Very nice campground! Clean close to lake I wish it wasnt so cold , if your tent camping prepare for cold weather, and bring lots of firewood
@PatriciaA12078 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #54
Love this CG. The spaces are roomy and the views are too die for. The host keeps the park up and bathroom/showers clean.

Our family has been coming here for over 30 years. Silver Lake is my favorite place to stay in the loop. It is family/ kid friendly. We always have the best time.

This was one of my favorite stays as we traveled across America visiting as many parks as we could in 6 months. The park is in a beautiful and pristine setting. The park personal were friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were clean and picked up.
@WilliamGF1020C · Camped on Oct 20, 2024 at Campsite #52
The campground was clean and quiet. The restrooms were clean and operational. I wish, at least as of 10 PM, the motorhomes and trailers would turn off their porch and patio lights. Basically, their exterior lights. I wish the lights around the restrooms were a little dimmer After 10 PM. Clearly, im a tent camper.

Fall colors were beautiful!
@YingC4560361 · Camped on Oct 18, 2024 at Campsite #21
Super close to the lake and private.
@WILLIAMM503355 · Camped on Oct 14, 2024 at Campsite #57
Camp ground, camp site, restrooms and camp host were very good. The wind was strong at times. The trees were yellow and beautiful.
@federicopAB78D · Camped on Oct 14, 2024 at Campsite #51
Excellent campground, when we came we found deers within! There are showers and correct restroom. There where also selling timber, which was important cause in mid-October it was cold (below zero during the night).1h drive to the west Yosemite entrance.
@KarenW6722333 · Camped on Oct 14, 2024 at Campsite #50
Silver Lake Campground is in a beautiful location, June Lake Loop, surrounded by mountains and lakes! Campground hosts keep the restroom clean and they are very pleasant. Showers are available also. Both times staying there people were quite so if you want to party please go elsewhere! Across the road there is a hiking trail that leads to awesome views and lakes!

This used to be one of my favorite campgrounds, and maybe the magic has worn off because Ive stayed so many times. On a clear day, the lakefront view is unquestionably spectacular. I tent camp and it used to not bother me that this place predominantly hosts big RVs. Now when I pull into the campground, it feels like one giant RV parking lot. Most of the choice rustic sites are closer to the lake. Several are just OK. But there are about ten great ones close to the shoreline They are pretty difficult to reserve, so plan your visit at least six months in advance if you want to be near the water. Definitely worth the effort.If you want to take a shower, prepare to walk. The facilities are clear down at the opposite end of the property. But at least theyre good and hot. This is definitely a fishermans campground, but it feels pretty welcoming to everyone. And the nearby cafe and store are a real treat. And of course the June Lake Loop and proximity to lots of trails, attractions, and excursions cant be beat. I had some bad luck this year with really loud neighbors who didnt respect quiet hours. I dont get the sense that the camp hosts make much of an effort to enforce quiet hours either. As well, you have to make peace with constant hum of RV generators. Im gonna skip coming here for a few years and hopefully someday Ill rediscover Silver Lake Campground with fresh eyes. For you newbies, reserve early and enjoy the view!

Campsite was beautiful, was a short walk to the lake and general store. Our site was next to many trees which made us feel as though we had privacy and still included with the other sites. Bathrooms were well maintained daily. Our stay was very windy at the end of the night.
@Gregoryr04F79D · Camped on Sep 29, 2024 at Campsite #14
Unless you pay for my gas to get there ,there isnt anything that you could do to make my stay any better
@JohnW4841416 · Camped on Sep 29, 2024 at Campsite #39
One of our favorites. The only negative comment would be there is not a dump site.
@HerbertB52C47A · Camped on Sep 22, 2024 at Campsite #54
If youre looking for a place to go camping, Silverlake Campground would be the best It is beautiful in between mountains in the Sierras with a beautiful landscape and a beautiful lake. Nice parking places very safe, clean bathrooms.
@ConnieB8511457 · Camped on Sep 13, 2024 at Campsite #50
Absolutely love Silver Lake in September. No mosquitos and weather is outstanding. Campsites are clean and the bathrooms and showers are bleached daily. We have been coming here for years and it is a pleasure to see camphosts who really care about the campground. Camphosts Mark, Betty & Scott are very friendly and are always available for help.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
