Rangers and sherifs drive by your campsite way too often. Everything else is good! Beautiful sunsets and sunrises by the lake.

Lake had Algae Blooms so we couldn’t swim or let our dog get in the water according to the rangers. It was over 110 degrees for 3 days. We tried to fish early in the morning but it was so hot the fish were too far out in the colder water and without a boat it was pointless. We left the campsite 2 days early and moved to Bass Lake for the rest of our vacation. This lake would be great in fall or spring when the temperatures are not so hot. I will never go back here in the summer.
