Camanche Recreation Company _ North Shore

Lake and camp sites are nice however the traffic speed on the corner of Bret Hart and Launch Plana Rd are driving way to fast for the sites to be right up against this road. Most go 50 MPH, with dogs and children present. Speed bumps are a nuisance but MUCH NEEDED!

Took my dogs for a walk Very nice.only complaint I got is dogs are not allowed in the hiking trails which they should be allowed since they charge entry per dog and persons.

We like this place overall but the bathrooms/showers for tent campers are the worst of any place we’ve ever been. For as many visitors as they get this is embarrassing. We visited over Memorial Day weekend and this particular shower had a removable head/wand that was leaking but they had duct taped. It was barely functional then but sufficed. We returned in August thinking they surely would have replaced it but instead they just removed it leaving this laughable option for a shower. You can just imagine how difficult it was to get all the soap off those private areas and as a woman forget washing your hair. Won’t be going back as tent campers. It’s fine if you have an RV with full hook-ups or don’t like to shower after a day in the lake.

Do not visit this lake if it is for the day it is rubbish if someone else is going to arrive later they do not stop bringing it if already there family inside I do not recommend it there are more options

Absolute worst camping in California! The type of people that come here dont have a clue what "basic camping etiquette" is. We paid for water front site and people completely walked all over our site and set up on the water in the site we paid for completely blocking our view and access to the water. These people wipe their feet on your rugs outside your tent and camper. They drop trash in your fire pit. Staff wont do anything about it.

I could never say enough good things about Lake Camanche. We recently held a Celebration of Life at the Blue Oaks group site at the North Shore and it was the absolute perfect setting to celebrate our beloved son/brother/nephew/cousin/uncle/friend. The camp sites were extremely well taken care of, the lake is absolutely stunning and the staff truly went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was as enjoyable as possible given the circumstances. I highly recommend booking your visit to this true California gem!

Beautiful grounds, friendly staff and great camp sites on/near the water. Will definitely be back.

Our annual Fathers Day camping trip was awesome, from our location to the lake level.totally awesome.

Drove out here for two hours for a birthday party. Got here at 4: 45PM, and was denied entry because Day Entry was closed. Was told they are not going to let anyone in for the rest of the day even as people leave. Did not matter that you could physically see plenty of parking available.

I don't understand what their deal is. Don't plan your get-togethers here over any type of holiday weekend. They completely wasted our Saturday and they won't care.

I had a great time! Fair warning there is a MASSIVE roach infestation. I mean everywhere. I think it's wild no other reviews mentioned it. I saw none during the day but I camped in south south and the roaches when the sun whent down was so disgusting. You couldn't walk around with stepping on them. We had a water fountain in our site and there were probably 50+ just at the water alone. It was pretty repulsive. Other then that the water was so warm, camp site was clean, everything was great!

Price is 18$ for dayuse, very expensive and no rentry, the pass seller at the entry could have told about the no reentry thing when she sold the ticket. I went out for food and they didnt allow me back. Very bad to sell over capacity and then hide information from customers and then stop reentries ruining customers days. They also printed 'NO REENTRY' text on the pass in a very very low ink in a way it becomes easy to get confused or to miss for customers.

Big shout out to DANI she was awesome. Thank you for stopping by and saying hello and leaving our kids some gifts.

Camanche recreation It is a pleasant place to go with the family. In hot weather you can enjoy a roast beef and enjoy the lake. I recommend it. You will love it. I recommend bringing your own table and chairs and an umbrella because there is not much shade. In this place you can also take your boat
