Lovely park. Well maintained and clean bathrooms. The only complaint is there is a dog that seems to be trapped in one of the boat slips on the other side of the jetty. Barked all night which prevented any sleep. But that’s not the fault of the park. Some boat owner doesn’t care about its dog.

I thought it was relaxing, peaceful. however suddenly a business pulled up out of a van selling ice cream off a cart like a swat meet, beeping a loud horn. Since when is this the city? Crying children screaming and running through camp sites after the sugar, who even permitted a business to run out of here? That's wrong.

It's summer, so dry grass. Be careful with the campfire. There was no attendant at the kiosk. Check in at 2 pm, and we arrived a little before 2 pm. We went out the next day, and there's the kiosk attendant present with plenty of cars checking in. We got in line to check in, but when 12 pm. struck, the staff left for lunch. We were still not checked in. At least it's paid online. Some sites are dirty from previous campers, and no one picked it up. On the positive side, the walkways are concrete, and we saw quite a few bunny rabbits. We also got lucky with the cool weather, and I got lucky to get a shade in my site. It's always nice to camp. Brannan Island has potential, but it seems neglected. Can't say anything about restrooms and showers because I did not use those. No one bothered us, so I'm always a happy camper. I will not come back here anymore. California still has beautiful and well maintained campgrounds. Ca state parks need to get their act together.

Pros: * fantastic spot for fishing..bring you gear and the fishing license they don't sell it here * The park provides plenty of open space and large "yards" around campsites, allowing for various activities and a feeling of roominess. * The restroom facilities are clean and well-kept * The staff members are friendly and helpful, and there's a convenient on-site store where you can purchase fishing supplies Cons: * Some individual camping spots, particularly the fire rings, are in need of maintenance and repair. * Be prepared for consistent and strong winds throughout the day * there's a noticeable amount of trash scattered in various areas, such as bottles, paper plates, and plastic bags

This is my second time here. I enjoyed the experience and being far enough away from other campers. The pros: inexpensive ($36 a night), a lot of space for tents. Great for kids or adult kids to ride scooters and bicycles. A great swimming area. Cons: There was a sign stating no campfires (no wood and no charcoal), which to me defeats the camping experience. The shower water was extremely hot. Almost too hot to shower. Almost every restroom door was locked because guests did not check the locking mechanism, so when they shut the door upon leaving, the door would lock. The owners should invest in better locks. Overall, I would definitely recommend Brannan Island. And, make sure to bring quarters for the shower. $.50 and the water runs for about 30 minutes

Campground is open and safe. A few campsites are far from the restrooms so plan ahead if you have young kids. There is a nice swimming area nearby if you or your kids like swimming or boating/kayaking activities. Bring your beach tent or canopy to deal with the sunlight. Water taps are available or the campsites. Bring your music system and plan other activities. Enough restrooms are available. Do not park roadside even if the space is available, rangers can give the warning and then give the tickets.

Brannan Island is 10 minutes from my house. We've camped here for many years. It had more bushes and ticks back then. They really cleaned it up. It's very nice! Lots of shade and bathrooms are decent

It has an awesome view of the river as the sun rises over it. Really well kept campground. Very little trash. Super nicely mowed grass. Very little light pollution, you can see the stars. The campground also has lots of tables. There are also spigots at most of the campgrounds. Overall it is a really good campsite overlooking the Sacramento river.

Very green, quiet (except for the nearby interstate), San Joaquin river is adjacent, 3 mile easy trail. Has showers, toilets, running water. Lots of folks in their RVs, campers, tents. The grass makes tent sleeping easier lol! Fishing and bike riding can be enjoyed as well. Nice little close by get away.

Quiet....road that takes you around the loop is pretty rough,so pay attention..small potholes all over,but big enough to catch you off guard if your going to fast..there Iis no shoulder,so be mindful that people walk this road with their dogs... Lots of waterfowl. Several swan couples as well. My visit also included heading back to their group, a few wayward goats..the herd dog seemed exasperated and didn't seem to mind the intervention.

Very great park!!! Had a wonderful time there. Even on a cloudy day we had a great experience, it was as beautiful as it could be on a sunny day. Recommend to everyone for sure! The main thing is you don't wanna be there on a rainy day, thanks god we had a great timing even on this raining season
