Our annual camping trip with the youngin’s led us to Scotts Flat Lake Resort. If you have a boat, the lake offers hours of fun and the water is warm!!! If you don’t have a boat, you can rent paddle boats and kayaks by the hour. The resort is definitely on our radar for fun on at a lake! 
Scotts Flat Lake Resort – June 2012
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
Location: Located in Nevada City, about an hour away from Sacramento.
Amenities: Flushing toilets and showers
Pets: Allowed for an additional charge
Pros: The resort is a perfect location if you have a boat! There are a few sites located along the water’s edge that allows you to dock your boat right at your site! The water is quite warm so you can spend many hours on a boat, in a kayak, floating, and/or swimming. The lake is also a great spot to throw a line and catch a few fish.
Cons: Campsites are quite close to each other and don’t offer any barriers in between. Although the sites along the lake are ideal if you have a boat, be prepared the sleep downhill. The bathrooms are not the best in the world. The bathroom that was closest to us was old and 2 out of the 3 stalls had missing locks. We noticed that other bathrooms had newer stalls so hopefully all of the buildings will get remodeled. The resort is located in bear country, so be mindful of leaving goodies out while you’re sleeping. Although we did not see any bears ourselves, we overheard people talking about sightings near our site. Yikes!!!
