I love this camping area. I’ve camped there since I was a kid. However, there was a long pause for me and going back. We had a blast. I will say one of the ladies in the front is kind of grumpy. I think she could work on being friendlier other than that it was fantastic. Probably be there again for this summer.

We stayed at site 48. It was near the lake with a beautiful sunset view of the Sierra Foothills. Good Showers but the electricity in the bathroom was not working. It is close to a road but at night was not noisy. We had a shade tree so it was very pleasant. The table at the site also had a covering over it. Level parking for our van.

Campground is in disrepair. Garbage left in our campsite upon arrival. Water faucet was (as documented) literally 75’ away. We left the campground and did not set up. What a dump!
