Diamond Campground

Stayed In site A004 July '15. Plenty of tree cover, HUGE spot with enough space for 2 large tents and parking for 2 cars. Very quiet at night even though there were many families around. The campground is below the road so the road noise was greatly reduced. Great spot for last minute campers- many open spots on the weekend. There are cows which equals lots of crap everywhere. Lots of bugs as well but few mosquitos- no bites in my group.
Spots on Loop B and C are more exposed to the sun. There is a river running through so at night you hear it along with so many birds.
Red Ledges Picnic area is down the road and GREAT for rock scrambling. Watch for rattlers even at night. Don't miss the Fifth Water Hot Springs hike also near by.

We stayed here last July, and at the height of camping season, the campground was 1/2 full. Campsites are relatively private and there is a beautiful trail out of the campground that we took for just 2 miles before we had to turn back due to lack of time. I was amazed-- in California you could never find a campsite this beautiful & this empty in the middle of summer season. Also, we saw a roadrunner when driving out. Beautiful campground.
