First time here and we loved it. The bathrooms are kept pretty clean and so is the site. It was quiet and the host (the guy) didn’t get his name was very accommodating !

I love camping. Reconnecting with the quiet solitude of nature to fully relax and disconnect from city life is truly magical... however being woken up by pounding live rock music at 11:30 PM for two nights in a row is kinda harshing my vibe. I can't advise anyone camp here unless they plan to be out til 2 AM partying... for everyone else, there's got to be better places in Mammoth. And there are absolutely better places in California. Will be returning to work next week even more tired and burnt out than before. It's a shame because the grounds themselves are really nice.

Loved this campground! We stayed for 10 days and still did not get to see or visit all the places we wanted to. Amazing Camp Host , Mike and Trudy answered every question with kindness, helped in directing us to some of the best trails, restaurants and more. Clean restrooms, dog friendly, fire pit, picnic table, good size bear box, hiking trails right out your door, shopping near by. We will defiantly be back.

One of the best camping places in Mammoth lakes. Well maintained and close to the town. The toilets were clean and had good lighting. Would love to come again next year :)

Delightful campground! Close to Mammoth, making it incredibly accessible. Well-maintained with clean bathrooms, flush toilets, and good running water. Plenty of sites, but be sure to reserve well in advance. Good mountain biking, hiking, lakes, and parks nearby.

Very relaxing campground. Serene, quiet, and clean. The sky at night is beautiful and the camp hosts and managers were all nice people and take their posts seriously. Fair warning though, the bears around Mammoth are VERY friendly. We were warned and given strict instructions by the fee collector about “bear-proofing” our campsite. We did take him seriously and did everything he asked, our only mistake was we thought bears would not approach if we were still out and about the campsite. Not the case. PLEASE take the bear regulations seriously and also lock up ALL food after sundown. My friend and I feel awful for contributing to the bear problem, but I’ll redeem myself by putting the word out about the problem. This goes for any camping in Mammoth, and bears are getting very crafty. Please take precautions!

It's a nice location, close to town and services, but old and outdated with many of the sites too small for today's average size RV making them difficult park. Like most Department of Agriculture; Forest Service campgrounds that are contracted out to third party vendors that double the camping fees but don't maintain the park.

Really nice camp ground! There were plenty of spots when i was there. Lots of tall lovely pine trees. It was pretty cheap too, fire pits and flush toilets. I really enjoyed my stay there! It's also close to town. Just be careful setting up tents, there were a few ant holes around.
