The Point RV Park

We only stayed a night, but worthy of a several night stay. Full hookups are nice. The views of the mountains a great, and afford some awesome evening and sunset pictures. The sites are narrow pavement, but adequate. Some sites are short, so take care to pay attention to site length. It's a campground in a hill, yet the sites are pretty level. Nicely maintained, and the hosts are very nice and friendly.

We loved this campground and were sad to leave after a week.

The sites are hardtop and our 45ft Class A easily fitted leaving plenty of space for the car in front. Water, sewer, and electricity are well-positioned (one of my pet peeves when they aren't!).

This is all about the view though. Near 360 view of the hills and mountains. Lots of deer. The lake is at 2% at the moment, but apparently that doesn't make the fish 50x more likely to bite!! It's only a few minutes into town and it has just about everything, with good food options. The Mexican restaurant Le Paraiso was one of our favorites and we are used to southern California quality Mexican food.

We are now planning to include this stop in our future trips. One thing that may make booking tricky is that FEMA is moving in some families displaced by the wildfires, so I'm not sure how packed it will be for the next few months.

A note on the deep road dip at the spillway. We touched down with the back of our RV on the way in (it has a roller on the back so no damage, but it was a fairly hard scrape). On the way out I increased the load on the tag axle, lowered the front once it was through the dip so that it would help raise the rear, crossed it somewhat diagonally to get the flattest path and we didn't touch down on the way out! On the way into the campground that flattest path would be entering on the right side and exiting on the left side.

We stayed here with our 41' Solitude and didn't have a problem, but that would be about the longest I'd bring here. Besides the space length, the road in crosses the spillway and we scraped the rear bumper on the way our because it dips so much. Unfortunately there was a fire 20 miles north of us so there was smoke most of the time. The biggest problem was the water level. A local said it was at 10% capacity and while their was still enough for swimming and kayaking and fishing, getting close enough was the issue. The level was dropping 3' day so the shore was so muddy (and at places steep), you could not launch. The boat ramp was 1/4 mile long, but ended way short of the water. All that said, we'd stay here again, but in the springtime when the hills would be green and the water level higher. They have full hookups, some shade trees, great views and you are very close to Ashland and all it offers.

We ended up here last minute and loved it. The camp host very really kind and helpful, the sites are a great size, and the views are beautiful. It's really convenient to the 5 as well. The sites next to the lake have a fairly steep hill down to the water so I wouldn't recommend those if you're camping with little kids. There was an odd noise the first night that we think may have been some sort of pump for the lake but it was not loud enough to bother us. We will definitely be back.

One of those campgrounds that isn’t the most memorable but really checks all the boxes. Such a comfortable place to stay! “Lake” was extremely low while we were there but still pretty mountain views & gorgeous foliage in October.

Pros:

• incredible value, especially for full hookups
• clean sites, decently spaced, not much between sites but they’re nicely staggered for privacy
• really great Verizon signal, 40 down/26 up
• 15 minutes to downtown Ashland
• attentive camp hosts
• quiet and pretty

Cons:
Honestly, none. Again, not a super memorable campground but checks all the boxes.

I think this campground is RVs/trailers only and tent camping is in a separate section of the park (was closed for winter). Obviously the best sites will be waterfront, but if you can’t snag those get one on the top tier in the back, that will have a better view than the middle row sites. We were in 2 which was maybe the worst site in the campground but we were still happy.
