This is a gem of a spot. My mother's family as well as my mother-in-laws family have been going here for years...since they were little girls. We have kept the family tradition ourselves with our kids and my own kids look forward to bringing their kids someday. It has changed in recent years. There are now designated day use areas and camp spots, as well as more bathrooms. They are supposed to have started charging $15 a night. Having come here all these years and loving this little spot, it's worth the $$. The best swimming spot in peace and tranquility. Enjoy a day of wadding, gold panning, fishing, checking out Sly Creek Reservoir, lots of off-roading roads throughout. Lots of fun for the whole family.
