Beautiful place near to June lake And keep in mind is definitely dry camping make sure you bring what’s needed for dry camping, they do provide bathrooms that’s about it

This is a really good camping area just 2 miles off 395. Lots of spaces and it's free. (The USFS does ask for a $10 per night donation, but it's up to you.) The only cons is that it can get noisy with lots of OHV's and off-road motorcycles plus people running generators. Still a great spot to hold up while you explore Mono Lake and Mammoth Lakes. No water or electric but vault toilets are readily available.

Nice camping spot a couple of miles off of 395 just North of Mammoth Lakes. Easy enough drive on graded dirt road to get to the campground. The campground is in Inyo National Forest and while a donation is recommended, your campsite is free - but really, give what you can. On the Thursday before labor day there were plenty of campsites from which to choose. There were more than a couple RV's and each had additional gator's and other offroad vehicles. RV Campers were decent and did not crank their generators all night, in fact I didn't hear one. There were pit toilets, but I didn't end up needing them. The 25 campsites are in the middle of a pine forest and each had a picnic table and bear box.

Great place, really quiet 10pm -6am. Just 10 per night donation. About 2 miles from 395 hwy to campground, I was a little nervous at first hauling a 32' about 13'6 high thru the dirt road, then I saw it was possible and enjoyed it. I loved this place because it is in between June Lake- silver lake and Mammoth Lakes. It's just great spot to bring your toys. Will be back next summer.

Good flowing creek along the campground. Good for playing in the water and fishing. Nice big sites.

So, it is a free usfs camp, which is rare. The area is very nice, one nominal usfs pit toilet (ie two doors two holes and the trash is extremely difficult to remove so don't do that please), and it is right next to the highway. (2 miles.) RVers would call it roughing it, and jeepers call it a hotel. Clean, obvs it has good camp hosts.

We loved this campsite 🏕. The camp host were polite. We will definitely be going back and it was really clean.

Great out-in-the-woods campground. Big flat sites under large pine trees. Free. Primitive with just a picnic table and a fire ring. No toilets, pit or otherwise, when we were there over Memorial Day weekend - dig a hole and pack out your toilet paper.
