One of two large campgrounds on the north side of New Melones Lake. This side of the lake is apparently the poor relation, because they've locked the bathrooms for the season. One must drive 20 minutes back to Tuttletown for the advertised shower facility.

#138 is a wide open spot on the sunset side of the hill. Very pleasant this time of year, pretty darned hot in the summer no doubt.

The showers are locked and the only bathroom is a portapotty. That sucks.
