Beautiful lake and roomy campsite. Base camp for a hike up Virginia Lakes Trail to Summit Lake. Host was helpful and friendly.

We were “welcomed” by the camp host (I’m assuming) with a disgruntled demeanor and a threat. When he walked up, we were expecting a “Welcome. Enjoy. If you need anything, please ask”. No. We got a mean old man telling us over and over not to back up into the preserved bushes/trees (we have a large, long bed Ford F-350 truck and were trying to back up into our camping site) and proceeded to say that he would ”drive us out of here”. Wow! Thanks, buddy! Nice welcome! Funny though, he lives (?) right next to group campers that were super loud until at least midnight and never told them to quiet down. I don’t get it!
Other than that, we loved the campground and the site #5. It’s nice and private on the end.

A nice campground. The host was friendly and accommodating. The spots are a little too close for my liking. So during the peak season you’ll have to put up with noise from kids.

The excellent paved road up the hill is a plus. It was one of the quietest Eastern Sierra campgrounds I have ever experienced. Good water spigots. Campground host was a nice guy.

The camp host, Kimo, and the campground is the best I've been in. Pit toilets were clean everyday and sites were silent at night.
