Camping at Cedar Bluff near Bass Lake

Public campground · Bass Lake · 22 campsites

A forested campground near trout fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

The lake itself supplies the main draw: Bass Lake has a small beach and a boat ramp and supports swimming, motorized and non-motorized boating, water skiing and sailing, plus fishing for bass, trout, bluegill and catfish; bald and golden eagles are commonly seen along the shoreline. Several hiking options start nearby, including Willow Creek, Goat Mountain, Spring Cove and the Way-of-the-Mono Interpretive Trail, and the ranger district runs educational programs on summer weekends.

“Lovely campsite by the lake. The fire pits seemed like they were recently replaced. The camp host was very friendly and helpful and the bathrooms were kept very clean. We enjoyed our stay very much! ”

“My Family and I had a great time Thank you staff specially, Mary very kind, informative and friendly.”

Paul O 5 · Aug 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Camp host very nice and accommodating! Site was roomy but not very shaded. Fit my trailer plus boat with room to spare in a double space. Lake was beautiful and the water perfect. Was in space 11. There were bears present in campground so keep food stored out of site. ”

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (6,073 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
