About Wishon Bass Lake

Wishon Campground is located across the street from Bass Lake. The camp is shady, due to dense stands of manzanita, oak, cedar and pine, and thick undergrowth provides ample privacy. Some sites at Wishon offer lake views.

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.

One of the worst camps I have experienced. Most sites are on the hillside, not level for table or tent. The loop road was rough, and had a pothole a yard wide and half a foot deep. The road to and out of camp was no picnic either. We were warned that we were in bear country, but there were no bear boxes -- other than our cars. The toilets were pretty good, with running water, flush toilets, and some of the best toilet paper I have experienced. The Bass Lake in general is worth experiencing. It only needed a better camp than WIshon, and I will try to find it.

The host of the campground was very rude during our stay. Went to get a parking pass for the additional vehicle and was told to come back. We were told to move our RV because the way we parked it was not correct, even though there was space and it looked like a parking spot for RV. He came to our site twice asking about the music that was on during the day time but it was not our site that had music playing. It wasn't a great experience dealing with the host.
