We visited Old Shady Rest in September 2024, a small group of tent and RV dry campers. As to the negatives, there are no hookups, and you can hear some street and construction noise from the Town of Mammoth Lakes. While the camp hosts were good and friendly, they didn't seem to be eager to enforce the generator quiet hour.The good news is that the campground was well-maintained, the bathrooms clean, and the sites were not close together except for a few that seemed to be that way by design for people who wanted to camp together. Some sites were downright super large. In some other campgrounds, they could have fit 4-5 sites in the same space. Campers could walk, bike, or drive into town for every supply needed and many restaurants. The number of local natural wonders are plentiful. Hikes and bike rides straight from the campground. The municipal park, Shady Rest Park, is also near. It's all near, so yes, it's not a wilderness camp, but under the trees filled with birds, campfires, and meals being prepared on the fire ring grills, it's a pretty good place to get to all the wilderness surrounding you.

Great site right across from the restrooms.

We didnt appreciate a camper across the road running his generator all day, especially even when they were not there!

#site 51Have stayed in this cg before and will def stay again. Close to town and easily accessible. Definitely liked staying on this side of the cg, feels more secluded. Site was spacious, well maintained, and clean bathrooms
