Site 17 was a spacious spot nestled right against the hill, offering beautiful views of the fields and hills. It was also a great place to watch the sunset. There was a nice tree near the fire pit, and the site was quite private. It was also conveniently located near the hosts’ site. At night, the stars were visible, and the bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. There were no showers, so you’ll need to bring your own. Lastly, Pyramid Lake is about a 6-8min drive from the site, and you have to pay for entrance. The walk down the lake was relatively easy, but walking back up with all our gear was definitely a test of my endurance. Bring swim shoes because the beach is rocky, and definitely bring shade if you go during warmer months.
If you’re prone to heat exhaustion, I recommend waiting for cooler weather before staying, as it was quite hot. The site was mostly dirt, so dirt was flying everywhere due to the winds, and our tents were on the verge of flying away. One camper’s tent actually did! If you are more of a hiker and site seer this may not be for you.
A disappointment would be the trash that was left from previous campers. We cleaned some of it up but definitely a mark down.

The site was quiet and serene. It was exactly as advertised and the camp host was a kind and friendly person. My family will be returning!

1st time in Pyramid lake with my family. i loved that it was self check in, once we arrived we were able to find our slots and start setting up. i like how everyone mind there own business and i loved how the restrooms were stocked up every morning, we did take our generator and was able to use it. Quiet hours are reasonable at 10pm it was a good weekend over all.
