Although a quiet and secluded park, my husband and I were not expecting The Towers (what initially appeared to be two gigantic nuclear towers but are actually natural gas towers) so nearby. Upon driving to this isolated area, out in the middle of flat hills and farmers, we were startled by the looming concrete towers, huge warning alarm sirens, dozens of solar panels along the road, and high security surrounding area that resembled too much a military installation. It was a little spooky, to think that an explosion of the gas plant would obliterate us in an instant. We had pre-paid reservations to stay there later in the week but decided to skip it, also realizing that the cost of fuel to get there equaled the $15.00 per night fee. While this might be a good spot for boy scouts, we found it less than desirable. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a regional park operated by the local utility district. Only 18 RV sites and a bunch of tent sites. We found it to be a clean campground located in an attractive setting of rolling hills about 12 miles east of Hwy 99 & 35 miles south of Sacramento. RV sites were level, graveled back-ins. No sewer hook-ups but there is a dump station. There are plenty of trees, a small lake with picnic and fishing areas. It is popular with scouting groups, family week-enders and day-use fishermen (no gas boat motors allowed). It is a busy place in the summer and fall. During the off season, the entrance gate is locked at sundown so campers returning after dark must ring a bell for the night watchman to drive over from the adjacent power plant to open the gate. A couple of times it was a 30-minuite wait. We were there in March (off-season) so not all of the restroom/shower buildings were open - we had to drive from the rv site to the showers on the other side of the park. Overall, we enjoyed the park as an off-season, do-nothing getaway. We camped here in a Motorhome.
