What Guests Are Saying
Lake Mary Campground offers beautiful scenery, clean facilities, and friendly hosts, making it a great option for outdoor enthusiasts. Many visitors enjoyed activities like canoeing and stargazing, and appreciated the presence of flush toilets and paved trails. However, some sites are cramped and bear activity can be a concern, so visitors are advised to secure food properly and consider the site's layout before booking.

We stayed in site 36 for 3 nights. We had a great experience. Sites are close to each other but there is plenty of room behind for bigger tents. Site is close to trash, water, and clean restrooms. Watch out for bears! One camee through our site 2 of the 3 nights looking for food. They scare off easily but be aware.

Most camps have direct access to the lake. our was number 18 and it was very good. the ones across from us was not nice. I think it was 16 and 17. The other thing we did not like was that the camps are very close to each other and crowded. (we went in July) other than that the area is beautiful and worth the money.

some of the camp sites are really close together. That takes away from the privacy. Restrooms are really well maintained by the camp hosts. We really appreciated that. View of the Crystal Crag was amazing. Milky way lined up perfectly above the rock at some point in the middle of the night.

Situated perfectly on the Mammoth Lakes Bike Trail, this is kind of the perfect jumping off point to explore the area. Aside from a few noisy neighbors we had a wonderful time
