Nice location next to the lake with great lake access, nice walking trail around the lake
The campsites are not too close together - good for privacy
The bathrooms are clean with running water
Cons:
The Christian camp is very loud and raucous - they are having a fantastic time but the sounds of screaming kids can be heard at all areas of the lake since it isn't very large. We were there on a night of competitions on how loud the groups can scream, so it was very loud. I asked the store manager and he said every night is loud. The noise stopped around 8:30 and after that it was quiet, but it does diminish the peace of this campsite.
ALSO, at 5AM each morning a construction crew/loggers were using loud motorized machinery to cut, load and move logs. I was awakened both mornings at 5AM to the sound of loud crashing of metal machinery and chainsaws cutting logs, and then they moved the logs down a road right in front of our campsites. The construction noise continued throughout the day, so I could not even stay and enjoy Lake Hume at all. When I checked in I was immediately told that quiet hours were 10pm-6am, but it was anything but quiet here.
I just wish I had been advised of both the Christian Camp disturbances as well as the construction/logging, I would have stayed at a different campground which were available at the time that I booked my reservation at Lake Hume. (After having slept very little the first night, I checked with other campgrounds in the area and they were all full, so I could not go anywhere else after I had arrived.) I drove all the way down from the state of Washington to enjoy a peaceful camping experience by a high Sierra Lake, and got sorely disappointed by loud sounds like I was in a city.
