Plan ahead of time and make sure you have at least your reservation and some firewood. Lovely place to disconnect and enjoy nature.

The Location and site was very good. Less insects in the restrooms would be perfect.

I stayed overnight here on my way to Kings Canyon national park. It is a pretty lake and great scenery. Way off the main highway but easy to get to.

Arrived and was unable to park a trailer in the spot due to a car parked near and the position of the spot. This park is not trailer friendly do not recommend. Had to head back home due to the spot not being able to park in and lost out on my money for the reservation.
