Important facility notices
Read these with current closure and fire notices before departure.
- Water is not available at this campground this season. Water has not been available for over 2 years due to the system breaking down. Please bring all water necessary for the duration of your stay.

- Pets must be leashed at all times.
- All equipment must fit on the site pad and parked in developed areas only.
- No all-terrain or off-highway vehicle use in the campground.
- Don't Move Firewood: Protect California's forests from tree-killing pests by buying your firewood locally and burning it on-site. For more information visit firewood.ca.gov.
- This is bear country; please take precautions and do not leave unattended food, garbage or other attractants. Use bear resistant food storage lockers or bear resistant trash cans where available. Visit www.sierrawild.gov/bears/food-storage/ for more information about food storage in bear country.
- There is an extra vehicle fee of $8.00/night on the 2nd vehicle in each single campsite and on the 3rd & 4th vehicle in any double campsite, provided these vehicles are not joined to the 1st vehicle by a hitch and towed onto the site. In the case of motorcycles, the 1st and 2nd are considered to be one vehicle and the 3rd and 4th are also considered to be one vehicle.
