@DannyLlama awesome, this place looks right up my alley! I made reservations last Friday for this coming weekend. I'm excited.

@Drunner97 when I spoke with Steve he mentioned they've started stocking a couple weeks ago. My boys and I will be fishing, so I'll report back our experience.

Great thread. There are lots of places up the 395 starting in Lone Pine which is 240 miles from here. Most are tree lined and the sites are right on the creeks. This campground is a little further north between Independence and Big Pine.

Very nice, is it fairly accessible?

Yes it is right off the 395, maybe a quarter mile in on a paved road. Check this link out, all of these places are easily accessible.

Regarding Seven Oaks:

Definitely a nice little spot with access to off-road and hiking trails. The rules and prices are more like guidelines. My friends who were there purchased a couple sodas from the store and in the same transaction, one was $1 and the other was $1.50.....

Restaurant food was ok and about what I expected (frozen hamburger patties).

Fishing seems to be non-existent unless they plant. We tried spots along the creek up to about a mile East of the campground with no success. I saw at least 10 others try their luck, and the ones I spoke with had no luck.

Campsites are little close for my comfort, but I'd go back again when so long as it's not a busy weekend.

Sounds like it's probably a good place in the middle of the week.

@trailbound Going back to this, years later, is still resourceful. Which campground is the one you posted the photos of in this thread?

@DannyLlama
Thanks for the tag. I haven't been on the forum for a while. That is Taboose Creek campground near Big Pine.
