From Big Bear Lake, CA, take State Rt. 18 west 1.1 miles to a "T" intersection. Turn right at the intersection onto State Rt. 38 and go 3.3 miles to Butler Peak sign at intersection of North Shore Dr. and Rim of the World Dr. Turn left at sign onto Rim of the World Dr. (which becomes Forest Rt. 3N14) and go 7 miles to campground sign. Turn left at sign into campground.
Nice campground. We came in late at night so we stole the camp host spot. He came to collect fees in the morning and was totally understanding and super helpful explaining where the other campgrounds and yellow post sites were. Unfortunately they were out of water when we went but everything was clean and well maintained. Will definitely be back!
Guy running the camp ground is rude as heck. Literally was interrupted right in the middle of eating lunch by the guy just to be solicited that it was a camp ground. He could've been nice about it. So we had to pack up our half eaten lunch and picnic table into our trucks and drive across the street to the visiting area.
Our favorite place to ride to outside of our back gate. Beautiful scenery.
This is a secluded campground located northeast of Big Bear lake. It takes roughly 30 minutes on a winding dirt road. Lots of off-road vehicles and ATVs here.
