Site 38 and 40 are very challenging to back into with a trailer especially if there is another vehicle parked in the site across the road (site 37 I believe). In fact someone with a 20+ foot trailer has to approach going in the opposite/wrong direction as it's almost impossible to navigate backing in at the angle present if approached when campsite is on the driver's side. This is a reflection of my own experience and observing other people trying to back in. This should be noted in "The need to know" or spur description. Bathrooms and campground well maintained by alternating attentive hosts.

Camp hosts helped make a family trip go smoothly. Great location: peaceful and of course beautiful.

Nice, shady campground with good amenities (clean restrooms, water access). Couldn't locate a place to dump trash though. The camp host was friendly and also sells firewood bundles for $8. Fairly quiet area and set back off the main road a bit - I have camped here quite a few times over the years. It's a good location for heading off to your Mammoth Lakes adventures like fishing at Crowley or Convict Lake and Owens River or heading through town to Twin Lakes, Lake Mary, George and Horseshoe Lake or to the Mammoth Adventure Center, San Juoquin River/Rainbow Falls/Devil's Postpile area. Saw a few chipmunks and ground squirrels and several birds in the campground. We camped the very last week of the season and it looked like they were replacing the old wooden picnic tables with new picnic tables.
