Site 029 was a lovely little lot near a water spigot and the bathrooms. We were adequately spaced away from the neighboring sites, but unfortunately within full view of the road and the site across the road (site 52 or 53). 029 backs up to the tree line that separates the campground from a residential property, which means you have a little forest to your back and the other sites to your front. For us, that’s the ideal set up, making the site feel more secure. We were able to fit 3 small tents within the site boundaries and 2 cars in the driveway. The area was under a grove of pines and provided shade throughout the day, which we were grateful for. You don’t need an easy up canopy for this site. It is more of a long/ narrow site, but one of the most shaded and private that we could see in the whole East campground. The bathrooms were well kept and stocked, and the camp hosts were friendly. Camp hosts sell firewood for $10/bundle cash only, but also informed us that the guy living next to the campgrounds sells a wheelbarrow full of firewood for $10 cash. Don’t buy wood in Running Springs!

Green Valley Lake was just a quick 5 min car ride away or a 1+ mile walk away, and very pleasant to visit. It’s not open for swimming, playground is closed, and most shops also close early, but still an enjoyable area to check out. If you’re camping with your dog(s), the lake had a dog play area where they can splash around. Don’t forget a ball or toy! Will definitely visit again.

Great camping spot for our first time out. Grounds extremely clean with clean accessible bathroom. Large sites were big enough for multiple tents and family activities. Extremely enjoyable for entire family with nearby fishing and hiking. Highly recommend

GVL is a awesome campsite for families! So much to explore and do. There is even a lake for fishing and paddleboards. Also there's a swimbeach there too that we usually spend our summers at but this year it's closed.

Site #15 has a raven family occupying one of the larger Ponderosa Pines. This meant some (very) unhappy parents when the fledgling fell and small maggots falling from their nest all over camp. Upon arrival, all restrooms were out of order and no water was available at the spigots. The camp hosts did not come around to explain, we had to speak to site neighbors and work together to find a spigot which still worked. Rumor was that some toilet ran all night and drained the well? Not sure, since once again, did not get to speak with the camp hosts despite going down to their trailer to find out. Thankful the general store had jugs of water for sale and we only stayed 2 days. I love this camp ground and the surrounding area, just was disappointed in this trip.
