Lake Olancha Resort, RV Park, Hotel, Motel, Cabin & Campground — Hotel in Olancha

Visited April 8-12, 2023 in our Class C RV. Crisp clean air with perfect views of seemingly up-close snowcapped mountains stretching for several miles. Very stunning.

Local lake surrounding camp sites is lovely with various types of bird life. Also noted small butterflies & dragon flies.

Our 2-year-old poodle loved it as he had free reign of the area and enjoyed dipping into the lake, sipping water, and swimming.

Camp sites (we had #20) have full hook ups and are close together. Sties are very long, separated by in ground railroad ties, and can accommodate any length of RV combinations. There is no shrubbery of any sort between sites. Each site also has a 4-foot diameter circular corrugated metal rim that would serve as a container for camp fires. The camp area was mostly vacant when we were there, so site closeness was not an issue for us.

Camp host (Eric) was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating.

Entire area was of fine sandy-type gravel which found its way into our Class C RV, especially having an active dog. Reminds us of beach camping. Our broom got a workout.

Internet connectivity was excellent and AT&T mobile connections were fine.

This is clearly an older RV park with much differed maintenance on cottages and wooden fencing. Zip line is not useable. Paddle boats & canoes are available. There are three large double decker patio areas along the lake front which are in a lovely setting having great views of the lake and snowcapped mountain range, but they need attention.

It is apparent that much effort has been put into this RV Park as water, electricity & waste port are in brand spanking new condition. This RV Park is seemingly a work in progress and has much great future potential, especially considering its proximity to local attractions and points of interest.

The park is off a ways from the 395 but we never heard any traffic sounds. Overall, it was always quiet and peaceful.

Older mature trees were just sprouting their green spring buds. New saplings are planted both at the front and rear of each campsite.

We view this RV Park as very scenic and rustic and...

I took a two day camping trip here this week. This place has an extremely friendly staff. They make sure to drive around the grounds throughout the day. There are a couple of two story decks overlooking the small lake. You can fish here but it is catch and release only. They provide a couple of small tow boats and kayaks to use freely. They also provide propane BBQ grills for free. They have about 8 tent sites, one of which I used. Be advised that they are not shaded so you will need to bring your own, but make sure that you have weights for them because around 3 pm the wind kicks in and it is strong. There are plenty of RV spots and a few “cabins”. I quote that because these are more like above ground houses that appear very very nice. They have a tennis court, a small children’s play area and a basket ball court as well. I used the Hipcamp app to make my reservation and it was very user friendly. Upon arrival I text messaged the owner and this was how I checked in. They were extremely friendly. During the day I drove up to Mt Whitney to hike. This was my first experience camping in the desert and I had a great time. I highly...

Seams to be a fairly new RV park as of spring 2023. Owners trying their best on making this a good park. Beautiful scenery to the west, fantastic vista's to the East. Owner says you can park in either direction. Park is set beside a small picturesque lake. Great for campers or "week-enders". Sites are all sand, most with full hookups and long. Large class " A" coaches will find it challenging. No OTA. Extremely large entry off of hiway 395 ( you will definitely not miss it). 1/4 mile entry drive on sand to a unattended "checkin-office shack". Should call and arrange site, (hopefully you will find the correct phone number). Faucets have a 40 psi restrictor occasionally psi drops to 20 - full timers should make sure their...
