Gooseberry Reservoir is our favorite place. We always catch plenty of fish. We camp right along the reservoir so great fishing is only a few feet away. Camping spots are spacious. It is so peaceful.

We love Gooseberry Reservoir, one of my favorite places to camp. We arrived to find the camp sites filled with sheep, the problem being their dogs. In the past we have had them get in our garbage during the night. This visit we could not let our own dogs out of our Motorhome without 4 large white dogs charging and barking. I tried to discuss the trouble with the sheep herders but they were hard to communicate with and could care less. Luckily later in the day while playing with my dog (he's a talker) the sheep were spooked and ran over the mountain and were not in the camp the remainder of our visit.

Very convenient campsite next to the lake. We did wake up one morning with a herd of sheep in camp and the dogs were in our garbage's.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
