    Our tent site
    Daniel M.

    Great place to camp... (except when we were there.. it was too hot..) The campsite is great, The Bathroom is extremely clean!..... the maintenance guy kept up pretty well to maintain the bathroom clean. The shower is clean and it's a good size shower. You do need to purchase their TOKEN... $2 for 1 Token for 7 minutes of hot water ... OR it's FREE cold water... The staff is also working very hard to keep the trash bins empty for us to use. The staff is friendly... they are a very young staff. Checking in and checking out was a breeze. You may want to make sure if you are using tents like us to camp there... ask for the shaded area and be sure to bring PLENTY of CANOPY and portable fans perhaps... The bottom line is we will come back but not in the summer time tho... Awesome place and highly recommended.... The staff person that cleans the bathroom needs to have his pay raised..

    The quality of any campground isn't just the services and amenities but the people running it. We were greeted with a smile at the front desk, all questions answered and requests handled. The grounds are clean, RV spots level on dirt with water and electricity at each space and a dump station at the front of the property. The park is tree covered with clean bathrooms and showers. It was $40 a night at the writing of this with an additional $5 for the dump station if you stay the night and $20 if you're just passing through. The views of the snow covered Sierra mountains are breathtaking wnd the wind through the Aspen trees are very relaxing. There is also a little general store with homemade pie, ice cream, fire wood, laundry machines, a horse shoe pit with horse shoes, green grass for your dog to walk around on and kids to play. Over all, we had a great stay. Thank you to the staff for working so hard to keep this park clean. Would definitely return.

    Great campground. Staff was very helpful and store is nice feature. Had driven by this for years. Lots of things to do in Bishop and good fishing just up the mountains. Don't miss a Great deli sandwich for lunch

    Brown's Town is amazing every single time. The grounds themselves are immaculate. Dozens of dry tent camp sites, many RV sites as well, water and electric. South side of Bishop, just before you enter town. An old west feel with a museum of sorts. Plenty of space for extra curricular activities. Horse shoe pit at the west end (bring your own shoes). Bathrooms and showers. Tokens needed and can be purchased at the store. Store has some basic necessities, including firewood charcoal and the like.. Even more important, pie, ice cream and beer. Butts up against a golf course, which has a driving range as well as putting and chipping. Makes for a nice activity while camping. Of course there's tons of hiking every where and even just walking around the streets behind is nice. A drive to Bristlecone makes for a great day trip and if you've never been, I highly recommend it. Lots of grass and shade. Everyone is pretty well behaved and the employees are very nice and very responsive. I'll drive past hundreds of campgrounds from LA just to come here. Bishop is amazing and has a theater and bowling alley fairly close which adds to the experience. Great spot for biking as well. It's my Disneyland and I can't imagine going anywhere else.

    Came to camping over the weekend nice clean spot. It's more of a RV parking type spot but you can also camp to. They got clean restrooms with clean showers. Showers are with tokens which are 25 cents for 7 minutes has hit water. The bad thing is there is no lake or river or anything in the camp site you gotta drive min 10 mins to go close by water or to even fish. Overall nice place to camp or bring a RV.

    Overall a decently maintained campground. Staff is friendly. Campsites come in various sizes with the options of Dry Camping, Water/Electricity and Pull-Thru (mostly dirt) sites. Lots of trees with plenty of shade (not all sites) during this time of year (spring). Bathrooms and Showers are as expected and clean enough for being a privately owned campground. Attempted to take a shower (front building) but NO HOT WATER was coming out. Called the office and the girl that came out said it should be working. She mentioned each shower works off a timer and sometimes you have to wait for it to cycle through. After spending about 40 mins going from one shower stall to another and still no hot water. Gave up and just took a bird bath in the bathroom sink. Went to the office and got a refund for the shower tokens. Convict Lake Resort has a more reliable shower system. There is NO Secure Online-Reservation system. You have to call the office and read your Personal and Credit Card Info over the phone to who knows who in order to reserve. There is plenty of Firewood available to purchase at the office for about $8 a bundle. If you are a light sleeper, the street (Schober Lane) that runs along the outside of the campground has all kinds of loud vehicles that will on occasion go up and down the street throughout the night.

    Beautiful campground. Friendly staff. Super clean bathrooms and showers! I don't like camping but coming here for the first time changed my mind about camping. Me and my family enjoyed it. You won't be disappointed. I'm very picky and wants everything nice so this one I brag to all my friends and family. Experience it for yourself!

They have a beautiful patio and a really nice interior, making it a great stop for a quick, authentic Mexican lunch or even just to grab snacks and drinks. They also have fun Mexican goodies like horchata and spicy drinks. Highly recommend the bowls, quesadillas, and burritos. Such a great road trip find!
