Bass Lake

Bass Lake is a 3,376-foot elevation lake, owned and operated by PG&E. If you don't own your own boat, rentals are available at all three resorts located on Bass Lake. Lodging, dining, shopping, markets and more are also available. Water skiers and wake boarders will enjoy the 80 degrees water. The tall Pines provide great shade on those hot days.

On the Forth of July, Bass Lake is THE place to be. The water is warm, spirits are high and the firework display is always breathtaking.

Bass Lake is just 8 miles from Oakhurst. Just travel north of town on 41 and turn right at the Bass Lake Turnoff - Road 222. You can't miss it! There is a boat launch ramp located near the damn and another can be found at the Pines Resort on the other side of the lake.

Make sure you register your boat with the Sheriffs Tower located on the island in the middle of the lake. See our Bass Lake page for more information.
