Site A07 is our favorite spot in the campground and it never fails to please us. The view of the cove is great, the water is close, and the site has plenty of room. Also, the restrooms and shower house are always clean.

Really nice and clean. Close to Stockton if you need supplies. Attendant was helpful getting an air mattress aired up when my buddies inverter went out.

Only bad experience was when I was fishing and the people kayaking crossed all of my lines. We shared the bank with them all day and when they left, we put our lines in and they crossed everything one of them coming back. I kayak too, but that was a dick move.

Don’t be that person.
