After missing our turn for two California state campgrounds (that were unmarked) we pulled in here because we were just too tired to go any further. Take the "resort" concept with a grain of salt, however. This park is old and has few amenities. Entrance is down a steep mountainside with two sharp switchbacks. Dirt-pad spaces. No hookups. Primitive. Where it sits on Silver Lake is marshy and geese-ridden.

Don't pay for Wi-fi. The woman who checked us in told me that wi-fi was available for $5 a day through the phone company in the nearby (40 miles) town of Volcano. But 30 minutes later, after I logged on to the wi-fi site and paid the $5, I got no connection. When I asked her about it she said the park was not responsible for that. She said the campground had a poor connection, that other RVers had failed to connect too after purchasing Wi-fi. In fact, she couldn't get a connection on her own phone! When I then asked why she had told me about purchasing Wi-fi when she knew it didn't work, she denied telling me about it. You can take that for what it's worth.

The one plus, we had come up from the desert at Fernley and the 7,000 ft. elevation at Silver Lake was nice and cool, and on a Monday night it was very quiet.
