only thing I didn't like was shower house and bathrooms are in separate buildings. Very nice prayer trail.
GuideLevel sites with full hookup. Catch and release fishing pond. Nice little swimming area. Nice playground. Cute little petting zoo. Stayed for a week at $320.
GuideRuby is a fitting name for this gem. This is the most wholesome cute campground I've ever been to. It has a family owned summer camp vibe and the owners are very kind and helpful. The grounds are very well managed it's right on a river, it's quiet, peaceful and they sell great quality firewood at a low price. I could go on forever. If you see this place or learn of it you MUST give it a try. Ten out of ten and perhaps this was just luck but I didn't even see a mosquito!
TravelerWe've state at this campground on and off for roughly 3 weeks staying mostly at the Cedar cabin but we also tent camped as well. The staff is amazing, the campground is well maintained and quiet. Bathrooms are clean and it has hot showers and a place to do your dishes as well. We love the trails and the wildlife and the kids loved the parks.
GuideGreat starter campground which is just what we wanted - my buddy and I took his 6 year old camping for the first time.
The sites were not as secluded as I’d prefer but we made do. Nice hiking trails around the camp.
Watch out for ticks though.
