Description

California, Barrett Cove Recreation Area on Lake McClure.  

Comment

Barrett Cove Recreation Area has 200 RV and tent camp spots on Lake McClure.  Barrett Cove Marina has boat slips and a launch ramp.  Barrett Cove is the largest of the recreation areas, with more than 200 choice campsites. With many shade trees and amenities including full hookups.  However, most sites do not have RV hookups.  The campground is just a short distance away from Exchequer Bike Park.  Barrett Cove makes for a memorable getaway surrounded by California’s natural beauty. 

Whether you enjoy fishing, swimming, hiking, or just relaxing under a tree, there’s no shortage of good times to be had at Barrett Cove.  The camp spots consist of many different sizes.  Some sites can only accommodate one car while others may fit a large 35 foot RV.  Also, not all sites are level.  Campground roads were paved while camp sites were crushed rock.  Most sites had plenty of oak tree shade.  

Most of the camp sites are not on the water so beaching your boat overnight is not a good option.  Most boaters haul out or get a slip at the marina.  Be careful when boating, water levels fluctuate and submerged objects may not be visable.  Also watch for floating debres.
