The only nearby, working water source was inside the handicapped site. When I alerted the front entrance personnel as to the problem, she gave the most apathetic answer without any insight. Something close to, "Well, yeah. That happens but I'm sure they're already aware of the problem. And no, I've no idea how long it will take to fix the light or out towels in the batgroom. Maybe a few weeks." Really?!. I completely understand that we're at the site to camp, but I would've expected more as this is not our first or even third visit to the campsite. That said, this year there was no virtually no sign that the camp maintenance had cleaned the campsite. The fire pit was half full of ash and a bunch of trash was strewn over the campsite. There were signs of raking near the fire pit, but that's about it. The location and grounds were otherwise great. Can't beat the nature like Serrano and Pineknot have with the proximity to town and so many great facilities to hike, bike and explore nearby.

We stayed at #23 which was by the restrooms. The restroom doors are heavy and tend to slam so if youre sensitive to sound, this may keep you up at night/early morning. People also would run/walk through our campsite to get to the restroom. The camp sites are large and spaced a good distance apart from each other. Bathrooms were extremely clean and firewood was available for purchase at the ranger station. We had great cell phone coverage (which I tend to not want while camping) and were 5 min away from the nearest grocery store. The birds were wonderful, I recommend bringing binoculars if you like to birdwatch.

My sister and I stayed at site 23 with my two big dogs and we loved it, we both agreed we need more time to enjoy it. The campsite is next to the bathroom so its really nice and easy to walk there at night when its dark. We will definitely be back!

I literally found my new go to place!! It was an absolutely great experience. I could say nothing bad. Everything was fantastic. Rangers are extremely nice and welcoming. Bike path is just passing by the campground. Loved it! Cell reception is excellent!

Cleanest bathrooms Ive ever experienced at a campground. Wonderfully maintained camp sites. Nicest campground I have ever stayed at in my life.

Campsite (#23) very clean/raked when I arrived. This is a good site for those using solar (lots of sun). There are lots of paved bike trails. Other campers were very courteous and no noise at night. I’ve been to this campground many times and will continue to do so.

There are spickets all over, but are notified with signs not to wash dishes. This well maintained campground, as manicured as it is, should offer a wash station. Not complaining, just something they might consider. Other than that, very nice campground, very clean, friendly host, large sites, close to lake and campground bike path takes you directly to the main lake bike path. Little general store across the street and a perfect setting for groups with children or just a place to unwind for a couple nights. #RockysRoadhouse in Running Springs is a must stop for the most seriously delicious subs and deli food!!! Trust me, it's that good!

It was cold, but the amenities were well maintained and there was plenty of things to do in the surrounding area.

Park and bathrooms were very clean. I would give 5 stars if they didn't charge for the dump station and not even have a water line to flush tank.

Clean and great site super close to lake and big bear city
@Sonnyn1E453F11 · Camped on Jul 25, 2020 at Campsite #23
Will come back. Bathrooms were pretty clean. Should probably add some ventilation otherwise all that smell is trapped inside.

Campsites were clean and we felt safe. The campground was full, but it seemed like we were far from anyone. It was a great experience.
