Great little campground. Not a lot of privacy, and tent only spaces are close to the road. However it was close to the lake and the hostess was super nice and cleaned the bathroom several times a day. My husband hates public bathrooms and he was very appreciative of that. :)

There was too much traffic and noise . And meat hornets were very disturbing. We could have a proper meal . And sharing parking lot with a RV was another disappointment. They run the generator all night till 10 pm.
We ended our camping a day earlier than we planned. We had waited for this camping for almost 6 months. Best part was the flushed toilets. Very clean . Thanks for the person who was in charge.

Camp Host was amazing! She was super sweet and extremely helpful. Lake was only a short walk away. Campsites were a little dusty, but there’s not much anyone can do about that. The market is also only a 5 minute walk away and has just about any last minute things you may need. The people there are also great!

Campground was clean and camphost was friendly. If you need to be at Bass lake or need a place Convenient to Yosemite, then this is ok. No cell data for AT&T, but could call and text. The park really needs to clean up the low and encroaching limbs. There is no excuse to allow large limbs into the area where RV rigs will need to drive through or maneuver around when using the campground. I’ve stayed at numerous campgrounds and this one is the worse. I’m not talking about soft branches that brush by, but mature branches that scar the rig when they drag by or rake across the top. If you have a small RV, you will have less of an issue. I have 35’ motorhome. Convenient dump site, $10, near by. I would not stay again.
