Lake George Campground

Luke Gommermann

Very nice campground. Hosts are pleasant, and it is great to have some first come options in the area. I do think that for $34/night, there should be soap in the bathrooms, and I do think an additional charge of $10/night for a second car is steep. Other than that, great place to stay.

I have camped at Lake George years prior and had a wonderful experience with other camp hosts. Unfortunately our recent trip to Lake George was ruined by a discriminatory camp host, Gary. My friends and I stayed at a Lake George campground on the night of 8/29. Gary met us with hostility and urged us to leave the moment we arrived, despite multiple campsites becoming available the next day. We love this campsite and decided to put the hosts disdain for us aside and make a plan in order to secure one of the available sites for the next day and rest of the weekend. Since all sites were full, the guests at Campsite 1 graciously let us share their space, and the girls at Campsite 2 offered us their site for the following day. However, when we informed the camp host, Gary, about this arrangement, he responded with hostility once more, making us feel unwelcome. Despite setting up our site early on 8/30 at this first come first serve campground, Gary sold it to another (caucasian) group later that morning, disregarding our prior communication. We were nothing but polite and respectful for the entirety of this situation. While other campers, who were Caucasian, received friendly treatment and even gifts, we—three young women of color—were met with condescension and forced to leave. Gary's behavior appeared discriminatory and smiled as we left in tears, and I believe his continued presence as a camp host could jeopardize the safety and comfort of other guests. I urge other women of color to be cautious if this is the camp host you interact with when you arrive. We have left reviews at the mammoth welcome center with the hope that he be removed as a camp host.

Our experience at Lake George was enhanced by the kindness of the ranger, who instructed us to find a suitable campsite and cautioned us to secure the orange cone to prevent day users from entering the designated camp areas. We arrived on a non-holiday Wednesday and found many available sites. The location was breathtaking, but the wind picked up later in the day, so it's crucial to have a well-secured tent. Please note that bears are present in the area, and all food items must be stored in the bear lockers. The campsites are clean and well-maintained, with flush toilets and potable water. Day users may pass through the campsite to access the restrooms. The sites are spacious, providing privacy between neighbors.

My husband and I drive a lot to Mammoth. We have a cabin on Silver Lake. We found Lake George years ago and hiked around it. We now do this every year because it’s not a long or hard hike. It’s also beautiful. When you walk on trail to Lake George you can continue to Barrett Lake and TJ Lake. We walk by all of them.

Very clean and great view, but very windy and cold on the lake side.
