We almost missed this jewel because the map here is wrong. Turn off of 395 due west onto Whitney Portal Road and head up the hill, into the Alabama Hills Recreational area. You will start to see the Alabama Hills, wondrous piles of rock, on either side. You will see a paved road off to your right in between the rocks called "Movie Flats". There's a big white stone there with a plaque containing information about the history of Alabama Hills. Turn right there and you can park anywhere 1.5 miles from where you first turned in throughout the park. It's all boondocking, no cell service and no Wi-Fi - but it is not to be missed and it's free. It is a magical, beautiful place, camping in among the rocks with the breathtaking view of the Sierra Nevada and Mt. Whitney. Big rigs or tent camping. Totally peaceful. Fantastic hiking or discovering by auto. The night/star photography was amazing. Would stay here forever if I could! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Note, this is dispersion camping and there is no charge. Located about 2 miles west of Lone Pine off Whitney Portal Road - on both sides of the road. One of the prettiest places we have ever camped at in our travel trailer. Scenes from over 400 movies have been shot here, so you most likely have seen it. I would camp here again.

The park is very clean including the restrooms and showers. It offers Tengo Wi-Fi which we didn't use. Our Verizon air card worked very fast. Although big rigs (40') can fit here, the sites are very limited because of tree overhangs, rocks and narrow sites. The office staff had no clue as to what size RV would fit on a site. We had to go around and look ourselves and some of them that they chose would never work for a 40' motorhome. We had a pull-through but had to back into it because of making a turn with an overhanging tree. Some serious tree-trimming is needed in the park. We were also offered sites #1-18 completely surrounded with 2-3' boulders on narrow sites. Those aren't good for a long motorhome. We were shocked at the $40 charge. Because of that we probably will not stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped with 9 other rigs for our monthly club rally. Staff could not have been nicer or more accommodating. I have reviewed this place several times and always find it more than satisfactory. Clean, well maintained. Lone Pine is hot and windy, but lots of great history and sight-seeing here. We camped here in a Motorhome.

An Okay park for overnight or a couple of nights. Spaces are adequate to completely extend the slides and to put out the main awning. Wi-Fiwas marginal. Free for 24 hours but the connection was weak where we stayed. Big rig accessible, no problem there. 1/2 the park is paved. The other is mostly gravel and a lot of dirt. Happens to be a perfect distance to stop overnight between Reno and Palm Springs so we will continue to stay here on our way up and down. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A bit tight for big rigs but doable without stress. Campground roads have new asphalt. The sites are desert sand. About one third of the sites have a concrete patio and raised charcoal grill. The rest of the sites have a fire pit with a grill attachment. Sites are well maintained as is the entire park. Restrooms and laundry are spotless. Spa was hot and clean. The store is well stocked and features American made items. The social room is nice and coffee and muffins are served there in the mornings. Fantastic views of Lone Pine Peak and Mt. Whitney. Lone Pine is a 3 mile drive north of the park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Well-marked access off Hwy 395, south of Lone Pine . Check in is convenient with friendly staff. Located in the rural high desert of the Eastern Sierra with great views of Mt Whitney. Newly paved interior roads with lots of room to maneuver. Wide, sandy, level sites with trees between sites. Panic table and fire ring at each site. Utilities all conveniently located and worked properly. Limited cable TV but unobstructed satellite connection. Wi-Fi worked fine. Pool was closed, but the hot tub was fine. Park is well maintained, and showers/bathrooms were clean and modern. Excellent store on site with propane. Pet and kid friendly. No train, plane, or traffic noise. Park is located far away from city lights so the night sky is bright and crystal clear. 100 miles from Furnace Creek, Death Valley. Stores, fuel, and other supplies in Lone Pine. Great place to get away from the big city for a restful stay or just overnight driving Hwy 395. Will return. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

For a park out in the middle of nowhere, this is a nice little park. The drive in paths were newly asphalted. The pool was closed but the hot tub (103*F) was very nice with jets that worked good. Nice little convenience store well stocked. Wi-Fi was Tengo, free and fairly slow but solid. Utilities newer and solid. Staff was nice. We will stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Decent park. Check in by friendly and efficient staff. Internet was included and worked well. We entered before a rain storm. Since much of the area is not paved, there was a muddy mess on the ground. If no rain, and any wind, it would be very dusty. I had to trim a couple of trees keep them from rubbing on the side of our coach. The staff came out and offered to help. He took away the trimmings. I thought I was going to be in trouble, but not so! Friendly, nice park and about the only one for about 125 miles to the south of Lone Pine. Since it was our only choice, glad it was a decent park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Great place to spend a night or a few days when traveling on 395. Located just south of Lone Pine a couple of miles out of town, but they have a small store that carries a little bit of everything! The site sizes were adequate for us, just wish we had a concrete pad as some of the sites do, and maybe a few more mature trees! (That of course will come with time!) The dust is a bit much when some of the inconsiderate campers blast through, but there will always be those! Very friendly staff, we will definitely stop here again when in the area.

Large park near Mt. Whitney - about 1/2 way between LA and Tahoe. Staff friendly and accommodatng. Sites small and dusty - it's the Mojave Desert. Utilities worked well, a good thing because it was over 100 degrees. Sparkling pool. Clean restrooms. Free coffee and muffins. Dog walk is a empty row where people do not pick up after their dogs, which is annoying. However, we liked this place a lot. We not only would stay here, we're going to host our whole RV group here.

Good park for a stopover or to go to Death Valley. We stayed here one night on the way to Tahoe and found it to be a nice stop after a long drive. Interior roads and sites are dirt but didn't have any issue with dust from them (was dust in the air from the dry lake bed nearby). Nice little store, pool, and play area for kids. Would definitely stay here again if passing through. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The rate reflects a 10% AAA discount. Lone Pine is an interesting place to explore, and this RV park served its purpose for a few nights. The area can be windy and dusty, but the views are beautiful. The park could use more shade trees. We were there the same weekend as a large group of dune buggy enthusiasts, so it was a bit noisy. We had an easily accessible, pull-through site.

We stay at this park as we travel between LA and Reno. The dirt sites are nice enough. The staff is very friendly. Wi-Fi is excellent with fair cable. The views from the park are beautiful. We did not want to take our rig into Death Valley so we made a day trip in our tow vehicle. It was a long day but we got to do and see what we wanted. It was nice to be able to come home to hot showers and TV. We will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here because we wanted to visit Death Valley NP which is about 100 miles. The park had level sites. The restrooms were clean. The pool was not open nor the hot tub, perhaps because of the time of year, but we though the hot tub would be open?? Each morning there was free coffee and donuts/muffins which were made right here and very good. We thought the price was high for an off season. The town of Lone Pine was nice to visit and had a lot of history with movie making, primarily westerns and recently commercials. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Price reflects the weekly rate. Located south of Lone Pine in a quiet area, this park affords great facilities, ample sites, and most of all, great views of Mount Whitney and the Sierras. Sites and interior roads are dirt, a bit dusty but level and with numerous trees for shade and privacy. Good hookups included free cable with a limited number of channels, and free Wi-Fi. Verizon cell and Aircard service was good. A large, comfortable clubhouse complete with indoor aviary, big screen TV, and coffee and snacks. The staff was unfailingly friendly and professional. A great place to visit on it's own merits but also to tour the Lone Pine area. Don't miss the movie museum, Alabama Hills movie drive, and Manzanar National Historic Site. We'll stay here again when in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The positive reviews do not exaggerate. A very nice park indeed! Great shade, beautiful setting. Level sites, decent cable. Good clubhouse and coffee in the AM. We would return. Tengo is the Internet provider, and I see a pattern- Tengo throttles the pipe to the degree that webpages take full minutes to load. Yes, you can get email, but research is an exercise in frustration. I hope campground owners soon learn how aggravating this is. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Every time we spend a night here, we are on the way to another destination, but we want to stay longer. One of these trips we will stay 4-5 nights. The park is quiet, shade trees at nearly every site, has a nice little store at the office, pool and hot tub, great community room (with an aviary full of happy beautiful little birds), a big screen TV, muffins & coffee at breakfast time; nice grassy area with a habitat for desert tortoises. If you have a car, be sure to make the drive up to Whitney Portals which is the road directly across the highway. It is AWESOME! The Alabama Hills is worth the drive around as well. Also, the Resort is close to Lone Pine for other activities, shopping, etc. Star gazing at night is great if you move away from the Resort's lights. Hoping to spend more time there soon!

We stayed there for 3 nights with friends in another Motorhome. We stayed on the east side of the park in the dirt/sand full hook up sites. We had a great view of the Owens Lake and White Mountains. Park Office/store was nice and the staff was friendly and helpful. It would be nice if they had a fenced dog run. The pet area was full of dog droppings, no one seemed to clean them up. Lots of interesting places to see in the area. The park is near the highway but traffic noise is minimal after 11 PM. We will stay there again when we are in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our third stay here and they just now contested the validity of our AAA membership. One of the stays was just last week on the way to Mammoth. I understand that the savings by using the AAA membership is only $4, but that is why I pay for a membership. The cards that we have on us are expired (the new ones are at home, we just received them before we left), and the lady at the counter said that she couldn't accept our expired card. Understood, however, just a week ago nothing was said about the validity of our memberships. Nice place to stay and use their Wi-Fi, cable TV, showers and pool, but don't forget your VALID AAA CARD!!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a great RV Park. It fills fast. Suggest you make reservations to be guaranteed a site. The staff is very friendly and they try to accommodate your wishes. The front sites have cement patios while the sites further in the back are dirt. Every site has a picnic table and grill. Some of the roads are paved. The showers and laundry room were very clean. Our Verizon cell phone and wireless internet connection was fast with great reception. The only negative is the dust. You need to keep your doors and windows closed most of the time. There are many shade trees and they provide a nice breeze on hot days. While here we hiked Mt. Whitney, visited Manzanar National Historic Site, and Death Valley. We truly enjoyed our stay and would come back if in the area. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We liked this park but there are a few things to know before you go: Make sure you get two wireless passwords from the office before they close for the night! (Or one per however many laptops in your group.) After that the internet works really well! Also, they do not keep the spa hot as a general rule, so head over 20 minutes or so before you plan to soak and have someone turn it on for you. Otherwise, the place is clean and the staff are friendly. The laundry facilities work well. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Without a doubt one of our most favorite campgrounds. If it's concrete and formal landscaping you want, this is not the place for you. Great pull-throughs, shade, peace and quiet. Even their store is great and well-stocked. We have been staying here for years when hardly anyone knew about it. Now it is always busy. You do need a reservation.

This is our second stay here; we liked it better the last time. The trees, such as they are, have grown so that they make getting into and out of some sites difficult. The tree next to our site was staked and held upright with a rope but still managed to lean more while we were there so that we probably wouldn't have been able to get in a day later. There is no grass, it's all very dusty. There are two sections and the older one (nearer the highway) is much more crowded. But the people are still friendly and the electric and water pressure are strong. It's OK but I wouldn't want to be here for a long stay. On the other hand there's not much else in the area.

This campground is awesome, but route 395 is such a scenic route, how can it not be beautiful? Though we didn't use them, the clubhouse and pool area were gorgeous. We did have some garbage in our fire pit the entire 3 days there, though. Seems like it should have been cleaned out before our arrival. Paved roads for the most part, except for what looks like a new section for larger RVs. Views up to Mt. Whitney were awesome. Taking the portal road up the mountain is a must. Breakfast at Alabama Hills Cafe was terrific. Will definitely return if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We are new RVers and greatly depend on RV reviews to help select campgrounds. Therefore, we agree with others on the great location, friendly staff, and well kept grounds. Because we are not satellite equipped yet, it was nice to have the few cable stations that the park offered. Considering the age of the park, we loved the rustic look. The restrooms were not modern but clean and complete. We stayed 2 nights in May, in which the weather was weird with high winds, rain, cold, and a dusting of snow. That made our RVing a fun experience (hilarious in fact). We will come back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We visited this park twice on the same trip - once going, once coming. The first stay was pleasant - quiet sites, good internet, easy check-in. The second time we were forced off the highway by extreme winds and had to stop. We requested a spot away from others - as we had the previous visit. The desk lady gave us a site putting us right in the middle of some big rv club from Orange Co. whose members drank, smoked, and laughed outside all night - it was very disturbing. We were plunked down in between all that even though there were a dozen or more wide-open spaces just down the row a bit. The sites are level, but it is very dark at night, especially for going to the dog walk area - which is not fenced. We were charged $30 the first time we stopped and $35 for the second. We thought maybe that was the weekend rate, but the lady said no, the prices are always the same. We asked for the $30 rate we paid just a few days earlier and she said no, the $30 must have been a mistake. But then she proceeded to charge the next couple in line $30 - no questions asked. The cable channels were very limited and the stations that did come in were snowy and unwatchable. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Rate is with GS and includes a $5 charge for the grandson (22) but the dog is free. Verizon cell and aircard is very good. Stayed in the newer pull through section this time. The trees are smaller and there is more clearance for slide outs. It has been mentioned many times here, the sites are all dirt, very fine dirt. So, don't let your cigar hit the ground.

This is a wonderful park located in a beautiful area. It's very well-maintained and shows years of care by its operators. It's a great place to stay while taking advantage of the sights and activities available in the area. The only downside I can mention is the fine gravel that most of the park consists of. It's a pain to keep it out of your rig. Nevertheless, we plan to stay here again in the future. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice RV Park off Hwy 395. The newer section of the park has trees that are less developed, so if you're in a bigger rig, request the newer section for ease of in and out. We really enjoyed this park, the only downside is the gravel. The entire place is gravel, so when the wind blows it's very dusty. Because of the valley location, it's common for wind. Every morning, they serve free coffee and homemade muffins, the bathrooms were clean, laundry was clean and the store was immaculate and well stocked. The internet worked alright, not consistent, but for the most part it worked. The pool was not open when we were here. The Lone Pine area is beautiful, be sure to explore the Alabama Hills, Film History Museum, abandoned mine sites, Manzanar, Bishop and Death Valley. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice clean park. A little road noise from the Hwy but very tolerable. Nice level pull through and long enough I didn't have to unhook. However we did for sight seeing. It is all gravel, so I can see an issue if the wind was blowing, but we had good weather. We had a great Wi-Fi signal and they have basic cable TV. I mentioned I had a dish and the super lady checking us in said I will put you in the newer section as the trees are not as established. We have been in this area before and there is a lot to see. Manzanar, Alabama Hills and a western museum with a lot of old movie star stuff. We will certainly stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We called ahead since we would be arriving late and wanted to be sure of the Wi-Fi code. The desk guy assured us we would get there before they closed - and we did. However, he still did not give us the internet code at check-in but said he would bring it to our site later. We said we were going to drive into town for some dinner and please just leave the code for us on the hook-up tower at our space if we weren't there. He said he would. We returned to find no internet access code and the office shut tight. It pretty much ruined any other positive experience we might have had here as we are dependent on internet communication for work, family and health issues. It was very frustrating. Planned on staying a week or so but left after one night. This park did not have an enclosed dog run, just a large space set aside that was not lighted and therefore very dark and scary at night. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We only spent one night here but would have been happy to stay for a longer period. The ten rating is for the campground. There didn't appear to be a lot to do in Lone Pine or the surrounding area. But the campground was well kept and the sites easily accommodated our motorhome. All utilities, including Wi-Fi, worked fine. The owners were friendly and helpful.

Not impressed by this park. Our site was not very well shaded, rather dusty and had not been cleaned from the previous occupants.

Rate is with Good Sam discount. We have stayed here almost every year over the last twenty years. It is a good stop if you are heading north from the LA/Orange County area as it is a good day of traveling, without pushing it. The sites are mostly sand/gravel and mostly level. It could be a little better. Most all pull throughs have trees, which is good for shade, which is good as it is in the high 90's right now. But, the trees need some trimming, especially the lower parts, as it is close and/or touching the slidouts. It does have 50 amp, which is needed right now. Our site and those around us, have the cable hookup with a male connector, went to the well stocked store, checkin desk to get an adapter, which they provided quickly and free of change. The cable TV has nine channels, of which some are fuzzy, but is passable. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Lone Pine is not on most RVers' destination list. However, if you need to stop there for the night, while traveling north or south on U.S. 395, then this park is a good place to stop. The sites proved a decent amount of room between your neighbors; the utilities are in good shape; the park is well maintained; and the store is well stocked with all the camping knick-knacks you might need. My wife was even happily surprised by the fun gift items in this store away from stores. The swimming pool was clean and very popular with the kids on the hot July night we were there. There is some good year-round fishing in the creeks and lakes nearby. Water sports are also allowed at the nearby Diaz Lake. The negatives were the sewage we smelled in one part of the camp (sure glad our site wasn't around there) and the bathrooms, although clean, only offer two showers per room. All-in-all, we would definitely stay here again (and we probably will soon). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Wonderful! This is our new home for all of the Eastern Sierra. We were placed in a pull through site and had full hookups, utterly fabulous wifi, shade trees on either side of us, and a view of stunning mountains (Mt. Whitney area). If you are close to the road, you will hear some traffic, but not in a really bad way. The staff is courteous; they have a well-stocked little store too. After 2 previous nights in less-than-ideal conditions, this place is amazing and I was thrilled. It IS busy, so call for reservations. We spent a Sunday night, and it is the half-way point both going and coming on 395 so everyone stays in this park. Like I said, in future, we will make this our home base and take day trips everywhere else. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Right next to US 395, so you get traffic noise (our site was right smack dab next to road). Sites were nicely spaced and there were pretty trees. Dog walk wasn’t workable—there was a boulder wall and pine trees planted next to the wall and you and your canine were to walk between the two but there was only about 6 inches. Very puzzling. Nicely well-stocked store and lots of facilities for children—petting zoo of sorts, playground, pool. Coffee and muffins 7-9AM were included. Bathrooms were nice. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I found this to be a very nice park given that it is in the high desert. Very cute western movie theme to buildings and landscaping. Based on all the old Hollywood Westerns that were filmed here locally. Friendly staff, nicely stocked gift/supply store. Large, comfy rec room with coffee and muffins in the morning. The park was easy to get around in with our 39' fifth wheel. Sites were relatively level gravel/dirt with small to medium sized trees throughout the park. Tables and fire rings at each site. I am sure it could be quite warm in mid summer, but consider the location. The pool was inviting and clean, as were the restrooms. We stayed one night and would do so again.

This is one of the nicest RV parks on hwy 395. Site space is reasonable for a RV park, the management is very friendly and virtually all of the rv park amenities are available. There is a fair amount of shade given the desert environment. The views of the Sierra mountains are beautiful. Only negative is a really high fee for wifi at $7.95 per day. Thinks this park and others need to figure out that wifi is becoming a really big factor in selecting a rv park. Part of this selection process is not having to pay usury charges for what we think is important. Despite this, it is a good place to stay for days, even weeks. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a dirt/gravel park, which is about all they have in this area due to water restrictions. About 25 new sites have been added since we were here a couple years ago, but none of the new sites have any shade as yet. The original sites have some shade. People who run the park are very nice and helpful. We were surprised by the rate hike since the last time we were here. Close to highway, but noise has been minimized by the planting of trees and windbreaks.

The price for this county park is too high. There are no services, the bathrooms are padlocked, although porta-potties are available. Roads are rough and dusty.

NOTE: Campground is now privately owned and site price has doubled. Explanation (from the man who took our payment) for the increased price is "to clean it up". We did not see any proof of that except for piles of cleaned-up brush. The campground has 3 sections off the paved road. Sites on the left are shaded and facing the mountains. Sites on the right are shaded and lakeside. These sites, of varying lengths and widths, pull throughs and back ins, are separated by logs, have picnic tables and fire rings. Farther on are more lakeside dispersed sites, not obvious as to placement except by occasional picnic tables. Signs ask that parking be perpendicular to lake but some RVs were parked parallel. All sites are on dirt or grass and most are level. Numerous water faucets are available for tank filling but not hookup. A very roomy group site is available. We did not use or look into the restrooms. Diaz Lake seems to be very popular for water sports and fishing; the area is scenic. Because of the price increase, unless major improvements are made by the new owners, we will most likely choose the other county park or BLM camping options in the area next time.

Not much to brag about here. This is a run down county operated park that could be much, much nicer. We stopped here hoping to make this a base camp while we explore Death Valley. We'll head out in the morning to look for something nicer. There is no power available to any site and "NOTHING" is level. Most pit toilet bathrooms are locked, but those that are open are pretty nasty. (like most pit toilets) No water available either. I would not recommend this park for big rigs due to the overhanging tree branches. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Sites are not well defined or numbered. Fishing was poor from the shoreline. Boat ramp is closed due to Inyo County budget cuts. Campground is to be run by private concession in the future with electric and water being added at sites with a price increase of course.

Big campground on the lake with some trees. Easy access for any size rig. No hookups or dump station, although there are water faucets scattered around. Some noise from Highway 395, but quiet at night. Great mountain views. We were there the day after Easter, and it was almost empty. Good Verizon signal for voice and data. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A real gem of a park. Large sites, well-shaded, almost all with views of mountains and the lake. Can hear some US 395 noise, but it’s not bad. There were some flush toilets (some pit), convenient trash and recycling , picnic tables galore—some right on the edge of the water. Very pretty spot and a good deal. No hookups, no showers, but clean flush (and some pit) toilets, dump station, and fresh water were available. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a county-operated campground on the southern end of Lone Pine, adjacent to Hwy 395. It is popular with boaters and other watercraft people. No hookups or showers, but has flush toilets and water faucets. A good night stop if in the area. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

This is a old residential park with only ten back-in spots. It needs work and a good cleaning. We stayed here for two nights and would not stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

If you read what this campground is before coming up here, then you have to rate it a 10. No amenities, but they do have water at a central location and a dump station at the entrance. The views are spectacular, sites level enough and large enough for any MH. We have a 30' Class A but saw a number of 38' up here. No problem. We unhooked the Jeep before coming up the smooth dirt road but you don't need to. They even have 3-4 pull throughs. We were apprehensive, never been here before. But this is great and this place is able to accommodate MH's to about 38' or so. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a Bureau of Land Management Campground. There is no potable water. Lone Pine, the closest town, is approximately 5 ½ miles away. There were clean vault toilets through out the camp ground loops. Each site had well defined dirt parking pad, a picnic table and a fire pit. We camped in a 30 foot travel trailer. I stayed in site 72. The dirt parking area was about 60 feet long and about 14 feet wide. I need four boards to raise the down hill wheels of my trailer, six inches, so I could level my 30 foot travel trailer. Tuttle Creek was about 15 yards behind my site. There were cattle that came into the campground. The access off Horse Shoe Meadow Road is a narrow windy asphalt road with 4 speed bumps. You have to look ahead since the road is so narrow, two RV’s would be unable to pass unless one of them uses one of the pull offs along the road. The campground roads are dirt and you have to pick spots to let on coming traffic pass. The dirt roads were so soft I had to use 4X4 to stop spinning my tires when I started towing my trailer from a dead stop. The views from this park are phenomenal. The stars at night were unbelievably clear. This is great camp ground to use as a base to see other attractions in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a beautiful setting in the shadow of Mount Whitney and the Alabama Hills. Fishing is awesome in the Tuttle Creek. You have to fish it like a snake looks for food, in every little hole but there are some beautiful wild trout to be found. The is a BLM campground. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is primitive dry camping as there is no potable water, nor is there a dump station. Shade trees are few and far between. Access road has been paved and the speed limit is 10 MPH with at least 3 speed bumps along the way. Bring your levelers as the sites are NOT level, but they are nicely spaced apart. The camp host was very visible, the campground clean, and the area very quiet. Some fish in the creek. Views of Mt. Whitney and the Sierras were spectacular. All in all, not a bad primitive, dry camping experience. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Dirt access road is very bumpy. Sites are not very level. There's no shade, and campground can get very hot in the summer. It's at 5000 feet in the Owens Valley. But it's very quiet, and the views of the nearby Sierra are wonderful. And the price is right. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
