Best time to visit Millerton Lake State Recreation Area State Park

The best time to visit Millerton Lake is late spring through early fall (May-October), when campgrounds are fully open and the lake is ideal for water recreation. April and October offer pleasant weather with fewer crowds, making them ideal for hiking and fishing. Summer (June-August) brings hot temperatures exceeding 90 degrees Fahrenheit but excellent conditions for swimming, boating, and water sports. Winter months are mild but most campgrounds close; only Meadows Loop and Group Camps remain open year-round for winter visitors seeking bald eagle viewing.

We rented this RV for the long weekend for our first camping trip with our 1-year-old and 5-year-old, and we had such a wonderful time! The RV was incredibly clean, new, and comfortable. We also needed the trailer to be delivered, and the entire communication and delivery process was so smooth and right on time. We really appreciate all of the help and kindness from the owner. On our way back, our car wouldn’t start when he came to pick up the trailer. He took the time to help us with our car and suggested something that actually worked and got it started! We truly appreciated him going above and beyond to help us. We would definitely book another trip with him in the future.

We had the best time using this RV while camping in Yosemite area! 10/10 recommend.

Brittany G. - Sep 2026

I truly can’t say enough about how amazing our experience was with Andrea’s travel trailer. The communication before booking was outstanding, and when we needed a couple of extra considerations they were so kind and helpful. The trailer was delivered in immaculate shape and cleanliness. Everything functioned perfectly and there were no surprises, other than the fact that the trailer was even better than expected. We wouldn’t hesitate to rent this trailer again, and anyone who rents it will be VERY happy with both the trailer and the booking experience!
