Mountain Oak

Loved being able to walk to the lake and hang out for the day. There’s tons of space at the campground and out kids loved being able to run free in the woods.

was nice and quiet.

Super clean and open campsite with plenty of shade and good flat places to put tents. Parking spaces are a little small, though, so be aware of this if you plan to bring two cars for one spot.

This campsite is operated by American Land & Leisure, an authorized 3rd party. Though we did not interact with the site host, we often saw them patrolling the area via golf cart and checking to make sure the bathrooms were in good shape. They also have firewood available to purchase via drop box at the back of the loop. Though this site does have flush toilets and water from spigots, there are no sinks in the bathroom. It wasn't a problem for us as we brought our own soap and towels, but we were surprised to see that. The campsites are very close together and there is little privacy between you and your neighbors. The site was clean and well maintained, including the firepits and picnic tables. There's a small lake is across the road and the town of Wrightwood is 10-15 minutes away if you'd rather pick up your breakfast or dinner than cook on the grill (we did both).

The on-site camp host (Jeff & his companion dog Jack) was very attentive to the campground. He ensured that it was always clean and enforced quite hours when it was necessary. Excellent job--we had a great time.

A wonderful campsite: clean and well kept. Our spot wasn't marked with our reservation because we booked online, and it was confusing to know if we were in the right place. When we arrived the site manager told us to leave, but he did find our reservation (and we enjoyed chatting with him from a distance).

We didn’t mind being able not to make a fire, because it helped the campground be less populated. We loved having the campground to ourselves.

All fires were prohibited the day we got there without our knowing so we couldn't cook (no campfires, no stove fires). When we came home and checked email (no reception at the site), Recreation.gov had sent us an email notifying us of the fire prohibition on our second day already there. Other than that, we had a lovely time. The bathrooms were kept clean. Other people overall maintained appropriate social distancing between campsites, which we appreciated. Jackson Lake is walkable, even for our 6 and 4 year olds.

Beautiful my kids love it!

Wonderful campground. Visited on a Monday-Wednesday and nearly had the place to ourselves. Hiking and lounging around the lake were highlights. This was our second visit and we can't wait to return again!
