Huge boat launch. Great fishing in a well stocked lake. Beautiful golden hills dotted with oak trees. Squared away camp ground. Clean and well maintained. Great staff, store, boat rentals, and even a swimming pool.

Very scenic lake. Trails need tending. Saw lots of poison oak. Water is great and clear. Well maintained.

This place is great. I love camping and this place has it all. Clean and accessible campsites, bathrooms that work and the food at the cafe is phenomenal. I think the best part is the friendly staff, they are always so cheerful and helpful. I love coming here and I think this is going to be our new family tradition.

Nice clean lake. Clean camp sites. Great service at cafe and marina store. Everyone here is so friendly. It's a quiet relaxing place to take the family.

It's a great place but however I seen two 6 years old at the water while mom and dad were at camp and three dogs not on leashes. The one dog I did see on a leash was pulling a small child behind it as the small child couldn't handle the dog it jumped on me and ripped my favorite fishing pants. This is why I like fish lol.

Like to go camping and fishing for Mother's Day. Always catch fish and fun.

Cameron Frey

Absolutely beautiful place. Alot bigger lake than I had pictured. The dams are very cool, quirky, funky really neat to drive over. The Marina was very nice. Only there for the day to fish, but I would definitely go camping there. Fishing was great and all the staff I ran into were very friendly.

Pardee Lake,, was a fun place to fish.. I and a friend went out there today, and both of us caught our limits of trout.. I have been there many of times, and will continue to go back.. I recommend to all, to go there and fish..

Pradeep Bola

When we were traveling the western part of the US. We stayed here at the end of their season. Employees were very friendly. We had a great time here. It was one of our top favorite places we stayed in the six months we were rving. It rained quite a bit and then we had sunny days, this brought on beautiful lush and green grass everywhere. There were I believe chipmunks all over but not a nuisance. We enjoyed them a lot. We had t-mobile coverage and needed to go to one of the taller hills to get our phones to work pretty well.

Mike Bibbins

A wonderful place to take the family fishing. Great for everyone from grandkids and grandparents, to pro anglers. Good thing they have season passes. We will be getting one!

Lynn Glocker

Loved our first time here. Very clean and well maintained park owned by EBMUD. laundry, showers, rec.rentals on the lake, fishing, Cafe open on the weekends. Fun walking trails along the shore.

David Chapman

Lake was fine but going fishing on opening day this year destroyed my memory from years ago. People were rude, and I even had a pole, cooler, and other items stolen while there. Will be awhile before I go back. Did see some nice Rainbows caught though.

Tim Matsumoto

One of my favorite fishing spots. Lots of nice size trout. Great place to take your family.

Bill Lopez

Very nice camp sites. Two pools and showers and a laundry area. Love that the lake is a fishing only lake, no ski boats or jet skis making noise. Very peaceful.

Deni Curtis

Beautiful atmosphere, great camping, and it's usually pretty quiet because it's not a party lake

NORMA RODRIGUEZ ALONSO

Beautiful scenes lots to see... Long walk trail. Deers, Turkey's, Fish and Quials!

Todd Wittwer

Great hospitality here. This place is well organized and the staff here is top-notch.

Loren Braz

Better quality of fish this opener ! Not the same ole 'White meat' planters usually stocked

Juan Villalobos

Prices for boat rentals are expensive and fish are nonexistent. Used to be a great place. I'm likely not going back at all.

David Kane

Great place, the Staff here really care and it shows in the cleanliness of the park. In the 40 different camp spots of my last 4 month adventure I was very impressed by the park in my own back yard.

Sam Hpoo

I truly love Pardee lake. This lake is so clean and taken care of. The only reason for the 4 star rating is because it seems that the quality of the trout they planted this year is suffering from sores and parasites. I would like to see the kind of fish come out of this lake as I have seen in the previous 10 years. When you pay an healthy fee to fish you expect healthy fish!

Barely 6:40a.m. Fish on already! Wether power bait or lures, you'll have very good days and there will be days, where it feels like there's 0 fish in the lake. All my years of fishing here, I've never came home empty handed.

Patricia Boyd

3 whole day's of camping in peace and quiet!!!. Not normal, but very Happy we got to enjoy it all to ourselves!!!. We will probably never be that lucky again!!! Just only one camp ground site level enough and away from the road to see the lake and put the trailer.

Ty Woodard

Nice, will be back great fishing place, marine store had food & drink and a few thing's on hand.

Lisa Anthomy

Beautiful quiet lake

Kim Schmutzler-Agee

Just my favorite picnic spot.

Lo Saelee

Nice place to bring the family. Was going there to trout fish but they never stock the pond even though the lady said it'll be stock by noon

Geoffrey Powers

Great place . Wonderful people there!!

Corvair

Very clean camp site. Bathrooms are in amazing conditions. The fishing might be slow sometimes, but even then its still fun as long as you come with people. The community is also very kind.

Omar Hussein

Fishing was slow but we has a blast

Paul Mason

Chuck Wojack Jr

Beautiful views and nice clean tent locations.

James Hilton

Nice young lady at the gate allowed my wife and I to ride through the park do we could check it out. And use the restrooms. Very quiet because there weren't many people. Very clean.

Sandra Jones

Thomas Correa

Great place to fish. Me and my son ended up with 18 bass total. Caught and released all. Very peaceful there. Never camped there looking forward to it in the future.

annabeth stoffal

Picnic paradise. My family met here for my mother's birthday. We had a great time. The bbq worked great and the picnic table was in the shade. We had a very easy time finding each other in the picnic areas. Porta potties in very clean order.

David Bradford

Great people great fishing,clean restrooms and easy lake access.

Debra Hernandez

Hubby and I have been coming here for camping, fishing, hiking, swimming and all things outdoors for 30 yrs plus.We always enjoy the clean swimming pool & bbq facilities.Deer galore in the evening time.Great times at the lake!

Joey Guerrero

We love Pardee and the new ownership has continued to make it a good place for families and fishing! We plan on fishing and camping a few times this year at Pardee!

Timeless Home Gallery

A beautiful secluded, peaceful spot.

Naor Karkay

Beautiful place. Entry fees are kinda up there, but plan your whole day to stay and it will be worth it.

Melissa Pavlacky

As much as I love the lake, I worked there this past season, and it's a wonderful place to work, i was laid off righ after labor day, due to the patk slowing down, but I was asked to be there next season also.. but I don't think it's fair for them to ask me to leave employee hill, especially asking me to come back next season.
