The area is beautiful. The lake was great. We paddle boarded a lot. The water (at least in beginning of October) was quite chilly. The air temp was nice and warm. Bears. There are Bears. During the day we saw at least one Bear in the campground. At night we saw 2 Bears on separate nights. Maybe it was the same one, who knows. But they are there are they will eat your food or anything that smells good to them. Woke up in the middle of one night to screams of bloody murder women, kids, men, screaming and yelling BEARRRRRR!!!! But I don't think the Bears hurt anyone, they are just looking for food. We have a camp trailer so we felt secure. Tent folks may want to think twice, but again, the Bears seem more interested in food the people. Each site has a Bear proof food box. And the box is really large so you can secure a lot of food. The walk to the lake is a little bit even from the close end of the campground, but well worth it. We went to the beach across the street at the big Lake Tahoe Lake and the water was choppy and no way you would paddle board there. Fallen Leaf lake the same day was calm and smooth. No problem at all to paddle board or kayak. All in all it is well worth it and I would and will go again.Verizon had one bar most of the time. Sometimes zero coverage. Mostly texts would work and calls would not.
