This place is a hidden gem. It's fairly easy to get to, unless you're going on a Friday afternoon. There are a few different ways to get here, but you want to avoid the Cajon Pass if at all possible. Going through Crestline was just as easy. It's a beautiful recreational area, with a great staff, and lots to do. You can bring your own boat, for a small inspection fee. Or you can rent stuff here as well. They also offer camping. It's definitely worth checking out. I came here with a large group for a weekend event.

Perfect spot to test them out, routine maintenance and service before sending them back to the customer for rental @flipmotorsatv #wookersgarage #flipmotorsatv

We will be back! Wonderful winter camping in late December. Edit: These are views from our site, on the upper full hook up area.

The best way to enjoy this park is to go online first and see if you can book your reservations ahead- they sell out quickly! The campgrounds are awesome (except for the occasional yucky bathroom) there's clean showers and fire pits, grills, and the campsites are quite spacious, enough so you don't feel invaded by neighbors. They have boat rentals too, it's 1st come, 1st serve- get here before 5:30am so you can snag a reservation! There's also dock fishing and they're definitely biting!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

How do i make reservations for boats

Carl Jones | Aug 29, 2020
Kenneth Contreras | Aug 29, 2020

You can call them directly or visit them online. Also, your boat must pass inspection and anyone operating the boat must have a boat operator permit as required by new state law. Here is a link to their website for more information. Hope it helps. Silverwood is a beautiful place with lots to do and see outdoors! I highly recommend it. For boat reservations call: 1-800-444-7275 Or visit: https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=650

I'll bring pulling a 21 foot camping trailer. How is the road on the 138? Winding uphill climb? Or flat

Dave Duncan | Aug 30, 2018
George Robles (Georges Garage) | Aug 30, 2018

Depends where you come in at. 15 + 138 has some steep climbs and some sharp turns. Yes road construction is going on to straighten it out a bit. If coming from Hespria via Summit Valley Rd. Then will have a less steep climb, and less sharp turns. Meets 138 at Country Store/gas station. If coming via 173, there are some sharp turns, but not bad from Hespria Lakes to Mojave Forks campground. Gets a little bit sharp on two turns, go slow and really no problems just more curves to 138. Should be wide enough and fine, meets 138. My travel trailer is 28'8" on box, 32'6" bumper to hitch. Campsites are just long enough for trailer and space is usually wide enough for side by side parking. If you want to see the camp sites, go to my picture if you want to see mid-day shade for RV sites. Full hook-ups at all RV sites.Power, water, Drain/Dump. Some restrooms where renovated about a year ago. Showers need quaters. And they have a dump station in case no using site with hook-ups.

Turn left towards at first point after the booth sign will say cleghorn, head to lot six has a swim area. If you go straight, will come across signs for the marina, swim area is to the left of the bait shop. There is also a good area to swim and pull the jet ski up at. That area is to the left of the paddle boat and jet ski rental. Both areas have tables, restrooms / porta potty if closed for season. Cost $10 per vehicle for the day. There are covered patios near marina side. And the have BBQs at each spot for charcoal, and a charcoal pit to snuff out the coals.

I don't know about the algae. We saw people swimming when we went in June. I went kayaking but not swimming. It was a great place to camp and i would go back even for a day trip.

Do we need reservations to camp with tents??

Christiana Calderon | Aug 30, 2019
Jimmy | Aug 30, 2019

Where's the best spot for a BBQ and swim for a group of 50 ? What is the best day to go during the week? And how much is parking?

Marina Tritschler | Aug 30, 2019
Erika McRae | Aug 30, 2019

Anytime M-Th. Opens at 6, closes @9 I am a previous employee, I do not recommend Cleghorn for swimming. The water can be more stagnant and there are more likely to be leeches. After entry @ $10/vehicle , I recommend staying on Sawpit Canyon Road and parking either in the Marina parking which is near the boatlaunch parking and go on the main beach where there will be a life guard. If you bring your own grill, propane only. Otherwise, grills are available in the picnic area, behind the swim beach. First come, first serve. Although the summer season is coming to an end, if you are coming on a Saturday or Sunday, I recommend that you arrive early before 10 a.m. if you want to ensure parking. If parking is no longer available near the marina, you will still be able to access the beach from parking lots 1 2 and 3. Good luck!

Angel Meza | Aug 30, 2018
George Robles (Georges Garage) | Aug 30, 2018

Dogs are fine. Must be leashed (have seen multiple times where dogs ran no leash but also no rangers in site) and pick up after them. Walk in in certain areas for free. Usually hikers come via Pacific Crest trail and will pitch a tent after gate is locked on one side. They actually have camp sites for hikers and bikers that have the shortest walk to the lake opposite side of lake from lot 6/cleghorn. No power, second set of bathrooms are pretty close with showers that run on quarters. Place is fairly clean and well kept. And usually has a camp host somewhere on property. Usually best to have reservations. But they usually have a few sites as a first come first serve. And if you want to keep site, have to be there early to pay to reserve the site the next day they open. Believe me, you can also be beat out by other campers at 6am. I was second in line, had to jump to other site for a night. Currently open at 6am-8pm at the booth, 6am - 9pm park hours. Can pull in after hours and pay.
