Always love Bass Lake. The sites could be cleaned better but we always go through when we arrive and before we leave and make sure there is no trash —especially water bottle and beer bottle tops— left behind. The Bass Lake area as a whole has seen better days. Wish everyone would pick up after themselves

We had a great time at Bass Lake. We brought the kayaks and just carried them down to Miller's Landing and launched them from the shore.
Our campsite (lucky #13) at Wishon had almost no shade, and most of the land was on a slope which made it hard to find a flat spot to place a chair. But other than these minor issues, everything else was great. It also was convenient to have the Miller's Landing store so close in case we needed supplies.
I think we actually got to experience an earthquake while we were kayaking. We noticed that there were quite a few moderately sized waves for a few minutes even when no motorboats had been leaving wakes. We later heard that California had an earthquake during that time. Exciting stuff!

Wishon is a great campground close to Miller's Landing and plenty of beach (lake) access. I have been coming to this site every year for the past 15 years!

Our sites (31 and 32) was mostly flat for tents and chairs. There isn't much shade at site #31 and it was hot. Easy walk down to the beach and Millers Landing Resort. The camp host was helpful. Very narrow and bumpy roads in the campgrounds. There were other sites with great view of the lake but were "hilly" sites which weren't great for tents.

This was our first time staying at Wishon point campground and we will definitely be back! Many of the sites had great views and were extremely clean and well kept. Vicki (the camp host) made our trip an A+! She was super personable. There’s a store (with an extremely friendly owner) right down the steps, and the lake is walking distance.
