About
Grays Peak Group Campground is located 45 miles outside San Bernardino at an elevation of 7,132 feet in the San Bernardino National Forest. The site is set within a mixed conifer forest with a grassy understory, providing ample shade from mature trees while still offering open meadow areas. The single group site accommodates up to 40 people and a maximum of 8 vehicles. The campground provides access to several hiking and mountain biking trails. The Grays Peak Trail is a 3.4-mile route that connects to Hanna Flat Campground, starting with steep climbing before transitioning to a gradual incline. The Butler Peak Fire Lookout is a short 1-mile hike or bike from camp. Big Bear Lake is nearby for fishing and boating, with catches including trout, bluegill, crappie, catfish, and largemouth bass. Amenities include picnic tables, a barbecue grill, and a group fire ring. Vault toilets are available, but there is no potable water or trash service. Campers must bring their own water and pack out all trash. Reservations are made through Recreation.gov.
