My friend had her RV parked there and it got broken into and a lot of things got damaged I went there to do some repairs on it and they got upset about it I did not like this place and the food wasn't all that great either

Welcome center Nancy and Lynn are outstanding. Short staffed but these 2 doing work of 4 creating smiles no matter circumstances. Assistant Manager should stay away from guests very moody. I like it here for the most part NEW REVIEW Had the opportunity to meet new manager in newly redone office spaces. Been at least an 2 years since I'd seen space that was musty and unwelcoming. Clean well lit,new paint it's now an office to welcome guests not storage with desks! Gwen seems like a pleasant positive person wanting the best for guests .Minden is on the way up! Updated review Great improvements happening here Member after hours number up and working well. Updated handout detailing all need to know information! Easy to read print clear and concise! Many more facility updates in progress We'll deserved thanks and credit to Thousand trails Less than 2 maintenance guys left that includes honey wagon rounds They need to improve staffing so members can smile more

Friendly staff. This campground is more for the older crowd. Rentals No longer have any boats (paddle) etc. No activites, except mini golf. Playground has 3 swings. The other one is rusty. I wish i could have given a better review, but it is what it is.

The "lake" is green and nobody was in the water, only ducks. We came ready to swim and kayak, but it was not appealing. The hookup section is VERY compacted with little to no privacy. It seems like many people live here or stay for long periods of time. Nobody is out of their RVs, it's dead. There is nothing to do around here. There are ALOT of bugs, and bug spray doesn't seem to bother them. We considered leaving early, but we had already wasted gas pulling our trailer all the way over here plus food and supplies. We ended up spending more having to make it a casino weekend at the Sac Hard Rock. Safe to say, we will NOT be coming back.

Questions & Answers

For anyone who has recently visited, is it open for swimming? Thanks!!

GD Reddoch | Sep 29, 2020

It is open for swimming/day use as of last week!

Can you go swimming or put your feet in the water?

Rani Gill | Sep 30, 2018
Debbie Delany | Sep 30, 2018

The water has been tested and it's fine for swimming. The merky cloudy is because of a clay bottom. My grandkids have swam in it quite often with no health problems. There are cat fish in the Lake and people are not allowed to fish near swimming areas. But we have our kids wear swim shoes in case of things that you can't see.

Does this resort have a pool

Arlene Vigars | Sep 30, 2019
Beverly Bestpitch | Sep 30, 2019

No pool. I wish they did. That would be a huge bonus! However, you can wade in the lake (pond), paddleboat, canoe, or float on floats, but no pool. It's more of a campground than a resort.

It's on the map of Uber Sacramento area which is huge - all the way north to the Oregon border, to the coast near Shasta, and to the Nevada border almost down to Fresno, but the bay area is not covered by Sacramento Uber. Going to be pricey, though.

Not only for members! They welcome the public. You can come by yourself, or rent cabins, or the quonset hut for special occasions. We've seen weddings, family reunions, service clubs, and birthday parties! Check with the office for large groups.

Louie Regalado | Sep 30, 2018
Beverly Bestpitch | Sep 30, 2018

Sammie's in Nicolaus catered our banquet. When we order sandwiches, someone from our group picks up our orders at their place. Blue Heron cafe in Lake Minden is only open Fri-Sun for breakfast and lunch only. Lake Minden's country store/check in area has some ice cream treats and as few other food items for sale. That's about it. 15 min south to Scramento are a bunch of restaurants, as well at 18 miles north in Yuba city.
