The weather was hot and the water temperature of the lake was perfect. We had a lot of fun. Our last day we went to Yosemite and spent the day exploring.

Hello, Wishon Point is a nice campground, close to the lake and stores, however when I recently camped there, I noticed no bearproof lockers to help campers with storing appropriate scented items in and to keep bears away from food. They should be provided at every campsite to allow the area to be safe for humans and wildlife!

Been coming here every summer for many years. Quick walk to the lake and to Miller's Landing. Highly recommend.

We were in site #3, and the views are amazing at this site. There were trees, but for the most part, they were around the perimeter of the site. The good thing is that there are lots of young trees so the forest is growing back. The bad thing is there is not as many trees to hang a hammock. There are lots of flat spots and we were able to fit 3 good sized tents and two small tents on this site. I would definitely book this site again.

#31 was a nice open site with a good amount of room but from the pictures you really can’t tell what a steep hill it’s on so if you get this spot be prepared to do a lot of leveling, also don’t have a trailer over 20ft otherwise backing into it will be very difficult.
