“Lovely Lake However…”

Reviewed 4/21/2023

Site Number: roadrunner 8
Overall Rating

No swimming in the lake itself. There is a pool that is open seasonally. It’s on the smallish size so, if the campgrounds are full during summer (daytime temps July-September 100°+) it is crowded. No cell service anywhere around the lake or in the campgrounds. All in all, as much as I love this little reservoir, it’s priced itself out of my budget.

“Great Weekend Getaway ”

Reviewed 4/21/2023

Site Number: Roadrunner 8
Overall Rating

Beautiful little lake wit a ton of trails! Smaller campground, I think there are 3 (Coyote, Roadrunner, and Osprey) which have a 2 car/8 person maximum. Quiet and calm, by far my favorite winter camping getaway. Prices jumped up in January 2023, with fees, $91 for 2 nights which is OUTRAGEOUS for dry camping. With camping becoming more popular during Covid, it seems all campgrounds in California have increased in price.
