Loop 1, space 9. Beautiful and CLEAN! Appears all sites have a lot of room/space and very private. Quarter showers were clean!!! Patty, our camp host was the best! She provided us with a ton of information and was always so kind. She is the BEST!

We had a wonderful time! Site 9 has a level spur and one or two level areas for tents but the fire pit area is on a hill, which is awkward. The host is SO KIND and wonderful at her job. Other campers observed quiet hours w their generators. I love exploring this area of california. It is beautiful. No motor boats allowed on the lake so its very peaceful. Sites are quite large. Multiple bathrooms and a coin shower available. However, I really wish they had bear boxes!!! This encourages responsible camping. Bc there are bears in the area, we had to pack up the truck every day. One of us has a back injury and the other has a should injury so this was a real pain that bear boxes would help with (we had to unload the truck each day to take it out exploring.) We will be back!

The campsite host was very nice and helpful. The campsites we clean and everyone was friendly. A lot of knots at night but no bees. Coming back

This site was too sloped to be great for setting up a tent, though many other spots in our loop looked fine. We were disappointed to see the restrooms with running water were out of order. Instead there were portapotties that were badly in need of service and out of toilet paper. We decided to enjoy the lake for the day and then just head home.

The camp ground is very nice and well maintained, buy it would be great to have metal bear boxes at each site as there are definitely bears roaming the grounds at night. The area is excellent (lake, woods, trails)!
