TeleLi puLaya Campground
Opening Date for 2024 Season: Now Open
TeleLi puLaya Campground (Black Oak Flat Campground) is located 5 miles down the Beardlsey Reservoir Road from Highway 108 in the Stanislaus National Forest, about 10 miles from Pinecrest Lake. The campground with its 22 sites opened in 2014. The setting is known for its views of Stanislaus River Canyon 1,600 feet below. Glimpses of the river can be seen in the distance as well as the Dardanelles. Beautiful forest surrounds the campground, but most campers will want to drive the 5 miles down to Beardsley Reservoir for day activities. At Beardsley visitors find a designated swimming area, picnic area, boat ramp, and good fishing.
The 22 campsites at TeleLi puLaya Campground can accommodate RVs, trailers, and tents. The modern campsites are both spacious and well separated from one another. Several of the sites have nice views of the Stanislaus River canyon, others are scattered through the trees.
Two small group sites are located side by side at one end of TeleLi puLaya Campground. Each of the group sites has 3 picnic tables, several pedestal grills, and a campfire circle. Check with the Summit Ranger Station about reservations for the group sites: (209) 965-3434.
