we had a great 2 weeks!!
(Some Notes)
1. Shower areas could use some maintenance! Either bad shower heads or low water pressure
2. Handicap sink has "no hot water" (not connected at all)??
3. A little more hot water
4. Fire pits needed cleaning out. But didn't see a place to put excess ashes
5. Spot 27 had a bad water relief pressure valve

Brian the host, is excellent. He is very friendly and polite and remembers us after only one other visit from a year ago. Facility is clean and well maintained despite high water issues.

Brian and Diane are absolutely the BEST Park Attendants we have ever met. Exceptionally friendly, great at attending to the park. They have turned this park into a favorite spot for lots of folks. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

We love Bidwell. The campground hosts, Brian and his wife, are kind, helpful, diligent folks. The corps does a great job keeping it up. We wish they would trim the trees down more on sites 1-8 so that there were better lake views.
