We moved here in 1997 The home has had major remodels done on it. The lake is an old gravel pit to make road base for local road construction. The buoys in the lake are scuba projects from the local college CMU, and hold lots of fish. Other nesting platforms are for our local Geese and they hatch out in April-June. We airbnb 2 rooms in our home as a shared facility and have airbnbs in Northern Ca and Baja. Our home is off limits for campers as we need to respect the space for our other airbnb guests. But in an emergence please call, cell service works fine. port-a potty is gone for the winter November-April. port-a potty is clean and works great, May- Oct. If you are here in the winter you may use the trees or Mavericks gas station in 1.5 miles away.

Water Retreat
Loved that the site was right on the lake, the campsite was fully set up with firewood, a water bucket and a picnic table with a light. Mike came buy to say hello, and offered many insights on fun things to do locally.

Site 1, RV or Tent, next to a dock
We love this for place! We will be back! Close to town and so many activities in the area. The lake is beautiful and the sunsets never disappoint. It might be our dog’s favorite camping place on earth. Mike is helpful and hospitable and all of the other campers we’ve met have been lovely people.

Site 2 Tent, big area, best shade.
Beautiful spot, nice touches
Wow! There is a lot of thought and care that this site offers. We have a Bronco with rooftop tent and had plenty of space to sprawl out if we wanted. The firewood provided was greatly appreciated, loved the candles at each spot, and noticed there was a hammock and a couple of canoes if we wanted to use them. Would definitely recommend this spot. GPS link from Hipcamp took us a little off course but met a nice neighbor and realized putting in the given address vs. relying on Hipcamp link was better. Thank you Mike!

Lake Side Camping
A small pull-off area located beside the private lake, though the view of the lake is somewhat obscured by the surrounding foliage. Complimentary firewood and a fire pit are available. This location served as an excellent base for setting up camp and exploring the Palisades.
