Campsite: Mesa Campground — Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area

I stayed here for three days and two nights. My camp spot was #41. Terrific view. No one was here at the park in early April. Kind of windy. And cold in the evenings. Not good for tent camping at this time of the year. Perfect if you have a self-contained RV. However the rules regarding generators could be a little more generous. You cannot turn your generator on before 10 AM. I think 8 AM is reasonable. Generators must be turned off by 8:00 PM. I can understand that they are trying to keep things peaceful in the early morning and evening hours in case others are asleep. This is dry camping at its finest. Nice level lots. Easy navigation throughout the park. Ideal for trailers up to 23 feet. Larger trailers will have some difficulty finding adequate parking. They do have water situated around the park that you can use to fill up water containers and or freshwater tanks within your RV. There is a bait and tackle shop not far away you can find some necessities there. It is limited. There are his and hers bathrooms and wash basins located in outbuildings around the park. I was happy to see Park Rangers and other law-enforcement patrolling the park regularly. Makes for a safe camping. There are some great mountain biking trails locally. If you’re into that sort of thing. Also plenty of walking paths. This park is pet friendly. So if you have a dog you shouldn’t have any issues. Dogs are not allowed on the beach area near the lake. I Give this park 4 stars instead of 5 because of the lack of a usable dump station and the fact that you can’t turn your generators on until after 10 AM. However that being said I will definitely come again. Decent value.
