"Reviewers describe Hidden View Campground as a beautiful, quiet, “hidden gem” with lake views, good swimming, and solid amenities for both RVs and tent campers. Clean restrooms, free hot showers, and reasonably priced campsites stand out. One review notes an unpleasant interaction with a specific ranger, but overall sentiment is very positive."

About Hidden View Campground

Tucked away in California's scenic foothills, Hidden View Campground lives up to its name as a peaceful retreat within the beautiful Hensley Lake recreation area. This Central Valley gem offers campers a perfect base for exploring one of the region's most beloved lakeside destinations, where rolling hills meet sparkling waters.
Part of Hensley Lake recreation area.
Natural Features and SceneryThe campground embraces the diverse landscape that makes Hensley Lake recreation area so special. Nestled among oak-dotted hillsides characteristic of the Sierra Nevada foothills, campers find themselves surrounded by the golden grasslands and rugged terrain that define this transitional zone between valley and mountains. The setting provides that quintessential California foothill experience, where the ecosystem shifts from lowland to highland, creating habitat for diverse wildlife and offering scenic vistas across the recreation area's 1,500-acre reservoir and surrounding countryside.
