We loved our camping trip to Lake Hemet. The facilities were always clean, staff was warm and friendly, and the campground was beautiful. It was very close to where I live and was such a fun experience that we are already looking forward to our next trip.

This place was amazing! It was recommended to me one week and booked for the next week. I'm happy to have had the experience I did have. It all began with a great check-in process (smooth and kind service), readily available and considerate care during the stay, and it ended with just as smooth of a check-out as the check-in. The amenities offered were not all listed, so I was pleasantly surprised to see I didn't have to pack as much as I did. - Bathroom: hand soap, hand towel, toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, and bodywash dispenser in the shower. - Kitchen: Dish soap and sponge, paper towels, dish towels, coffee maker, pots and skillet, mixing bowls, measuring cups and spoons, can opener, corkscrew, knives, cooking utensils, toaster, microwave, tableware for 8 (wine glasses, cups, c

Has a friendly staff. The woman at the entrance was very helpful and informative. Couldn't stay the two nights in there cabin, do to a family emergency. They gave me credit so I can come again this year and pay the difference. That was very cool of them. So over all a wonderful experience.

We had a great 4 month stay this summer! This was our 5th summer at the Lake - as it's the perfect escape from the desert heat!! The staff is what makes it such a pleasure! Every single one of them are just wonderful "stellar" people!! A special big thank you to Jeff Walls! He was very instrumental in setting us up for a perfect situation to make our future returns even more amazing for years to come! Jeff is attentive and works hard to build a good moral within a very diverse community. He makes himself available for any and all situations. We appreciate all the staff and their conscious support of keeping the grounds safe and efficient for the many who call it home! Thank you! Looking forward to next summer already!

Can you update your water quality more often its hard to book a camping trip when the latest results from Aug last year say you cant consume the fish. The past two years water has been unsuitable get it together guys im sure you would have way more business if the beach was swimmable and fish could be eating what's the point of fishing if you cant eat it ? Also the money you spent on splash pads could have went to better water treatment im just saying
