Strawberry Point Campground Eldorado National Forest California

Strawberry Point Overview

Strawberry Point Campground has 10 first-come, first-serve campsites and is located on the shore of beautiful Ice House Reservoir in the Eldorado National Forest.

The campground is generally open mid-May to mid-October. Campsites 1-5 have nice views of the water but they are small (camper van or tent) and right next to each other (little privacy). Sites 6-10 are larger, more private but lack water views. Camp roads and parking spurs are paved. Each site also has a table, food storage locker (bear box), fire ring and grate.

Amenities include vault toilets and trash collection. Piped (potable) water is not available, but you can filter the nearby lake water.  A dump station and boat ramp are available at nearby Ice House Campground. A few overflow parking spaces are available. Cell service is poor in the area.

Other campgrounds in the area include Northwind, Ice House and Silver Creek Group.
