Discover Loon Lake RV rentals for memorable road trips

Tucked away deep in the heart of the expansive Eldorado National Forest lies Loon Lake, an enchanting paradise that is very popular among the motorhome camping circles in Sacramento and California as a whole. Loon Lake owes its massive popularity mainly to its ideal location. Sitting about 23 miles away from Placerville along Highway 50, it’s an ideal spot to set up basecamp for your travel trailer when exploring the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Eldorado National Forest is also tucked in between Tahoe National Forest to the north and Stanislaus National Forest making it one of the best playgrounds for outdoorsy folks in The Golden State. If you’re down for an adventure, search for an RV in El Dorado County and make memories hopping from one campground to another.

Getting Outdoors

If there’s one thing to try out in Loon Lake, it has to be the fishing. After dropping a line, some of the fish to expect biting on your hook include bass, bluegill, and crappie. Try out some jigging to improve your chances. Don’t forget to bring along a California fishing permit. Complete with a boat ramp, the high-country is awesome for a day out in the boat.

Camping at Loon Lake

When you have made up your mind to go RV camping at Loon Lake, it’s a nice idea to familiarize yourself with the RV parks in the area. Located on the southern shores of Loon Lake, check out the Loon Lake Campground if proximity to the lake is of utmost priority. The park has a total of 65 sites with no hookups, but water spigots and toilets are provided for campers. The campground also has fire rings, picnic tables, and bear-proof storage boxes.

Exploring the Area

When your time camping in a rental motorhome at Loon Lake is almost over, spare some time for exploring the region since who knows when you’ll be back. Lucky you if you’re using a four wheel drive vehicle to tow your campervan as the 22-mile-long Rubicon Trail is an off-roaders utopia. Being one of the most famous off-road tracks in America, off-roaders often cross the oceans to test out the punishing track. Given the nature of the trail, it is best traversed in groups of at least three vehicles.

The trailer was set up quickly, and SHON is very nice. Everything was in working condition. Love the outdoor blue LED lights. Refrigerator kept everything extremely cold. Stove and oven light quickly. It was perfectly comfortable for the two adults on the trip. Shon explained how everything works very well.
