It was nice, quiet has beautiful views. The water level was rising each day we were there. We explored a few trails in area great stuff. My most unnecessary part of the campground are the speed bumps on a dirt road with a surface like the moon already built in. Fact. We arrived there going east to west along top of the lake. It's hilly as f. I would visit Lakeside campground again though.
Everything about this campground was fantastic EXCEPT THE CAMP HOST. He was outright rude to us and many of the campers around us. We had 3 sites, 3 families total. 6 adults, 6 young kids. We felt harassed by the host. If you've ever seen The Office, picture Dwight Schrute on steroids. Great spot to camp, minus the narcissistic host on a serious power trip.
Lakeside is a beautiful place to camp. It's right beside a small lake. The best sites are beside the water. Not having spigot water is inconvenient. There have been issues with the camp host re selling sites that have been paid for for a number of days when he thinks the campers have vacated.
Our group of 9 people spent the weekend tent camping at Lakeside (Prosser Lake) Campground. It was beautiful weather and isolated as the lake had flooded many of the RV spaces. My group fished and went out on the lake in tandem kayaks. A relaxing, time in the High Sierra
Hosts were slightly overbearing. I think there had to be 3 of them total the way they drove around constantly on golf carts or trucks. They were nice, but it was weird to feel so watched all the time. Other than that, super clean and beautiful area.
