Besides the Bishop Lake Modern Campground, which has an upper loop and a lower loop of RV and tent sites with electricity to each site and water available within the loops, Brighton Recreation Area also has two rustic campgrounds, as well as an equestrian campground (also rustic) and riding stables run by Brighton Recreation Riding Stable. Also part of the complex is the facilities at Bishop Lake beach area, which we're going to visit now.

With a great path winding by the lake, you can spend your day walking or biking, have a picnic lunch enjoying the views, rent a canoe or kayak...
...or just laze out on the beach...
...or walk over to the fishing pier (designed for ADA compliance) - don't forget the sunscreen!
There are also shady oasis spots...

Pass the fishing pier and you'll come to the boat launch that can be accessed from the campground...

...via a shady trail from there with access to both the upper and lower campground.

Or drive to the campground from the entrance on Bishop Lake Road and be properly welcomed by this very cool turtle!
