Fantastic stay at Trumbull Lake campground. Very quiet, great size sites. Easy access to trails, and the restaurant at Virginia Lakes resort was excellent.

Trumbull Lake is fantastic. Beautiful setting and well maintained. Host Kimo couldn't have been friendlier! I hesitate to write more because I don't want the place to become too popular!

I try to make it to the eastern side of the Sierras every summer, camping at 3 different spots each time I'm there, and over the years, I've found Kimo to be one of the best campground hosts.

I went with a fly fishing club and it was excellent. Kemo the host greeted everyone and made us all feel welcome. One member had campsite #42 with a trailer and it was very difficult to get level. They got there a little after 5 and Kemo worked with them until almost 9 trying to get them level. They got it pretty good then the next day several of us went over and finally had to get the jack out of the car to jack up the axel and we finally got it level. This site needs to have some leveling work done or be designated a tent site.”

We would give this campground 5 stars but we really didn’t like all the flys. Way to many flys…
The camp host was absolutely amazing. Great guy, super clean bathroom’s, made his rounds and showed he really cared for the campground. Fishing was good at Trumbel lake never went down to Virginia lakes they were to busy .
Please keep this camp host he’s awesome 👏
