This is our experience with our C Class Motorhome: We had a reservation for the middle area and we got space #9. This spot was so perfect! The view is stunning! Yes this park is small, yes it is older and needs some improvements but they are doing them and it shows! We did not use the bathrooms, laundry etc but we enjoyed every moment of our stay. The beauty of nature trumps everything. read more

The people are so rude!!! 3rd world country amenities! The Clerk was a Royal A$$! Just asking questions for a future trip there. I DO NOT RECOMMEND! read more

Customer service is severely lacking here. Booked a 70' site and we arrive only to be told we can't have a 70' site. We were told we'd have to unhook and park our trailer separately. Kid claiming he was the owner was super rude. Completely ignored me as I walked by and would only speak with my husband. read more

When life comes crashing through my door with the demands of adulthood igniting a gasoline soaked midlife crisis brought on by the sprinting in place that is the pace of the bay area... I retreat to Bridgeport. As I sit here watching the sun kiss the top of breeze curled waves with the wind at my face and my troubles behind me I think of how simple happiness can be. I truly wish I could be here forever. Bridgeport holds a special place in my heart, showing me stars like i'd never seen before or since, cradling me in a hidden oasis of peace and traquility. My cat is in love with Bridgeport as well. She was even brave enough to go out on one of the rented Kayaks, a mere $15 for 2 hours. Crusing the glass like reflection of the snow topped sierras for the price of a hipster's latte, priceless. 4 days went by in a flash, but the memories will always remain cemented, etched into a safe place in my mind labeled, "Break Glass in case of Emergency." The camp sites are clean, cheap and roomy, the bathroom decent enough, and the views are stunning. It's a place where in the company of the waters symphony against the shore all of life's answers come easy. Not the first time and certainly not the last that I will visit my favorite place, Bridgeport. read more

I enjoyed everything about this place! Going out on the water was so lovely and the views are top tier. I loved the campsite I was in and it was close to the restrooms where they had showers!! What a luxury. The owner Chase and his grandmother were so sweet and accommodating. It's a pretty affordable spot compared to all the other places in the area. I found out that the bugs weren't even mosquitos either. I had zero bug bites and let me tell you I am a mosquito magnet. Overall I love this place and it will definitely be a staple in our families summer spots. Thank you to the friendly staff for such a great experience! read more

Cons: The owner, Chase. He was very rude. It was nicer when his brother was still an owner and participating. The showers are tiny and quite dirty. All sites are very close, not much privacy at all and they did not enforce the noise rules for a group of ravers that seemed to be a friend of the owner or employees. Pros: It's a great location to jump to a lot of different places. One employee was pleasant and stepped up when his boss did not. The older lady in the shop. Unfortunately, we did not catch her name. read more

Had a wonderful time staying here with my family. The owner Chase was so amazing and helpful. We went out on a boat, fished for a little bit, rode atv's up to an old mine, went to the top of a hill for an amazing view. Overall was a wonderful vacation, thank you Chase and company. Many blessings. read more

This was our first time staying at Bridgeport Resevoir. The staff was very friendly, Spots were clean, and it's not super crowded like a few other places closer to the Twin Lakes. They have a little store that sells snacks, a few amenities, and ice cream. Power and water hookups at our site with the option to use their shower rooms for $4. The down side is the water in the Resevoir was so low you couldn't go out on a boat and there aren't many trees. On the plus side they are planting a lot more trees and putting some time/love into their place. read more

My family and I just came back from our 4 day camping trip here. Here's our feedback: PRO: - provided showers and restrooms ( weren't the cleanest but they worked) - beautiful scenery to the mountains ( lake shallow during this time of the year) - provided table Con: - closeness to other sites. You can hear the campers next to you. - you can hear trucks and cars passing by, very loud. - Swarms of bugs would gather at night with any flash of light. ( bugs are out of control given the lake being so close) - rules didn't apply to all. The quiet hours start at 10 pm, and other campers were still playing music past this time. Seems like no personnel came to enforce these rules. - the workers came to trim trees at random times throughout the day, and they played their own music on their phone. On our campsite, while enjoying our breakfast. Which was rude! Please fix that. Tips: Stars are best to see around 230-3:30 am . We woke up to see the Milky Way. It was fascinating. I almost didn't wake up, but when I did I was happy that I did. I appreciated that they let us borrow a skillet during our stay, since we forgot ours. read more

The staff is amazing. Helpful in every way. We rented an RV and their Tent. Both were clean and both were extremely convenient. The views are memorizing and the location is just great. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you, guys. read more

Owner Chase & friendly staff have made great improvements since last year! Prices are great & they offer long pull thru's with complete hook ups to dry level tent spots & dry RV camping! They have a few nice yurts! Their views, sunsets, & mountain peaks are phenomenal! Town is only 2 miles, with 10 great spots for dining or drinking! Watching small planes take off & land from camp... cool! If you like to stargaze... this is the place! A cute, clean little store with a nice book exchange is convenient for most forgotten items. We like everything here but the flying bugs, but when you're on the lake in summer... they're there. Kayaking is great!!!!! read more

I just had the absolute worst experience on the phone when I called in to ask a simple question. I was met with an angry gentleman answering the phone, and once I said that I had a question, he cut me off and said "I'm only going to say this once, no boats are launching off my ramp, no boats are available for rental, and no campsites are available. Goodbye" I interrupted him before he hung up, as none of those were even close to my question. When I asked him if they had public parking, or if he knew of any close by, he angrily asked me "you're not staying at my campground and you're not parking here." I was fuming mad, and was going to give him a piece of my mind, but decided to post it across all social media instead. I'll never stay here, nor will any of my family, friends, or acquaintances. read more

Awesome campsite with a gorgeous view of the water and surrounding mountains etc!! Met wonderful people who sent us to great fishing spots and schooled us on many things!! Can't wait to come back. Bill is a great man to talk to while in the campgrounds. So happy and helpful!!! read more

This is one of those random finds that looks so-so but then turns out absolutely great. The tent camps are right by the lake and run $20. The staff (Jeffrey especially) was super friendly. We rented a fishing boat for another $20 for 1/2 an hour and they told us to keep it as long as we want. The bathrooms were about the nicest camp bathrooms I've seen. The place is in the desert so it's a bit dusty, and the lake is 1/4 filled with lake grasses and lilies, but apparently has some really good fishing. Tooling around the lake (actually doing boat-donuts) we saw a bald eagle, plus a bunch of other birds and critters. Bottom line - they aren't fancy or deluxe, more homespun than anything - but they are friendly and won't damage your bank account. read more

This location is awesome. Rates are reasonable and they have ice, firewood and best of all, showers and clean bathrooms. We originally had reservations in the dry tenting area, the owner was nice enough to call us the morning of our arrival and offer a lake view spot. Check in was a breeze and she gave us a map with places to check out around the area. Great service. Can't wait to come back! read more

Bridgeport Resevoir - View from site 24 - Fishing Near Me - Bridgeport, California

Lots of pros and cons with the park. The good news is that is conveniently located a Short distance off of 395. The view of the lake and mountains in the distance is very nice. The lake is pretty low this time of the year, but still pretty. Great water pressure which is nice to have in the rv. I also borrowed a tool and it was easily taken care of. They also have a military discount. "NEVER FORGET." Some things we didn't like were the dirt roads in the parking area which had lots of dust blowing when the other rv'ers were driving their ATB's and cars. Picnic tables are worn and looks like they have seen better times. The sites were not exactly level, but manageable with levelers. We had 30 amp and it was steady and didn't fluctuate. Lots of bugs from the lake being so close. Laundry is $2 a load to wash and $2 to dry payable in the office. Only one washer and one dryer. We didn't use the showers because they charge $2 to use them. Sometimes it's nice to have a Little elbow room to shower, but not for $2. Finally they add on an additional charge to swipe your credit card for their 'square' which is about 2.8% of your total bill. Other than that things I mentioned above we liked the area with the exception of gas price gouging. Almost $5 a gallon for regular. I do appreciate the fact that they worked with me when he had to leave early. The two star rating is just for the facility. read more

So with the Sierras being artificially crowded this year we were forced to find RV spaces in spots away from our normal haunts. This was down the road from June Lake but still in Beautiful Bridgeport and we were a bit worried as the reservoir has always felt Crowley barren to us. But what a hidden gem of beauty and excellent service delivered by owner Chase and the very sweet Judy. From the start of working out a space (no easy task during covid travel times) to our last day, they were awesome and the park was truly great given that we are a family that many times has to dry camp. The 'full' hookups worked flawlessly, the entire park was clean and well apportioned with all the essentials from bags for the dogs 'duty' to easy to find trash cans...anything we needed for an easy stay was at our disposal. Restaurants in town are beyond adequate and as a fisherman you can't beat Bridgeport for options. Streams, lakes and rivers flies, lures, bate, trolling. We did it all. Point is great option as a place to base out of and great people to work with. read more

Bridgeport Resevoir - Our view from site #5 - Fishing Near Me - Bridgeport, California

Best fishing experience. Visited in late August and the days were warm but the clouds rolled in during the afternoon and conditions can get windy and rainy. Lots of vegetation in bloom during the summer months making motoring a bit tricky. But still a great fishing experience, lots of action and never pulled in anything smaller than a 2 lb rainbow trout. Can't wait to get back. Friendly staff at the Bridgeport Reservoir Marina with a $10 launch fee. I'm told this place is under new ownership, real nice guy and great looking campgrounds. read more

Anti-Burning Man location. They were charging $44 for a slot with full RV hookups. $30 for a RV spot with water and free holding tank dumping. But the unfriendly lady asked specifically if I was coming from Burning Man and told me it would cost $50 just to empty my tanks. I continued down the road to Lee Vining and found a friendly place that didn't discriminate and charged a reasonable $15 to empty my tanks. Give this place a pass... read more

Bridgeport Reservoir has a terrific campground- It has many large pull through spaces- They are big enough for a large RV AND a car with a boat- The park is quiet, occasionally there will be a loud group or someone running their generator but they are controlled very quickly- Everyone here is very friendly and tries hard to see that a good time is had by all. read more

This place is so beautiful! The views are amazing and the campground staff are friendly. We stayed here at the end of July for four nights and it was wonderful. I didn't want to leave. The bugs were out of control, but that is out of their control. The bathrooms were well taken care of, the (free) showers were great and provided hot hot water. The staff was even nice enough to deliver our firewood to our site while we were out exploring lakes! I will definitely camp here again. read more

Bridgeport Resevoir - Campfire - Fishing Near Me - Bridgeport, California

I stayed in the Bridgeport Reservoir RV Campground in late August, 2022. The reviews I read prior to making my reservation were very favorable. My stay was horrible. There is hardly a "reservoir" there anymore. There was little water, NO beach, and there were cows grazing where water once was. The campsite given to me was next to a ravine with activated love animal traps located 6 feet from my camper. Said traps were sized for varmints the size of large rats, gophers, etc. The worst was my campsite was literally crawling with red ants. I'm writing this negative review so others won't find themselves in the position I was in....I read reviews that were presumably penned well prior to the California water shortage. Also, the owners of the campground seemingly lacked any skills in keeping the campground maintenance schedule up to date. read more

I've been coming to this Marina now for over 40 years. The new owner Chase and his brother Vance are a very nice improvement over the last owner. Top notch service and greatly improved grounds are clean and well kept up! The tackle store has a nice selection of what works at the lake and is well stocked. There is s local guide available named Ken Hoffman I highly recommend! Overall 5 star rating! They will do just about anything to help you too if you ask! Keep up the great job look forward to my next visit. read more

Great location for a quick weekend of riding the Rzr around the area. Chase, the new owner, is very friendly and helpful. Even called me to advise me on how to find my site since I was arriving in the middle of the night. Would definitely stay here again. read more

We are camping here for long weekend and rented a boat. This place is awesome and right in the water. The owner, Chase is amazing!!!

In town for trout season. besides the public (i.e. free, sandy, unattended) launch, this is the only other way to get a boat on the lake. The help at the dock was variable. From energetic and helpful to almost alseep. In any case, energetic was quick to make suggestions, point out lake feature, and lures to try. The "marina" is a dirt/gravel lot with a concrete apron dropping into a burm protected marina. Wind is kept down to a breeze so launching isn't too bad. The scenery is amazing. It's the high Sierras, so what else would you expect. The weather had just turned warm, bu the fishing was so-so. I'd come back. It was easy enough to drop the boat in and pay for a slip each night (same price as a launch). Launch = $10 Slip = $10/day $60/wk From their flyer..... Boat rental = $70/day RV Site = $32/day $192/wk Camp = $20/day $120/wk read more

One of my favorite places to fish when I'm in Bridgport. Sucks because the water level has been going down ever year for the last 5 years. Cross your fingers and pray for rain! read more

What an amazing location. My family and I were passing through but end up getting stuck due to self-inflicted RV troubles. Although we were out of cell reason, the free wifi and amazingly friendly and helpful staff were there to help me out of a challenging situation. And what amazing views. The camp and RV areas are spotless, and the owners are apparently investing a ton of sweat equity in developing the place. Can't wait to come back for trout season! read more

Beautiful lake. Pretty decent size. I wish there was some trees or foliages. The landscape is dry and brown. I see boats out here. The fishing was okay when I was out here. Our party caught about 3 good size trouts in about 5-6 hours of fishing. Most likely return here to fish again. read more

This campground is awesome. It's a bit of a hidden gem. I don't fish but apparently the fishing there is the best around. Met a few people there who have been going there for decades. Overall the campground was nice. Except the picnic tables which definitely could afford to be replaced. The views are incredible. Only thing is you're at a pretty high elevation, so the weather can get pretty bad. When we arrived the wind was so bad it almost blew my tent right off the ground,then it started snowing, and it got down to 25 degrees that night. This was in June! But that's obviously not the owners' fault. Just expect some pretty gnarly weather up there. read more

Place is absolutely beautiful, campgrounds were convenient ($40 a night) however, the owner is completely unprofessional. First day he seemed friendly, but then the rules began to change in the camps. Gave both of my children the creeps, and me as well. rather then speaking directly he is a'll over the place and continuously yells, he speeds through camp unsafely on a regular basis. Overbooked the camp and refused to honor our reservation request, but blamed us for that as well. Wouldn't go back even if I had absolutely no other choice!!! read more

We stayed for a week in a full hook up spot. Everything was terrific, clean, and in working order. Owners were so friendly and helpful. The boats were in good condition, store was well stocked. The laundry room was such a blessing to have when you realize you didn't pack enough! There are lots of places to fish and sight-see within a short drive, we went to Bodie, Mono Lake, Twin Lakes, Virginia Lakes, and the Chemung Mine. Our kids had a great time- the horseshoe pit was a definite favorite, and there is free wifi too, in case you still need to take care of business while on vacation! We would definitely camp there again. Two thumbs up from us! read more

This place is so great! We stayed on our way up to Oregon and then four days on our way back to California. It is a smaller (therefore not busy except on holidays), clean, well put together RV park. We had full hookups with our RV, in a pull through site, awesome views of the mountain and reservoir (even though it was low), and saw some awesome summer storms over the mountains. The host Jeffery is a super sweet, helpful guy and takes much pride in his park. Rates were $35 a night which was we thought was great. He has RV and tent sites as well. The RV sites have picnic tables and trees. The tent sites have a little grass area, BBQ, fire pit with wood already, there is a designated pet area including doggie bags available for the waste! Horseshoe pit, clean bathrooms/showers, and laundry facility. We had a great time here and had chosen this one over a couple of others and so glad we did. The RV park down the street, Paradise Shores, we saw as we had to go get ice there and it is very cramped and the little streets would have been very difficult to navigate pulling a trailer. Also the other site we had thought about was Willow Springs up the 395 as we were going to Bodie Ghost Town one of the days but this one seemed that the enter/exit may have been difficult as the road is a little windy up there. We were able to go Bodie and it only took about 20 minutes to get there from the reservoir. Also Jeffery told us about some hot springs and an old mine that was right close and they were both really neat! Definitely be going back there again! read more
