reat campground for a stop — I was honestly exhausted and this place near Fresno was a perfect break. Camping options in California are pretty limited, but this one was affordable, clean, and well maintained. I think there were hook-ups, water access, and enough space to pitch a tent comfortably. It’s right next to a shooting range, but that didn’t really bother me.

It’s right next to a shooting range, but that didn’t really bother me. The view over the small lake at sunset was absolutely stunning. Booking through the government app was super easy — even though the interface isn’t amazing, it works. The drive there was beautiful too, with rolling yellow hills all along the way. Definitely recommend this spot.

5$ per night, restful and beautiful. Perfect stop after or before the mess of LA. Pit toilets, no water, good for cans and small pop up trailers. NOT accessible to big rigs

Great campsite close to LA with fire pits, grills, benches, tables, restrooms, and peace/quiet compared to LA. But, it's quite loud - even at night - due to the nearby freeway.

Nice and free campground (if you have an America The Beautiful card). First come, first serve. Beautiful live-oak-trees, quiet, clean campground, picnic tables, clean restrooms. You see the vehicle lights from the highway at night, but that's fine.

This as a very nice little oak forest. There is nothing special here except these sweet oaks but they are sufficient for me to go out of my way to stop here. There doesn't appear to be a way to pay to stay here. It appears that one needs to have a Golden Age US forest service pass
