T - I found this campground in "California Camping" by Tom Stienstra, and I RV camped there in July 2004.
Campground Review
This is a state park, and it's a great one. The sites are pretty level, easy to back into with an RV or car, and well spaced out. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring, and comes with a troop of resident squirrels. The bathrooms are cleaned daily and in good shape. The doors actually latch! The shower house has individual shower rooms with their own door and are very roomy, which is essential if you're camping with small children you'll need to bathe with you. They also are clean. They are pay, but they are generous with the water, and I believe it's 2.5 minutes per quarter. The camping loop roads are paved, so the kids can ride their bikes or scooters. There is also a bike trail that picks up right at the front of the campground. We've stayed at a private park nearby for W/E hookup, and it was terrible compared to Sugar Pine. In my opinion, this is the best campground to stay at near the lake, including the resorts.
