Trumbull Lake Campground
Trumbull Lake Campground is set in a thick lodgepole pine forest on the banks of scenic Trumbull Lake. Aspens and summer wildflowers dot the landscape. The lake offers canoeing and fishing for rainbow, brown, and brook trout. The Virginia Lakes area is very close, offering additional canoeing and fishing, as well as hiking and horse trail access into the adjacent Hoover Wilderness Area and Yosemite National Park. This campground contains several single-family sites, a few double sites, and one triple site, all with picnic tables, fire rings with grills, and bear boxes. Vault toilets, potable water, and garbage/recycling services are provided. A campground host is located on-site; firewood is available for purchase. Roads and parking spurs are dirt.
