Maybe park here: Lake Minden Thousand Trails
Lake Minden RV Resort [Nicolaus, CA]
• Dog Life: They host dog shows!
During the event there was tons of fun and activities. For normal days there’s a nice-sized fenced in off-leash area. The walk around the lake itself is lovely - the RV park encircles the lake!
Aside from my noodle family, the other doggos there seemed nice enough. I was too busy hanging with cousins to make new friends though. Stay on leash when not at your site, there is wildlife, including many stray cats.
• As far as signal: workable!
Beware: Only Verizon and *only* in the “D” loop so two-way instead of FHU, though their showers are nice so it’s easy to get by. Be sure to speedtest your spot!
• Discounts: Thousand Trials park, they are the reason we joined! Though when we originally had a retail spot, learned they offer weekly rates and do also honor PA - it’s amazing what calling in can do for you.
• The Park: Showering in D loop was fine. Free hot showers, clean, and decently spacious private area to dress in your shower stall. In the same bathroom as the toilets, along the opposite wall.
Grass and gravel back-in sites both in the A (FHU) and D (two-way) loops, can’t speak for the rest of the park. Decently level in both loops, though A loop is tight and has a lot of trees to maneuver. We had to ask our neighbor to bring in the awning so we could set up, thankfully they were very nice about it.
The park has a 5mph speed limit one-way loop-road around the park (remember, the park encircles a lake) so keep that in mind when scouting for your spot.

TL;DR - reasonably priced, or members stay free. Wouldn’t go out of our way to stay here, but it wasn’t bad. Fairly easy access to Sacramento & Davis.
:: this is my friend Cutter - we love him. He lives at Allagante Silkens in OR, one of my favorite places to go visit and be with my people.
