Washoe Lake was a fun little surprise that we found at the spur of the moment.
We do not plan a bunch. We just drive for a little while and then start looking for a place to stay. We look for free camping first, then cheaper state or national parks, and then private campgrounds are last on our list
The campground at Washoe Lake State Park had recently remodeled one of the loops to include water and electric at each site. We did not get into the water at the lake but it was a nice peaceful place to stay for a few nights. We would gladly stay here again.
