Very well shaded place! Great camp hosts!
@Christine33606 · Camped on Jun 4, 2025 at Campsite #8
This is a very quiet campground. Lots of trees and shade. Not as busy as the other campgrounds at Pomona. There was a nice playground near the restrooms. All of facilities were well kept. I also noticed their horseshoe pit. If you're not wanting to be right on the water, this is a fantastic campground and I would highly recommend it!

Still one of the cleanest USACE bathrooms I've ever been in. Well kept, quiet, and tucked away from the other areas. I left a review last spring about the lack of hot water. Well, this year there was PLENTY of hot water to shower. See you next year.

I had a nice pull through site for the three nights I was there. Since it was very hot, I ran my air conditioner most of the time. I needed a few days to decompress and this was good for me. I had water on site and used the dump site when I was leaving. Very relaxing.

Great spot to stay! There was a storm that passed through one night and the camp host was out picking up limbs first thing in the morning. The public bathroom has one stall for men and one for women that is a toilet AND a shower. So it was occupied most of the time. Its new and very nice though, unfortunately for the four days we were there it wasnt cleaned. Otherwise everything else was in tip top shape and well kept!
@JoryCA142FF901 · Camped on May 13, 2024 at Campsite #26
Hands down the cleanest bath house Ive ever been in. My only suggestion would be to turn the hot water higher. I had my shower all the way hot and it was still pretty cold. But Ill still be back in the future. Place looked great. Green and freshly mowed.
@MelanieS829936 · Camped on Sep 28, 2023 at Campsite #5
1 bathroom is not enough for this park! It is very HOT and VERY slippery! And the water doesn't get very hot. When the park has alot of visitors you have to wait in line to take a shower or use the toilet because it is all 1 room. Usually stay 10+ more times a year but only stayed 3 times this year because of bathroom.

Very nice place to camp cant wait to go next year. Very well kept up and the people that run the campground very friendly and everyone around the campground is well.

Nothing special, just needed a place to stop and sleep.
@DanielR3951934 · Camped on Sep 1, 2023 at Campsite #24
We stayed at campsite 24. There is a large black locust tree growing there with very large thorns. We were fortunate we did not suffer any flat tires or thorns thru our flip-flops. The site does not have shade during the hottest part of the day. The COE built a new bathhouse for the campground but it is too small for the number of campers. They need to build an additional bathhouse to adequately serve the number of campers.

Quiet, private, away from the hustle and bustle
@JamesH5225020 · Camped on Jul 24, 2023 at Campsite #4
Multiple extremely shady campsites. Many with water and electricity, no sewer. There is a nice slow running River nearby with a boat launch. At the time I was here the river was running maybe at about 1 mph. Easy kayaking heavily wooded area on the back side of the lake Pomona. No walking trails to speak of. We could take a 2-mile walk around the area and down a gravel road and back. Campsites in the fall will be limited by the walnut trees dripping sap whenever that starts to happen. There are a great number of walnut trees. We plan on coming back multiple times in the future.

@LutherC5630979 · Camped on Sep 5, 2022 at Campsite #4
The hosts are very friendly. Even if you make a mistake they just come out and ask how they can help . It is very quiet here even when the park is full

We had a Great time and the sites were shady most of the day. We also enjoyed how Quiet the park was and the camp host were great at checking on you and making sure everything was alright. We wil camp here again and it will be soon.
@MarkJ8680764 · Camped on Jun 22, 2022 at Campsite #18
What a beautiful park!!!! We have been coming to Pamona for at least 25 years and have stayed in most of the campsites but Carbolyn was one we had never stayed at. When we made this reservation, the other campgrounds were pretty booked up and Carbolyn was the only one with a site available for all the days we were looking for. I booked it and crossed my fingers we would like it. Like is not a strong enough word. We absolutely loved that park and will probably try to stay there from now on when we go to Pamona. The cam hosts were amazing as well. I would recommend this campground to everyone even though that may make it difficult for me to make a reservation. LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

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!!!
