Wally S.

Awesome bass trip with Carl Keller. Big numbers and big fish. Carl had everything I needed including the honey holes. Made for a fun action packed day including my personal best 9.79 pound largemouth! Highly recommend Carl if you are anywhere near clear lake during your travels. Definitely lived up to its reputation as a top three bass lake in the country.

I highly recommend Carl as a bass guide! He's highly experienced and will show you a great time.

Thank you Carl for an unforgettable trip. He was patient, prepared and knowledgeable. We caught a lot of bass and crappie and Carl was more than willing to teach beginner bass fishermen a variety of methods, such as Carolina rigs in beds and topwater frog fishing. Overall a great day on the water with plenty of laughs, would 100% recommend!

There were four of us. All adults. It was absolutely perfect. We cought so many fish. The biggest one was 5 lb. But all were so big!!!! Carl had so much knowledge. He was so helpful. We will definitely do it again. Highly recommend!!!!

Picked up on many new tips and techniques, and Carl taught me to adequately pitch a spinning to a small target.

I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with this campground. The campers placed directly next…read moreto us were loud, disruptive, and inconsiderate well into the night, making noise until around 3:30 a.m. I was told quiet hours were enforced. We paid for a campsite expecting a reasonable night's sleep and instead spent most of the night awake listening to our neighbors. Because we got virtually no sleep, we made the decision to leave a day early. When I texted the host, I wasn't even asking for a refund--I simply requested a complimentary night for a future stay as a goodwill gesture. The request was immediately denied because of their "no refunds for early departure" policy. The issue isn't that we left early. The issue is that the campground did not provide the quiet, enjoyable experience that guests are paying for. Hiding behind a policy while ignoring the reason a guest is leaving is poor customer service and shows a complete lack of concern for the guest experience. If you're looking for a peaceful campground, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

Pretty nice campground with good bathrooms and a shower. Did have the worst experience with noise…read moreat night though. We tried to get a hold of the owner twice but never got a response. We ended up leaving a day early because we didn't want to deal with the noisy assholes parked next to us. Just have to know it's a popular catfishing spot so people are up drinking and fishing all night long.

I was concerned I might accidentally run over a duck when I left. Very cute regardless, especially hearing the pitter patter of duck feet hustling across the pavement. Additionally, I was treated to a couple of roosters singing their customary morning greeting. Sorry, no pictures of the roosters or ducks, I was still waking up and I was concerned when the ducks fearlessly approached my vehicle. Perhaps, next time?

This place gave me and  my family the worst treatment ever. We rented all their cottages, hoping to…read morehave a great family experience. One member of our family got there a day before the rest. She felt as though we was tricked from the pictures. She was told no refunds. My aunt was so disgusted she nearly got back on the plane and flew home. The place from the outside had spider webs and dirt all over the place. Its seriously needs to be pressure hosed from the outside all over. This is only where the problems start. In my beach house cottage the power and stove went out. They stated its a DFI switch or something like that, nevertheless after having a "employee who can fix it." They couldn't find her, she went home. So I had to wait to finish cooking. After about 2 hours they magically came back on. This seems as though its been a ongoing problem from the way they made it sound. Another one of my aunts had to wait for her unit to be painted 3 hours past check it. Yes I said painted! Who paints a unit same day of check in? Well later I find out they had a squatter who wouldn't leave dying there. the place smelled so bad they had to paint it to remove the smell. They wouldve been better off not renting the unit till it was complete. My aunt had to try and sleep there with paint fumes and she has asthma. Lastly mother and I was hanging out till midnight. When it was time for her to goto bed, she discovers her unit flooded from the AC. Her Bedding was soaked. They did come and mop it up and give new bedding. They literally gave the new bedding to my mom. My mother is handicap, the guy claims he has never maid a bed before. My mother could've slipped or gotten electrocuted, the offered no help. Here is the worst part they offered a $50 discount for the trouble. Moral of the story is NEVER got there. They need new owners and management that gives a dam.

The bungalows at Blue Fish Cove resort are decorated in a kitschy campy style. I stayed in the…read morefisherman's shack, which includes a kitchenette furnished with a refrigerator, a microwave, and a small coffee maker. Sans concierge, the Bluefish Cove is a comfortable hideaway for those outdoorsy types who truly like to play outside. A private pier with small slips are available for guests to dock their fishing row boats, and at the end of it sits a small boat house with a wood burning stove and some comfy seats. A convenient landing spot indeed...a quiet spot to enjoy a bottle of wine and listen to the crackle of the fireplace after a long day of sublime laziness. Blue Fish Cove is a simple no-frills kinda place located "off the grid" for those of y'all who don't want to be bothered... and it's a hop skip and jump away from Sac and SF. The customer service here is excellent. The owners, namely Ms Judy, was very kind , extremely accommodating, and they're pet and family friendly.

This was the worst vacation I have ever had. The place was nasty and when I say nasty I mean nasty…read more I have been coming to this place for 20 years and it is truly underwater now. We weren't able to check in until after 6 o'clock even with the Covid tthe manager and the owner Jody and her son Jason are crooks. She tried to blame everything that was wrong with the place on the people that are staying downstairs. It took us 15 minutes to be able to get inside after the sixth after the 6 PM check in and we had to kill flies. There were no blankets on the bed bed and we didn't get any blankets. They dropped blankets off in the carport at about 2 AM in the morning.. The pictures tell at all do not waste your money going to this property they are crooks. I will be reporting them to Lake County health department on July 20, 2020.

Jodi was able to have the rental cleaned in a timely matter so that I can change my reservation on the same day. I should have come here in the 1st place its so peaceful. I have stayed in the Cabana as well as the Honeymooner both were great! I am coming back again soon :)

It is indeed right by the lake and the cays are on the opposite side. Great wildlife sightings including deer and geese and goslings !. The week we were there it was very quiet. The minuses: it's not well kept up. Weeds and overgrown grass everywhere. An otherwise nice view of the lake blocked by recycle bins and about 10 trash cans. At least one dog owner did not pick up after their pet so I picked up a fair amount of dog poop including one that sat in the concrete outside the laundry room for 3 days. The laundry room was surprisingly clean but some lowlife left a giant bag of their kitchen trash in the trash can. I don't think the park is looked after on a daily basis or this would have been picked up before I had to do it. As others have said this park is mostly occupied by older, unkempt RVs and motorhomes. Lots of trash everywhere tho maybe left by the day fishermen visiting the lake. Our outdoor space was very thorny so our dogs kept getting them stuck in their paws. Would not visit again. We would if it was maintained.

Talk about a disgusting place. I give it 15 stars…read more The ads that you see for this are glorified! The ads do not show the trash and broken-down trailers and RV's. This place is 90% occupied by people that live here all the time and they do not take care of this place. Do not believe the pictures that you see on Rover Pass or any other RV website. WHAT A DUMP!
