Old Sacramento hosts an annual jazz festival, which is a huge event every year. The Yuba-Sutter area, located just outside the RV resort and in California's Central Valley, offers many festivals such as the Bok Kai, peach and prune festivals, and the Marysville Stampede Rodeo.

- JDJason DupreeNov 25, 20254.0Well, lots to be said about this campground. First, the assistant manager was very helpful with me when an entitled woman decided to remove my laundry from the machine. Thank you for your help. The staff here are great, the campground could use some TLC. Far too many potholes on the path around the lake. The laundry needs a plumber to install proper drainage so it doesn't flood. The lake itself is rather muddy, and the fish consist of Catfish, Carp, and Small mouth Bass. The park hardly had any sewer sites so be prepared to use public bathrooms or dump stations. I have stayed here 3 times and the water has been turned off for at least a day during all 3 visits which I found odd. Park has too many people on the verge of homeless staying at it, these people bouncing back and forth between the local thousand trails parks around. Like that's not what the parks were designed for and it shouldn't be allowed. Outside of that most sites are 30 amp. The grounds are fairly well kept, bathrooms are clean, overall 4 out of 5 stars.
- DMDerek McCowanNov 4, 20255.0Outstanding! It was quiet!
- DLDave LambertOct 30, 20255.0Reading other reviews, It looks like they've been trying really hard to improve the appearance of Lake Mindon campground. I was impressed with how clean and neat everything was. The common ground areas were well mowed and maintained. The miniature golf area was in excellent shape.The lodge was neat and clean and well stocked. The restroom in section A, where there is full hookups, was a little old, but clean.The restroom in section D, where there is only electric and water, was in excellent shape, including the big showers. I would have no problem using those showers or restroom. Next time I come to visit, I will stay in section D because there's a little more room between the campsites. Section A is a little tight but it's closer to all the amenities, such as the lodge, golf and boat dock.
