This was our 4th time at this campground. It's a real nice place. Quiet (depending on your neighbors) yet still close enough to civilization for a quick supplies run if you need. We've used a different campsite all 4 times and if you pick 'em right, you'll get a site with a lot of shade and plenty of flat space to set up your tent(s). Some sites have little to no shade nor any flat ground so choose carefully. We usually choose this campground during the colder months since it's open year-round and low enough elevation that it's not too cold in winter. Bathrooms are very well taken care of and are the best-smelling and maintained vault toilets of any campground I've ever been. That's coming from someone who's done 15 camping trips to different parks in the last few years.

Be advised that they've been doing bridge construction just before the campground entrance for several months. During our early-November 2021 and mid-February 2022 visits, we've had to wait up to 20 minutes in a mile-long line of cars to cross the bridge into the campground during peak traffic times. It's only one lane each way over the bridge with automated traffic lights guiding traffic. At night and in the morning it's not so bad.

This campground is a couple miles out of town and very convenient. The area is beautiful and the camp spots get lots of sunshine. The hiking trails are located at the end of the campground and are easy.

It turned out to be a rainy weekend with freezing temperatures at night which held off many campers. So... we had the place to ourselves. The campground was lovely, quiet and clean. Hope to be back again next spring.

Our site was really well-spaced, the bathrooms were clean, and although we only stayed briefly it was relaxing.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Fires & fuel

  • Check fire restrictions before visiting, as wood and charcoal fires may be prohibited.
  • Buy firewood locally and burn it on-site to protect California's forests.
