What Guests Are Saying
Wishon Bass Lake offers a lovely campground experience with great weather, private and spacious sites, and excellent access to Miller's Landing for boat rentals and amenities. Many campers appreciate the friendly and helpful camp host, who enhances their stay. However, there are notable concerns regarding the cleanliness and functionality of restrooms, as many experienced issues with portable toilets and locked facilities, which detracted from an otherwise enjoyable visit.

Loved the beautiful view from this campground. The biggest bonus was the great Verizon service that allowed us to work from camp. Also liked having the cute store and restaurant in walking distance from camp, there is a path near site #16. We had our mini goldendoodle with us and this place was full of treacherous sticky weeds. We had to carry her everywhere and I would not bring her back to this area for that reason. The mosquitos were hungry so be prepared. Camp host was nice.

This campground couldn't be in a better location. Right across the street from the lake! 4 stars out of 5 only because lack of trees/spacing between neighboring campers. Otherwise, prime location, great views of lake and lake access, clean camp and bathrooms. Would love to go back. Might just pick a diff site next time.

I give it a 3 star because the first day we got there was a Sunday and the bathrooms were not clean. They didn’t get clean until Monday. After that they were cleaned daily. Also quiet time is at 10 pm and the neighbors next to us didn’t care. They were loud until 1 am.
Also the trash at the dumpster was full (not bear proof). The last night my husband and I heard noise close by our campsite. It turned out to be a bear getting into the food that was at the dumpster.
Positive things are that the campground is close by the lake. Walking distance. Showers are close by at Miller’s Landing. There’s also Verizon cell coverage. Yosemite South Entrance was about a 30-40 min drive.
