I went to this campground with least expectations as our first choice was a one at North Lake Tahoe. But to my surprise, this was a beautiful campsite. We got the site facing the reservoir. Sunset was beautiful. Also the site itself was well maintained and pretty decent.

Over all the place was nice, great views. But it was very windy and at times was unbearable to be outside

It was great to relax here by the lake. Mostly quiet on the lake. The fires in the area during this time was slightly unpleasant. The lake level was pretty low but it was mentioned on the website.

So ridiculous how many “rules” are out here. We knew we weren’t allowed to ride OHVs within the campground, but forest service will not allow vehicles to even be removed from toy haulers. Our friends in the site next to us could not even use their trailer because they couldn’t unload their RZR. Campground is dusty. We left the day of our reservation and will not be back.

The host and the views were amazing. We had to go thru the back ways (Prosser Dam) due to the dam being built but it was a nice scenic route/detour. It does get bit dusty and the inconvenience of not having water at the campground was a bummer but the Boca lake was lose enough to go dive in during the day

We've camped at Boca several times. This year, the forest ranger is constantly visiting and giving campers a hard time. Inspecting camps while we are out sitting around. With everything going on this year, we are trying to get away and he came everyday we were there and bothered us. We spoke to other campers who were also hassled. We are cancelling the rest of our reservations for the year and going elsewhere. Between the bathrooms being dirty and being hassled, we were very disappointed.
