We did love it even if was hot and we had to leave a day early. My husband and I decided to take our 15 year old daughter, but it was too hot. We did in joy the lake, but we were on lot 2 and since the water raised up, the water smelled a bit funky. The bathroom didn't work so they had portable bathrooms. It's a shame that I didn't know that we could have gotten a refund, we requested 2 days, but only stayed 1. :(

We came here on a Sunday.
Camp spots are beautiful with electrical outlets, very picturesque locations. Nice and flat spots for pitching your tent and a separate place close by with a fire pit and bench.
There was no campground personnel to check us in. No presence really. Toilets (3 in the camp ground) were filthy. They were clogged and feminine products thrown on the floor.
We had to drive 45 mins back to Sanger for washroom needs.
I want to believe the park is usually clean but we just came on a bad day when it was not maintained well. I may come back again just for the beautiful and serene views of the lake.

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.

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.
