Kari was very welcoming and greeted me with a wave and a smile when I arrived.
The property was just as advertised and I appreciated the details that Kari planned for her guests - from the comfy outdoor couch to having a soft place to set up a tent.
I was in the area just a short time to explore and I hope to return here again someday.

What a great experience to stay at Kari’s campground! She was so helpful with everything! The sites are clean and organized. She has put in a “flush” toilet bathroom, which is a game changer. While there glamping, she even brought me and a friend to a local concert to celebrate Memorial Day. She lent me her E-bike to ride around the lake. The location is great, close to the lake but still pretty central to the town of Portola. I’ll be back again next year. Great vacation location!

This camp spot is a true gem. Kari loves this property and you can tell by her attention to detail, the cozy camp spots for two trailers or rvs and one small tent site. The sites are perfectly spaced, clean and peaceful. We can't wait to go back!!

Kari is an amazing host! Very accommodating and personable. The site has everything for a comfortable stay including a very clean bathroom! Kari even had games and a cool shed with a bar to help give everyone a place to gather and meet fellow campers. Will be planning another family trip soon!

This camping spot was awesome, and Kari was amazing! She was super attentive and worked with you to make the site as comfortable as possible, gave recommendations for local spots and events to explore, and more! The site is clean with awesome amenities that Kari provides. Will definitely come back in the future.

Kari was so accommodating and friendly, she greeted us right away and gave us a tour of our spot. We felt right at home immediately! There was even a little shack next to our spot that had a game area! My son was very happy! We were very pleased with our stay and the host and will be back!

Kari was absolutely awesome, extremely hospitable, and was always available for anything we needed. She gave great recommendations, and even let us borrow her can opener! :)
The space itself was really great. Lots of room for parking, nice, large flat areas for tents (bring a tarp, though, because it is mostly gravel), chairs and picnic table, a cool little setup underneath some aspens and pines. Pop-up toilet situation was easy to work with. Really nice to have access to potable water and firewood.
The BARn was freakin' epic! It was so fun to spend a day at Lake Davis kayaking and swimming, then coming back and roasting up some dinner on the provided fire pit (so awesome!) and hanging out in the converted mini-barn. It had fun lighting, speakers, a cool bar-style island, couches, etc... Having access to the wilderness and then what felt like our own private little pub back at our campsite? Epic.
My only *heads up* would be that the site itself isn't what I would consider remote. It is super conveniently located, especially with regard to the lake, but it is also part of a larger property, so you do share a driveway with the host's house as well as her tenant's space. It's not bad by any means, but it also isn't a private campsite deep in the woods, so, if you are looking for that type of remote privacy, just keep this in mind.
I went with 4 of my friends for a little bachelor getaway and, ultimately, it rocked. Highly recommend.

Great spot, close to the lake, and no mosquitoes!
Kari was super nice and setup the kids with a rock painting activity! We will be back for sure.

Kari’s campground is such a perfect vacation spot!! Located minutes from the lake and nestled in a beautiful grove of trees, it was such a fun and welcoming experience!
Kari is such an amazing person, she made us feel like family! She greeted us when we arrived and showed us around while also giving tips and explaining the local wildlife, which I appreciated so much as a mom of littles. She also checked in every now and then to make sure we were comfortable and that we had everything we needed. Such a great host!❤️
The site was super spacious, table was clean and the area is so nice we didn’t need to use our bug spray!
The barn is so relaxing as well, and was fun to have lunch in when we got back from Coot Bay(definitely a place worth checking out). Beautiful warm water, sandy beach looking into beautiful trees and mountains. Bring your fishing gear if you like to fish, someone caught a HUGE rainbow trout next to us!! 🐟
We enjoyed the outdoor games provided, and the sound system was a huge plus with a Bluetooth option or we stuck to the local radio station which was great!!
I noticed how Kari’s property gets plenty of both sun and shade at all times during the day, which is HUGE for us as we had our 2y/o, 5y/o & senior pup as well. There was potable water on sight with a hose that made it easy to fill the kids pool!
I’d describe this place as:
Peaceful
Family friendly
Breathtaking
A place to make core memories
(Can I say perfect?)😍
We can’t wait until next time, tysm!

We had a great time camping with our trailer at Kari’s spot. She was very responsive to messages. I highly recommend this spot. The barn and the sites in general would be really fun for a group!
