Campsite was small with little shade. Also had horrific neighbors nextdoor whos goal was to intimidate and scare everyone around them. We made several complaints and nothing happened. I believe the rangers were also afraid of them, we were camping with two small children and mostly all women, it was absolutely terrible. Nothing was done about them parting until the sun came up, screaming and yelling, children openly drinking alcohol, grown men circling our campsite at night literally barking at my dog. Ive camped my entire life and I have never been more terrified and saddened by a camping experience. Thank god we have a Great Pyrenees dog that was on guard the whole time, it was an absolutely horrendous experience. It was a beautiful lake but tainted by disgusting people who also left trash everywheresad, wont be going back..

The only flat spot anywhere near our site was the pavement. Loud neighbors at all hours of the night an morning. Very friendly camp host.

This campsite was very clean. The bathrooms were well maintained and restocked daily. There is no hot running water anywhere, so just be aware of that. There are no Bear boxes. We were told to put our food in our cars daily. We were able to build a fire, which was nice for the spring cool weather. We camped in Site 20, which had a slight incline and we were able to fit 3 tents. There are two wood tables per site which take away from the space provided. In our site, and around the campgrounds, we did not receive any cellphone signal. Our provider is T-Mobile. To get signal, we had to drive 20 mins down to South Fork.
Our family of 7 was able to enjoy the campgrounds and surrounding Bass Lake area. If you want to shower, you can drive 4 mins. to Miller’s Landing. They have a general store, fast food joint, and separate public showers/laundry room. You can buy tokens which are used to turn the showers on. Nearby this campsite is also another general store called The Forks. From this campsite, you can also get to Yosemite’s Mariposa Grove South Entrance within 40 mins. From the south entrance, you can get to Yosemite Valley in an hour. If you save your entry ticket to Yosemite, you can use it for 5 days from your date of purchase. Big plus!! Overall, this campground has a great location. It’s next to a beautiful lake and near Yosemite.

This is a boon-docking site no extras at all. (Water, dump, or electricity etc.) You will have about an hour drive to Yosemite. If this is your goal find something closer trust me with hook ups. They have RV parks out there for the same price if not cheaper!!! No cell service

We had a great time. The camp host was very friendly and answered all our questions kindly. The sites and restrooms were very clean at all times. Site #20 was perfect as it is secluded from other sites and there is a game trail that runs right behind it. Every day, in the late afternoon, we saw deer, wild turkeys, and quail work their way down to the lake right next to the site. Our kids were delighted with the experience.
