Nice campground, busy, lots of families on a warm weekend. Showers were broken, but facilities were otherwise nice. No cell.

The water in the shower was unavailable because you needed the campground host to turn it on and there wasn’t a host who was there all the time. I don’t understand why the water isn’t available for the showers because you need to put your quarters in to turn it on. It’s not like it’s going to be wasted. Also, I know some people need to run their generators but there needs to be a control over how loud they can be. It was beautiful but I liked it better when I was there in November - less people and more wildlife.

Beautiful campground but if your clearance is more than 9’ you can’t clear the trees overhang on the main road. Friendly staff.

The campground is lovely with many shady trees. We took two wonderful hikes in the surrounding mountains up onto the ridge above the lakes, and the other on the Santa Lucia Trail to the Horse Bridge (washed out) and back by the Indians Road. One restroom block was out of order, the other worked for toilets and sinks, but had to make an appointment with the host to take a shower. Host was very helpful and the shower was welcome at the end of the day. Many happy campers made plenty of noise late into the night. If I did it again, I might choose to go to the primitive campsites where there were fewer people. Still a wonderful place to spend the weekend.

Peaceful and relaxing stay with my family, definitely would recommend during the week less busy and better access to the day use area and trails! 🫶🏻 we will definitely coming back, thank you to the hosts and employees at the campground they were welcoming.
