PSEA members pay a nightly rate that is well below the cost of average lodging and in return you have to clean up after yourself. Your cabin should be left just as clean (or cleaner) than you found it. You also need to bring your own linens, but the kitchens are stocked with the essentials including soap and paper towels, pots and pans, silverware, drink glasses, coffee filters, ect. We stayed in the "Cook House" this weekend. The cook house features a 6ft fridge and two 4 burner gas stoves with ovens. Certainly higher end appliances than you'd expect in a cabin. The Cook house is also very large, equipped with two bedrooms and a huge living and entertainment space. The fireplace was perfect for the cold weather, just make sure to bring your own wood. Camp Wishon is also conveniently located a short distance from another handful of places to visit including Yosemite, Oakhurst, casinos and more. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and are already planning our next trip! Thanks to the caretakers and PSEA for an awesome experience!

Beautiful location, right on the lake and within 45 minutes to the south entrance of Yosemite National Park. We had a great time and would come back again.

Great Location & Warm Water, But Pack Light and Bring Bug Spray…read more Well, it's time for my family's annual camping trip! This year we wanted to check out Bass Lake, CA. There are several spots around the lake, but since we were booking through Recreation.gov, we landed on Spring Cove. I always try to book campsites close to the water, and on paper, this campground looked perfect. The Good Prime Lake Access: The location is super close to the water. You just have to cross the main road, walk down a little hill, and there you are! We selected sites nearest the road to ensure easy access to the lake, which is our main source of entertainment. The kids absolutely loved it. The water was warm enough to swim for hours, but cool enough to be refreshing in the summer heat. Bonus Perks: We loved that our parking permit came with a 15% discount for boat rentals at Miller's Landing Resort (just about a mile down the road). We used it to book a half-day boat rental, and it was easily one of the highlights of the trip! Awesome Camp Host: Shout out to Patrick for being incredibly cool and helpful. The Not-So-Good The Bathroom Situation: The flushing toilets were shut down, meaning we had to use porta-potties. Yuck! I am not a fan and found it pretty stressful. Thankfully, Miller's Landing was close enough to "take care of business" when needed. Yes, I'm weird, but I just can't with the porta-potties. Tiny Sites: The sites themselves are small. We are used to the larger, less crowded campgrounds up north at higher elevations, so we had to seriously adjust our layout for our party's three campsites and varying tent sizes. When the website says "small tent," they really mean small tent. Don't try bringing a mansion tent here unless you want to be moving picnic benches around just to make it fit. Mosquitoes: There were a lot of them. Be sure to pack plenty of bug repellent options. Despite the tight squeeze and the bathroom bummer, it was a great trip. I think we might have just found our new annual spot!

Okay so the only reason why I know about this place is because of my mom. I wanted to go camping…read morelast year in 2014 (I got a 6 person tent at target for like $30 it was on hella clearance) so we went there. The drive there is intense the last couple of miles past North Fork. Take a car or truck you don't mind trekking a dirt road!! The place is actual perfection. We didn't have to pay you literally pull in and pick a spot. Each campsite has 1) a place to park a car marked with a wooden post on the ground 2) a bathroom (no running water) 3) a fire pit with a grill on top 4) a place to set up a tent I wouldn't recommend a RV or for people who don't like camping. The surrounding area is beautiful tall trees, quiet and there was literally only one other family there but it's like we were all alone. The falls are very close "over the bridge" and it is beautiful. I haven't been back sorry if info isn't 100% accurate but it's the best place I've camped in a while for free Like I said not a lot of amenities just good old fashioned camping

We had our annual camping trip at one of the local campsites near Miller's Landing resort. One of our days we decided to use our 15% off coupon from our campsite to Rent a 9 persons pontoon boat. The folks working at the counter for the boat rental were friendly and helpful. I wish I could say the same thing for the dude's working at the actual boat dock. They gave us weird vibes. Like, have y'all never seen Asians renting a boat? WTF are you guys glaring at? WTF is so funny? It was irritating AF! Thankfully, the time on the water was really fun! The kids had such a good time zipping around on the water and we also rented a tube that we towed off the back of the pontoon boat. Yes, it's not a speed boat, but it was fast enough for the kids to enjoy being towed around. The next day we went back to Miller's Landing to use their public showers. Five dollars for five minutes. Make it quick! The shower's were clean, water was warm, or cold if you prefer, but the line can get long. There is no complimentary shampoo, soap, or conditioner, so be sure to BYO. It was a good option for those of us who were tent camping that NEEDED a shower. Although we didn't dine in the restaurant, we did get drinks, ice cream, and milkshake's from the café, all of which were really tasty. We will definitely plan to incorporate a boat rental, showers, and meals at Miller's Landing when we plan our annual camping trip for next year!

They typically attend for a two week session and have consistently returned thrilled, having tried many new activities, having loved their counselors and made many new, great friends. Activities include: Horses, Archery, Paddle Boarding, Swimming in the Lake, Banana Boats, Biking, Rock Climbing, and Tomahawk Toss. Our kids report that the food is great, the songs and campfires are fun, the activities are great and there is nothing about it that they don't love. As a parent, it is easy to stay in touch...the Director (who is wonderful) posts a detailed summary each day on their password protected website of what is happening at Camp each day, and about 100 candid photos are posted each day to show what is going on around the Camp. The pictures are a great way to (sometimes) see candid shots of your kids and still feel in touch. The kids are able to get letters everyday and larger "care packages" once a week so you can stay in touch. We have interacted with the owners, nurse, and camp management on several occasions and have been impressed every time. These folks are great professionals! We will continue to send our kids to this remarkable Camp and commend Skylake for being such an oasis. Keep up the great work! Skylake is a dream...a 5-star camping experience!
