Gull Point Campground

Beautiful treed camp ground on the Wickiup Reservoir with large sites.

The perfect place to take long strolls along the sandy banks of the waterway and admire the nuances of nature.

There is a dump station with potable water near by, yard hydrants and sink dumps throughout the camp, vault toilets, and a fish cleaning station.

Cellphone service on AT&T is negligible - you’ll have to do the 21st Century “searching for service” number if you’re trying to WFH and login to your virtual meetings. Once we got the LTE extender up and running, it seemed to solve the conundrum.

The dam was open when we visited so it was a completely unexpected, almost alien landscape compared to what we’re expecting.

The pups enjoyed frolicking about in the sand and chasing the assortment of ground squirrels and chipmunks.

Pros: The campground is nice, many vault toilets, fresh water spigot and sink drain sites, camp hosts are friendly, 1 mile drive to South twin lake, fair camping rates.

Cons: campsites are very close and only bordered by downed trees, extra car fee seems a little steep at $8/night, wickiup is almost dry now. Pretty to look at still, but the lake bed is very soft and muddy. Our dog got stuck in the mud 🤦‍♀️

Nice level sites, very hard to get reservations. They are drawing Wickiup way down every year now to put water in the river for the frog. Plan on it being UN boa-table early July. Thieves run rampant here. Do not leave you stuff unattended, it will walk off with no recourse. Sheriffs are busy patrolling water here a lot once fishing season opens.

Managed and clean. Insects were not an issue. The only real complaint we had was the absence of the camp host which led to us needing to move our campsite.

While the campground itself was nice, with spaced out sites for privacy (larger campground than I expected), in August the water was so low that we went to next door South Twin Lake for boating and swimming. We weren't the only ones-- it was packed!

I almost don't want to share this spot with anyone because it's so great. Been coming here my whole life. The sites are HUGE, plenty of room for multiple tents and cars. The lake is beautiful, often smooth as glass and many times the only boat out there. You do have to know the reservoir well though as there can be a lot of shallow spots, especially later on in the summer when the water is low. Do know that it is dusty and dirty here, mostly outhouses and no showers. But if you don't mind that, it is a very peaceful place… as long as everyone respects that. :)

We met up with some friends at this spot, nestled on Wickiup Reservoir. Spots are on the smaller side and not very private, and being near the boat ramp adds a little extra traffic. The beautiful reservoir with sandy beaches is the real draw for this campground. Sunsets are stunning, and a nighttime walk along the shore reveals countless stars and an occasional deer.
