They will nickel and dime you for everything. Campsites allow for two cars but they will only let you drive one car with the price of reservation. Second car is $20/day as if you're taking an extra space that someone else would've used. Have a pet? Pay up $7/day. Brought a paddle board? Pay up $3/day each! It really adds up and it shouldn't! And all of your excuses for these fees don't stand up to logic. Otherwise the lake is great.

Very beautiful. Lake is majestic. Lots of pines, very tall. Such a cool climate. You can go there and be with family. Just sitting on the bench and watching the lake suffice.. ❤️❤️❤️

We lucked out and got one of the best campsites ever. We were right on the water yet also had shade. The deer would come down in the morning to sip water in the lake. We love the waterfalls, even though they’re man-made and all of us enjoyed a cold plunge. We also were thrilled that we were so close to the water so we could throw out our paddle boards and other flotation devices. The campgrounds are kept very clean.

Sly Park is a beautiful campground. It was well maintained with sites right on the lake. We had a group site with bathrooms(vault) and its own dock. There are plenty of trees and we had no problem finding level spot for our tent. I highly recommend.

Had a blast as usual, pup loved it also. Rangers and park staff are absolutely awesome and extremely friendly. There's a Country store just before the entrance, if you need a few supplies. Or there's a Safeway a few miles down the road if you need more than a little. If you need fire wood, there's a gentleman that sells bundles on the way up. Great prices and way better than Safeway. He also sells wood carvings. Make time to hike to the waterfall also, definitely worth it.

Our quick hideaway close to Sacramento. If it’s winter bring chains. Steep hills. Port-a potties throughout. Plenty of picnic tables and grills. Trails for hiking.

Kind of low but great kayaking, fishing and camping. These rains should help to fill it up.
