Beautiful campground and looking forward to returning. MOST sites are tent sites right along the creek. You can't park at the tent sites - you have to park in the parking lot then carry your items to your site, but its not far and all are easily accessible. A few sites have steps (stairs) down to them, but most are flat or slightly elevated entry. All the sites by the creek have pretty good tree coverage and bushes. We stayed in site 4 which got sun around 9 AM in October. There is one site, 21, that is close to one of the bathrooms. *RV sites are not on the creek. RV sites are on the desert mount side, with less trees.

+: Campsite 10 is among the trees, so the privacy is pretty good. At night, when cars came in, the headlights did not shine directly to my site. Also, not far to the pit toilet and water which is very convenient. The pit toilet is very well maintained, and seems to be cleaned every day. —:No place to shower. No parking space right next to the campsite. Need to walk a bit down to the campsite from the parking lot. Preparing a small cart to transfer camping stuff would be very helpful. No water hookup right next to the site, so need to walk to the toilet to do the dishes. ?: There is a creek right next to the campsite. It is very beautiful during the day, but the sound could be very noticeable for some people when sleeping. It acts like a white noise to me, so it didn’t really bother me. Overall: Very beautiful and well maintained campsite. Would definitely come again when visiting the Bishop area next time.
