Campground 11 is very good compared to others. Very clean place right next to the river. Safeway and starbucks 5 mins away from the campground

Nice campsite location but hundreds of flys coming out of the vault toilets and a lot of ants in the campsites

The restrooms are well maintained compared with Yosemite and June lake, is a good place to camping, however the noisy highway takes away the peaceful that nature offers. Overall we had a enjoyable time.
