About Grasshopper Flat

Grasshopper Flat Campground (5.9 ft) is one of three family campgrounds located in the Lake Davis Recreation Area. Campground loops around in the hills overlooking the lake providing most campsites with sweeping views of the lake's crystal blue water. Pine forest gives most campsites plenty of afternoon shade. A boat ramp and RV dump station are nearby. A trailhead for 7 mi long Lake Davis Trail is less than half a mile away.

What Guests Are Saying

Grasshopper Flat offers a beautiful, well-maintained campground with friendly hosts, particularly praised for their helpfulness and knowledge of the area. The clean facilities and peaceful atmosphere make it ideal for family camping, though visitors should be aware of bear activity and the lack of bear boxes. Some campsites are closely spaced, and parking rules can be strict, but overall, guests find the experience relaxing and enjoyable.

I always love coming to this campsite. The sites are clean, the trees are plenty, the weather is always great, the bathrooms and showers are extremely well maintained, the camp ground managers don't bug you a whole lot like other places we've been, and so on. The sites are a bit close together but we spent most of our time down by the lake anyway, which is a short walk from any campsite.
