Bridgeport Reservoir is a lake at the lower end of Bridgeport Valley in Mono County, California. Its earth-filled dam was constructed in 1923 by the Walker River Irrigation District, along the East Walker River. The campground and marina was built I-don't-know-how-long ago, but it sure is nice! About Us: Welcome to Bridgeport Reservoir Marina and Campground. Join us for the classic camping and fishing experience with unique views of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range. Within the Toiyabe National Forest, Bridgeport Reservoir Marina and Campground is conveniently located near two distinct hot spring areas. A true angler's paradise, the Reservoir has excellent trout fishing from spring through fall and is close by to multiple rivers for incredible fly fishing. A 35 minute drive on highway 120 will take you to the Tioga Pass Gate of Yosemite National Park. This gate is a great start to several different areas inside of the park that you may want to visit beyond that gate. Off-road enthusiasts would not have enough time in one visit to explore all of the 4x4 trails, abandoned mines, and sites in the area as well as the famous trail that brings you right to the Bodie Ghost Town. Climate and Ecosystem: At 6,400 feet (1,950 meters), this high desert climate has little to moderate tree coverage and gets hot during the days and cool at night. The conditions are much like Joshua Tree National Park or Alabama Hills camping area. During your visit, you will notice many flying insects that resemble mosquitos. These Chironomid are harmless and do not bite. On the contrary, the mosquito presence is very minimal. Swimming in the lake is possible usually between April to July.

Nice campsite with a great view over the reservoir! The tent sites are near to the water in front of the rvs, which is nice. The bathrooms need a little handy-work, but they do the Job. Great site to relax and visit monolake the next day!

I accidentally booked the campsite for the wrong day, but I was able to smoothly communicate with someone over the phone who tried to make it work for me. I didn't end up staying here but I appreciate the effort that they put in to accommodate for me.

I loved how easy it was to check in and get to the campsite. The views were on point and the other campsites were quiet. One thing to note tho is that you are right by the water so the wind can pick up through the evening but it dies down after sundown. Also, Bridgeport does not have any stores for supplies so be sure you have everything before arriving.

Clean bathrooms. Well maintained grounds. We didn't have any privacy as other sites are right next to you. The mosquitos are unreal!!!!!! We didn't get bit cause we loaded up on bug spray, but I have never seen anything like it. We enjoyed ourselves and the kids had a great time. We stayed one night in a tent and didn't take advantage of the water..
