Every year on the first weekend in August, we reunite families from Nevada and Utah to camp for four nights. The fishing, hiking and trail riding is amazing. The view of the mountains and lakes is breath taking. Every day we see Deer and plenty of wildlife. My favorite is to fly fish the stream from Electric lake and to fish, Mammoth lake and Millers flat. There is everything there for children and Adults. We set up a volleyball net, play cornhole and horse shoes. At night sitting by the campfire roasting marshmallows for the smores. My favorite place to go every year!

The campground and our particular site was clean and the addition of concrete tables was really nice. This has been a favorite location for our family for years. Keep up the good work.

We absolutely loved it here and wish we could have stayed longer. It was clean and private. We love campground where the host leaves us alone instead of passing by every hour to check on the site. For the time we were there it felt like our own piece of paradise. There are plenty atv trails around that are moderately challenging. We had a 7 year old on his first 4 wheeler and he and his little atv handled the trails just fine. We did not get a chance to kayak or fish but from what we saw it looks to be a great area for both. There is no cell phone service within the campground but there are cell service spots along hwy 31 with 5-10 minutes of the campground to check in if you need to with family/friends.

**NOW FOR WHY I GAVE IT 3 STARS INSTEAD OF 5***: Upon arrival to my campspot in which i had a reservation for there was a couple in my campspot and I asked them if they had a reservation. They said no and that the camp host that was currently there had put them there and this was their third time moving. I felt really bad and didnt want them to move again so I went on a search to find the main camphost and he said the other camp host that put th other couple in our reservation really messed up. and so i told the main camphost i would drive around and try to find another spot and when i found another spot the other couple had packed up and found another spot so i could have my reservation spot. all this took several hours to conclude and inconvienced me and the very very nice couple that chose to move to another spot once again. This 3 star rating is mostly on their behalf. I didnt finish setting up camp until 1130pm and delayed me checking in with my family who was worried sick because i shouldve checked in hours ago. I hope the Forest Service reads this and corrects and improves their check in process. We loved our stay once we got settled in. We will be back in September!

The directions to the location were not very helpful. There are no signs that say “Lake Canyon Recreation Area” on the main road. Finding the right turn off was very difficult. The campground appears to be called “Miller Flat” once you enter the campground. But still, there were no signs indicating where to turn to find the camp ground.
