What others are saying
Whitestar Campground is a peaceful, scenic spot located just above the westernmost of the Twin Lakes reservoirs. The campground is nestled among pine trees and sagebrush, offering stunning views of the mountains and lake. This is a first come, first served campground, so reservations are recommended for weekends and during the summer. The sites are well-spaced, level, and gravel-padded, and each has a lantern holder, picnic table, and fire ring. There are no facilities here, so visitors should be sure to bring their own water and empty holding tanks. Verizon cell service is available for email and internet searches, but there is no TV reception. The campground host is friendly and helpful, and the area offers plenty of outdoor activities such as fishing, kayaking, hiking, and biking. The boat launch ramps are closed due to the fear of waterborne pests, but visitors can still portage their kayaks over the hill and into the water. There is a $10 fee to dump and a water thief is necessary to fill tanks from the spigot. Whitestar is a great option for those looking for rustic camping with an amazing view.
