We definitely had a great time and recommend staying if you're nearby and looking for a clean, quaint campground with a lot of space. Only thing to note is the sites are not directly accessible by car, you will need to walk just a few steps off pavement.

Kinda cool that you can review campsites on Yelp, too. Anyway, here's my review of this site I…read morevisited just recently: I initially planned on visiting Table Mountain campground, just 5 minutes away, but that place was packed out the wazoo. Couldn't grab a spot. So I came here as a backup. It was 11pm or so, but my party was able to snag a spot out of 6/8 occupied sites. We grabbed an empty table and some real estate at the top of the hill. The site is used for sledding when the snow comes in for the winter, so the grade is quite noticeable. Cars must be parked at the bottom of the hill, so if you have a lot of things, be prepared for some tiring back-and-forth from the bottom to the top and back again. Since our tents were set at the very top, we had the privilege of getting some extra steps in. Each campsite here is within 50 feet of another. You are within eyesight and earshot of your neighbors - this is a bit of a downside, as I prefer camping in peace and away from other people, to get away from the city. Bring earplugs if you can spare the space. We were granted the opportunity to listen to a large family rev up their trucks throughout the first night. It went on from 11pm-3am. That would have been ideal if my definition of camping was setting up my tent in the middle of a monster truck rally. But alas, it's not. Sites also come with a grill and a fire-ring, very nice for cooking if you wish to do so. I think firewood is sold at a few stores nearby, but you can scavenge for extra around the grounds, too. The two bathrooms at the bottom of hill were a predicament. It wasn't entirely clean (which most camp potties aren't already) but you are galactically screwed if the door gets left open. Flies will swarm the two toilets and make it virtually impossible to do your business. One or two flies won't deter me from popping my squat, but I'm telling you: I instead chose to dig a hole way uphill, park myself behind a tree out of sight, and did my thing out there. It was that bad. The black plague would have been proud. On the topic of bugs: BRING BUG SPRAY. And citronella candles. And keep your tent doors closed at all times. The bugs here go crazy. Seal your foods, especially any sweets, and make sure to keep your cooking materials off the ground to avoid ants. Other than that, there was plentiful shade and the trees are swept by a decent breeze that visits every so often. It made up for the sweltering heat that had been bogging down LA for weeks. When our louder neighbors would leave to hang out at the nearby lake, it was serene and awfully peaceful. Plus, since the campground is situated between two bigger hills, the sun doesn't linger around too much during the day. While it gets the job done, this site is a sub-par escape from the city and serves only as a mediocre, last minute find; my advice would be to reserve a much nicer, cleaner, and quieter campsite months in advance. Do your research, pack smartly, and have fun.

(Pay extra for firepit 5 -10 dollars) we didn't get that. It was pitch black it was just nice. Be sure to being jackets it was cold . I would go again. Never made it to BONITA FALLS just lytle creek.

The biggest downside was that the highway that runs right by the campsite is really noisy. There are motorcycles constantly. Even all through the night. They woke us up several times. The lake area by the campsite isn't easily accessible so it's better to drive a mile down the road to the main lake parking. We brought kayaks but the lake is narrow and a lot of people are fishing so it wasn't practical to kayak. We were worried about fishing lines. The kids caught a lot of little fish and a few small catfish. The weather in July was beautiful and a nice break from the summer heat. Overall we enjoyed it and would definitely come back again.

Vault toilets and running water provided. Nearby is Jackson lake and the mescal picnic area. Opportunities for fishing, swimming, and canoeing. I reserved this site on recreation.gov, so I didn't talk to the campground host during my stay (the site had my name on it when I pulled in). I drove to their site to let them know when I was leaving, and the host was super nice! She said that Jackson lake is a water source for a lot of animals, but a clean campsite will discourage unwanted guests. Speaking of.. Please throw away your trash before you go to bed! We had a large animal visitor that went through some trash at a neighboring campsite and then started shaking my truck looking for more! I thought it was hilarious (and a bit terrifying), but I could easily see it being super terrifying if I were tent camping on the ground!

This place is a little oasis, filled with family friendly fun spaces and even adult only relaxation/party zones! The HOLIDAYS and all the seasons!! Omg! SO MUCH FUN! New Years, Easter, Summer, HALLOWEEN, Winter! The ambiance, activities and events are core memory makers for sure. Unfortunately the meadow area was washed out by a winter rain storm (Dec. 2025), but we're excited to see what it will look like once it's back open. Chillaxin in the creek was top tier! The staff is pretty friendly and will answer your questions the best they can. Looking forward to making more memories here over the years to come. Definitely one of my most favorite places!!

No campfires or flames of any kind, but that's typical now because of the drought. Some of the lots were very small and overall none of them were very private. Tips: Try to camp in one of the corner spaces to have more privacy. We had #68 which was decent size compared to others. We were told there was a bear problem in the area (not in the campsite itself) and to lock things away in our car. They don't have bear canisters, so bring a blanket or something to cover your food in the car.

You have to drive for a long time on a dirt road, back into a canyon on the back side of Wright Mountain.
