Default Beach/Lakefront Camping within 200 miles..

I want to camp at a nice spot with my girl for our anniversary, preferably a lake since the coast can get quite windy. I'm looking for something right next to a body of water and that isn't crowded. I want some seclusion. Any ideas?

You're probably going to get crowed if you pick any place that's next to a body of water and has a developed campground.

North: I'm thinking Buck's Lake near Quincy.

Central: Lake Alpine in Alpine County. Highland Lakes a bit further up Ebbetts Pass.

South: Cherry Lake in Tuolumne County near Yosemite. Probably the least likely to be crowded. Maybe Lake Eleanor in Yosemite NP.

Have fun!

Does she like to hike? Anything that's a "hike-in" campground is likely going to be pretty empty, even though you can find some that are close enough to the parking lot that you could make multiple trips. PG&E runs a bunch of campgrounds near their dammed lakes. Recreational Areas
