I personally have issue with the generator policy. One guy in a big motor home ran his generator starting right at 6 am for 2 hours. Then at night starting at 8 would idle his motorhome till sometimes 10 oclock or run his generator. Everyday that I was there. Complete disregard for the surrounding campers. Been camping for almost 20 years. Needs to be more reasonable policy.

Our favorite Eastern Sierra campground offers good spacing between sites for an open area and large tree shade in many sites. Great views of the Sawtooths above Twin Lakes, especially in the early morning.

Beautiful views of the Eastern Sierras in a well-kept NF campground. Quiet, well-spaced campsites make for an enjoyable visit

We spent 4 days and 3 nights and just loved it! We had rain showers in the afternoon and evening but it was refreshing and kept it cool. Such a beautiful location!

Not a fan of generator hours 6 am to 10 pm. This campground is loud with generators before sun up and well after sundown. Our neighbors ran their generator past 10. There is no enforcement of generator rules. Totally ruins the camping experience.

Enjoyed our family reunion at Crags. The campground is very well maintained and peaceful. Love the stars at night! We really enjoyed our stay.

@ColinD8A2F58B6 · Camped on Jul 8, 2024 at Campsite #9
The campground was incredibly clean, bathroom spotless, compost, very friendly and eager to help with any problems

Calm little campground near a lake. Space per campsite was very good. Grill, fire pit, and table all in good shape. Bathrooms were very clean. Wood for sale. Negatives: no showers, not much tree cover, scenery is Nevada desert (even though in CA), mostly sage brush and bitter brush, but the campground is nestled in a modest valley giving some scenery.Perfectly good place to relax, but not any super activities or scenery.

Weve stayed at the Sawtooth Loop for several years now. Always at the same site. The campground hosts are always helpful and courteous.This visit we noticed a decline in the bathroom maintenance. While the toilets were kept clean, the spider webs were starting to take over. Overhead, behind the stall doors, you get the drift. The sites were tidy and nicely raked, though the fire pits had a considerable accumulation of ash and leftover chars.

Campsite was so clean when we arrived!

I CAN'T WRITE MUCH EXCEPT JOY WAS VERY HELPFUL AND PLEASANT AS MY WIFE HAD A AHLZHEIMERS ATTACK AND WE WERE ONLY THERE FOR A DAY AND A HALF AND HAD TO LEAVE. IT WAS HARD FOR ME BUT I WILL SURVIVE AND GO BACK AGAIN. THANKS
@DavidG5648223 · Camped on May 31, 2024 at Campsite #20
Loved this campground! Great neighbors which one of gave us some freshly caught trout! close to a creek that my pup loved to swim in and a 10min walk to the lake! Clean bathrooms and clean campsites! Nicely spread out surrounded by mountains! Camp host was nice but if you plan on buying firewood from the host be prepared with either cash or a check apparently. No digital cash or card. I believe it was about $7/bundle. The general store across the street from the lake has a lot of stuff but they close at 6pm. Well definitely be back!
@ScottP5976595 · Camped on May 21, 2024 at Campsite #14
Great campground if you like dry camping and 4 legged critters and plenty of walking trails and biking too.
@BrianG7865186 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #14
Great campground, clean bathrooms.
@RobertB6182770 · Camped on Aug 26, 2023 at Campsite #9
We've stayed at this campground at least 12 times in the last 12 years and have always found it to offer an excellent experience. It's close to Lower Twin Lake which offers great kayaking (5mph limit) and excellent fishing if you're so inclined.

Our experience at the Crags CG was great (we were there when the tropical storm came up from the Gulf of Mexico and Palm Springs in August of 2023, so it was wet as hell, but that of course can't be blamed on the campground). The CG hosts were helpful and friendly, and everyone we met there was also super friendly. The setting is stunning when you have a clear view up to the Yosemite National Park border. The creek is pretty and there are plenty of easy hikes in the are, e.g., a walk to one of the Twin Lakes. The campsites are spread out, which is great no matter where you are, but especially here because many of the CG denizens had huge trailers and ran generators often. This is usually not my kind of place, but the setting and the friendliness of those involved made it OK. The campsites all tend to have a nice cleared area for tents and a table, bear locker, and fire pit. We really liked the look of the placethe CG is sparsely populated with trees and has a nice desert floor. I would definitely camp here again.

Site is clean and big enough for a three person tent. Bathrooms were clean.
@EmilyP4531880 · Camped on Aug 1, 2023 at Campsite #3
The cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at a campground. I don't know who cleans them (river elves?), but they're spotless from morning til night despite lots of people pooping in there. This campground was quiet and pretty and smelled wonderful as it's covered in sagebrush.
@TroyA8583C66EF · Camped on Jul 29, 2023 at Campsite #3
Great spot. The camp host and his wife were wonderful. Clean bathroom and clean campground. Will stay again.
@TomK1282453 · Camped on Jun 19, 2023 at Campsite #5

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
