Don Pedro Lake

We've been here twice we love this place to camp it was our first time seeing a tarantula out in nature this time we came ! We will be coming back just being more mindful of where we walk lol !

Staff awesome. Assistance expedient. Boat was clean and inviting. Minor concern and staff was available as needed. Friendly courteous staff.

Love the various areas, the lake is very large, so whether ur in the mountains or from the valley or even from the capital, u can get here pretty easily and so much fun. Safe . Clean . Many memories made here.

I camped here in mid October as part of a larger group. It was my first time here. I had a really great time and was really happy with the campsites. Each site had a private parking spot for one car, a cement picnic table, fire ring with flip over BBQ grate, and a locker to keep your food safe from animals. There was also plenty of room to comfortably place your tent and gear. We camped at the Fleming Meadows camping area. It was $30 per night. That includes admission to any of their camping areas which worked out great because the hiking trails are down at the Blue Oaks camping area which is a mile or so back up Bonds Flat Road. The trail is about 3 miles and walks along the side of the lake. If you are into hiking it's a nice flat and easy hike with great views. Having seen both camping areas I recommend Fleming Meadows because the sites are very near the water and there is great beach access. Do not come here if you are bothered by tarantulas. They are everywhere. We saw at least 3-4 each day. They are harmless and leave you alone so if you are unsure don't let them scare you off. I gave them 4 stars because it's such a long uphill walk to the bathroom/showers.

Favorite lake in California, even in early November! Gates were wide open and the lake was still calm and clean.

Wonderful trip, great staff that helped with so much. Boat rental was easy and so fun.

Bautful Lake, my husband, and my siblings rented a 50-foot houseboat for 3 nights we wished it was long. Great staff very accommodating friendly and helpful boat was clean and spacious. Fishing was slow but caught 2 large catfish. Hope to go again with my grandkids next time.

-The Lagoon was great for the kids, very crowded in the weekends. -bathrooms were dirty-Campers don't respect quiet times, they literally partied until 4am. Park rangers don't enforce this.-Probably won't be back camping here again.

Been coming to this place for over two years( flaming meadows camp site) until today5-30-2022, I noticed there are huge roaches all over the campground. They swarmed the fire pit, rv hook up station, and rv tires. I didn't see them during the day, but it is completely different at night!I urge you to be extremely cautious when coming to this camp site you might bring this infestation to your lovely home. Truly disappointed and disgusted!! Will not be coming back to this place. wish me luck with this back home.

Great place. Nice people! Will come again. Nice time of year to come and relax.. weather was awesome
