Best host, Kimo. Always greets and helps in any way he can. Great fishing at both upper and lower Virginia Lakes. Resort has many amenties for such a high Sierra experience. Been going there for 18 years.

The camp host, Kemo, is the best camp host we ever had. He keeps the campsites family friendly and is very helpful. He is quick to enforce the rules (noise, speed limits, etc.) and takes no BS from rude campers. He makes this campground wonderful.

The campground and our campsite (#30) were very clean and comfortable. We were very happy with the ranger who checked in with us multiple times and offered wood for sale right out of his white pickup truck. The bathroom and water areas were clean and stocked. The lodge employees were great and the lakes were clean and beautiful. We can't wait for our next visit.

Nice bathrooms.
We were in #6. Wish there was better parking for our two vehicles. One had to park in the turn around.
