Mooie rustige camping. Ontzettend aardige host. De schoonste pit toiletten die we ooit gehad hebben. Goede uitvals basis voor Yosemite via de tioga road.

The camp host was SO helpful and knowledgeable about the area. The campground is beautiful and very well maintained. We only stayed 2 nights but would have happily stayed longer.

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.
