Wishon Bass Lake campground offers a great location near the lake and amenities, making it a favorite for many families who return annually. Campers appreciate the clean restrooms and beautiful views, with some sites being spacious enough for larger groups. However, issues such as rude camp hosts, noise disturbances, unlevel campsites, and lack of bear boxes have been noted, impacting the overall experience for some visitors.

Quiet time of year in September/October.
Upon check in we got conflicting information which had us driving to Wishon then back to ranger station back to Wishon to ranger TWICE because Wishon host was not available and R station couldn’t check us in. We had to move very rapidly to make the 5 pm registration. We used the online system but it was not beneficial.
Tried to keep good attitude on vacation but we were tired and still had to set up a tent etc.
Wishon is so far from the entrance it would be nice to check in at Wishon!!!!! Crazy driving back and forth.

Great view and proximity to Miller's Landing. The ants at the site were un-welcomed. Good stay
