  • After learning bald eagles had been spotted in the near by area around Shaver's Lake we wanted to take a look and also explore an area we weren't overly familiar with or heard a lot about. Located in the Sierra National Forest it was the perfect retreat to high tempers in other places. We secured our reservations for two nights at Camp Edison. In this video we explore the park that is frequently dubbed by the locals as, "Holiday Inn to RV'ers" and share our own campground review. Also make sure to stay until the end where we share "the best kept secret" with you and subscribe so you can see more videos from the area coming soon.
    According to The Dyrt
    43 sites (133-175) are Full Hook-up with Electric, Water, Sewer, and Cable TV
    209 sites have Electric and Cable TV

    Ok, now I think I need to start exploring the Sierras further south of my usual haunts. Great Campground! Oh! That's just north of Hume Lake. I went to that camp a bazillion years ago when I was in Jr Hi and Highschool. Great vid.

      we hear it is real popular with the girl and boy scouts too. we will be returning! have always loved lake tahoe but it's way too crowded all the time.

      Hope the video gives you some great insight and that you watched til the end for some great tips. If you don't have any toys then anyplace is pretty great but if you have water toys, get as close as you can because it's a BIG piece of property.

    This is a very informative video, the kind of video that I seek to share on my FB group for our camping friends. Obviously, we don't make these sort of videos cause we don't camp 😆. What a beautiful area, very reminiscent to Lake Alpine.

      Ah, nothing like the good life Steve and while living it up a bit is alluring, it often turns out the best of our journey comes from within and those we meet - both IRL (In Real Life) as well as here online. It's a pleasure to have the opportunity to know you and link up with y'all in the future... especially Jill although I've learned not to challenge her to a game of Pictionary!!! 😮😵😉

      And if you'd prefer a nearby location that's a bit more like traditional camping, also consider spots like the Dorabelle National Forest Campground that also is adjacent to Shaver Lake.

    Do you know if they have cabins in the area? That looks like a really nice place. I bet your puppy had a good time!

      Not that we saw in Camp Edison itself but I do remember seeing signs in town for rentals.
