Fresno Reservoir Boondocking

  There are three areas along the shore of the reservoir where camping is permitted. We decided on Fresno Beach Day Use Area because the road from US 2 is paved. The day use area is large and has a flat, gravel lot for designated camping. The rest of the area seems to be open for camping too. With that in mind we drove to the top of a little hill and camped where we had a view of the reservoir.

  There’s also a grassy tent camping area that is sloped but it has trees and is close to the lake. The area west of the designated camping area is crisscrossed with roads that should lead to nice spots near the water but the roads we saw looked very rough so we didn’t explore farther.

   The designated camping lot is large enough for any RV. Most RVs will also fit in the grassy area near where we camped. Reservoir  48.59566, -109.95215
