Overall this was a nice park with a friendly staff. The facilities were clean and park maintenance was done daily. They offered a very nice cooking gazebo with 3 stoves and sinks for people who did not bring camping stoves. They also offered cabins for those who did not wish to tent or RV and they offer electricity at some tent sites. The pool and play structure would make this park attractive for families with children. While the park is nice and well maintained a lot of the trees were on the younger side and the sites are a bit close together. Once the trees mature for more shade this park will be even better. The closeness of the sites are generally not a problem, but the camper right next to mine snored very very loud. The gentleman that checked me in gave me the best site for shade in the entire park, which I greatly appreciated. In the future the owner might consider stretching the Wi-Fi out so it can be accessed from the campsites (Internet was only available close to the lodge) and installing cable TV hook-ups. All in all this was a great place to stay. I will go back there at some point and I would recommend this place to my friends. They also offer AAA and Good Sam discounts. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Camped here with other members of our RV club. The campground is ideal for RV club rallies. The staff was very helpful. You are escorted to your campsite. Numerous group facilities. It is a great base camp to tour the California Gold Country. Be careful to book away from the new campsites that were being developed until the trees mature. We will return to this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We have stayed here a total of 3 times now. It's a great place to stay to see "Gold Country" or a great staging area to go to the Bear Valley/Lake Alpine area in the winter. It's below the snow line, so you can stay here, and take a short drive to the snow. The facilities are very nice and well kept. They even have an Emu (ostrich-like bird) the kids will like. The owner lives on site, is very concerned with making sure you are happy, and seems like a really nice guy; in general. I indicated that there are "shade sides" available, but I would say just barely. There are some sites with trees, but I don't think they will make much of a difference, and am pretty sure this place would be quite hot in the summer. The Wi-Fi might just connect at your site, but will probably only be useful at/near the clubhouse. They have propane available on-site, a small store, and firewood delivered to your site for $10 a box. Reservations on-line were easy. The $40 price was for water/electric only. When I reserved online in the past, I got a AAA discount, but when we just showed up the last time I was told I had to pay cash to get the cheaper price; so you may want to bring cash. We will be staying here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nothing fancy but an economical alternative to other parks in the area. Sites are grass, utilities are in the back with one pedestal shared by four sites. When the park is not full it is simple to pull thru and have utilities on the side. Cell signal was good and no obstructions to the satellite. The $18.00 rate reflects a senior citizen discount; standard rate is $22.00. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed at Glory Hole Rec Area / Big Oak Campground for 3 nights while attending the Calavaras County Fair/Frog Jumping weekend. The campground is about 15 minutes from the fairgrounds. The camp sites are fairly good in size (we stayed in site 111) however, there is little to no shade. The weekend we spent there it was over 105 F. and could use a few trees. AC and a good generator allowed us to stay. There are no full hook-up, and water connections are not very friendly for filling your rig. There is a nice new dumping station but, it is closed until sometime in 2009. As of May 2008, the water is very low at the lake and the swimming areas is basically dirt so, there is no place for kids to swim. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a lovely BLM campground at New Melones Lake Recreation Area between Sonora and Angels Camp on Hwy 49. Boat rentals are available for fishing and there are several places from the shore to fish as well - we caught a couple of nice trout. There is a free dump station at the sister campground called Tuttletown Recreation area which is a few miles south on Hwy 49. Camped here in a Class C. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is operated by the US Bureau of Reclamation. New Melones Lake has two recreation areas as the lake spans two counties. The Glory Hole Recreation Area in Calaveras County has two campgrounds Ironhorse and Big Oak. The sites are big and paved. Each has views of the lake and surrounding hills. This is a very popular lake for boating and fishing. It has a large marina and many boats and jet skis for rent. There are also 18 miles of mountain biking trails. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
