Crags Campground

Calm little campground near a lake. Space per campsite was very good. Grill, fire pit, and table all in good shape. Bathrooms were very clean. Wood for sale.

Negatives: no showers, not much tree cover, scenery is Nevada desert (even though in CA), mostly sage brush and bitter brush, but the campground is nestled in a modest valley giving some scenery.

Perfectly good place to relax, but not any super activities or scenery.

Campsite was so clean when we arrived!

I CAN'T WRITE MUCH EXCEPT JOY WAS VERY HELPFUL AND PLEASANT AS MY WIFE HAD A AHLZHEIMERS ATTACK AND WE WERE ONLY THERE FOR A DAY AND A HALF AND HAD TO LEAVE. IT WAS HARD FOR ME BUT I WILL SURVIVE AND GO BACK AGAIN. THANKS

We’ll maintained campground. Have camped here numerous times and never been disappointed.

Loved this campground! Great neighbors which one of gave us some freshly caught trout! close to a creek that my pup loved to swim in and a 10min walk to the lake! Clean bathrooms and clean campsites! Nicely spread out surrounded by mountains! Camp host was nice but if you plan on buying firewood from the host be prepared with either cash or a check apparently. No digital cash or card. I believe it was about $7/bundle. The general store across the street from the lake has a lot of stuff but they close at 6pm. We’ll definitely be back!

Great campground if you like dry camping and 4 legged critters and plenty of walking trails and biking too.

Great campground, clean bathrooms.

Our experience at the Crags CG was great (we were there when the tropical storm came up from the Gulf of Mexico and Palm Springs in August of 2023, so it was wet as hell, but that of course can't be blamed on the campground). The CG hosts were helpful and friendly, and everyone we met there was also super friendly.

The setting is stunning when you have a clear view up to the Yosemite National Park border. The creek is pretty and there are plenty of easy hikes in the are, e.g., a walk to one of the Twin Lakes. The campsites are spread out, which is great no matter where you are, but especially here because many of the CG denizens had huge trailers and ran generators often. This is usually not my kind of place, but the setting and the friendliness of those involved made it OK. The campsites all tend to have a nice cleared area for tents and a table, bear locker, and fire pit. We really liked the look of the place—the CG is sparsely populated with trees and has a nice desert floor. I would definitely camp here again.

We've stayed at this campground at least 12 times in the last 12 years and have always found it to offer an excellent experience. It's close to Lower Twin Lake which offers great kayaking (5mph limit) and excellent fishing if you're so inclined.
