Green Valley

We had a wonderful time at Green Valley Lake! We did have a few hiccups. Watch out at night for the WOODEN POSTS THAT LINE THE CAMPSITES and parking spots - smaller ones can easily be missed and ran over, causing damage to your vehicle!

There is no CELL PHONE SERVICE at the the campsite, but if you drive back down to town, you can get a little bit of service there if you're lucky. The local restaurants provide wifi to their customers too if needed. We went down on a weekend when there was a Woodstock anniversary celebration. It was very well attended (but not too crowded!). The local market provides a diverse assortment of snacks, food, ice, candy, camping supplies, etc. - although they are a little more on the expensive side.

A note about the beach at Green Valley Lake - if you bring your DOGS, they will not be allowed in the swim area. They are only allowed in the area outside the gated swim area. At the same time, please note that humans are not allowed to swim outside the gated swim area. So all in all, don't plan on a day in the water with your pup!

EXTRA PARKING - you can park right out front of the campsite without getting a violation, but those spots can get filled up quickly. You can contact the host to purchase an additional parking permit if the campground isn't too full.

We had a great time at Green Valley Lake and our hosts we amazing, but unfortunately shared that it would be their last year at Green Valley Lake, yet will likely go again!

It was much better than the previous year with campers next to me that were drunk loud and wanted to beat up a senior citizen. I thought I was was supposed to get a free night credited to my account, but never happened. We love our annual camp out and will continue to use this service.

It was a great environment with a great place.
We had very good time with my family and friends.

My two dogs, husband and I very much enjoyed the labor weekend at Green Valley camping site. The host was very attentive and welcoming and the site we picked was perfect which is #4 for many reasons - Not directly seen by other campers which could sometimes trigger our dogs to react and also provided us a great sense of privacy. We have camped many local sites, but I must say that I had the best experience at this specific camping ground. Not many mosquitos (lots of bees, but I way prefer bees over mosquitos), short distance to a lake and amazing trails. Price was also right on. Highly recommend!

Nice shady, roomy campground with well maintained facilities, helpful host, and family friendly atmosphere. The lake is wonderful for swimming if you can handle the snow-melt chilly water. The easy drives over the Big Bear, Arrowhead, and Lake Gregory open up additional recreation options. GVL is an annual event for us now!

Great place to camp.

The sites are small but lovely. There is a very small 1' across the stream that runs along the campsites by the road. The site is within a pleasant walk of the lake, stores, and restaurants in town. The hoast was friendly. A man came into the camp around 3 am. Got into people's bear boxes, skulked around their tents. He went into my bear box and I was prepared to let him take food, but then he tried to come into my tent and I ordered him to leave. Instead he walked over to my fire pit and lit a fire. I again confronted him and again told him to leave and he did. I couldn't call the police since there's no cell service at the campsite. I told the camp hoast the next day and then the mentally delayed woman staying with the groundskeeper walked around the campsite screaming about me, the groundskeeper, the camp hosts, and made the rest of my already stressful stay pretty miserable. She never spoke to me directly. She just walked around screaming for hours. The hosts and the groundskeeper she was staying with left the campsite to get away from her rather than stopping her. When they left she walked to the empty campsites and screamed at nothing. It's such a lovely spot, but don't go unarmed.
