Please save your money if you are looking for a place to camp on a lake in northern California this is not it. My personal experience: I brought my boat and booked a camp site along side my friends when we arrive the staff didn't give me a tag for my car to park later I got a hard time for not having it ended up spending the night with no problems in the morning a staff member threatened to tow my boat due to it being parked in a camp spot lying to my face saying that I had been parked for "over a week" I was forced to park near the boat ramp for the price of $7.

This is the place to unwind and enjoy with your dog, family and/or camp neighbors. Endless hiking trails everywhere to explore. Beautiful alpine lakes too. The PCT isn't far, so the chance to meet a real hiker is high up there. Come up here and relax. This is not a place to bring your power equipment to work on your brand new, top of the line, $150,000 Diesel Pusher, Mr Contractor Yelling At Your Beautiful Wife from Los Angeles.
