Oct 25-29 2012: Lake Casitas 11th Rally

Oct 25-29, 2012 Lake Casitas Rally. 11th Annual Rally.

Reserve your space ASAP on/or after April 30 .. BASS Campground.

Lake Casita... Ojai, California

Hi Everyone

It's time to think about reserving for the Lake Casitas Rally. This will be our 11th year to be at the lake.

Jim and I are reserved in space BASS 14 ..

Last year we had 52 trailers ... please make your reservations early so you won't miss out on your favorite space. We usually end up with a waiting list.

Rally dates: Check in Oct 25 - check out 29. Jim and I will be at Lake Casitas (5 nights) from October 25 (Thursday) - checking out Tuesday October 30 (Tuesday). Come early or stay later, like Jim and I, to spend more time at the lake.

Lake Casitas Reservations (805) 649-1122

Please post: nights you reserved, space number, pet(s) names, trailer.

Remember there is a $3.00 pet fee per night for each pet.. (I know this is bad but our pets are worth it.) We will have the pet parade on Saturday.

A non-refundable reservation fee in the amount of $7.50 is charged for each reservation. However, cancellations or modifications may be made in person, through the mail or over the phone up to 72 hours prior to your scheduled arrival date at a charge of $5.00 per site, per reservation.

You can now reserve on-line..
http://reservations.casitaswater.org/

OR

By Phone... Like always, they have one phone .. when you call to make your reservation, keep dialing until the message comes on and hold on ..it usually takes awhile...

Cancellations not made prior to the 72-hour period will be subject to forfeiture of some or all camping fees, depending on the date of cancellation. Without prior cancellation the entire camping fees paid will be forfeited.

Check in time is 2:00 p.m. Check out time is 12 noon. You may be able to occupy the campsite early if it is vacant.

======================
Prices for camping at Lake Casitas.

Here is what I found listed on the website.

Reservation Fee (non-refundable) $7.50
Cancel or Change a reservation $5.00

Basic Sites (No water No Electric) $25.00/night ( Sat/Sun Holidays $30/night - this might be just during the summer)

Basic Hookup (Electric and Water) $35.00/night (Sat/Sun Holidays $40/night - this might be just during the summer)
(includes Tow vehicle and Trailer)

Extra vehicle $12.00/night " " $17/night

Camping Reservations and Fees | Lake Casitas Recreation Area

==========================

Jim Johnson will be sending an email out to everyone that attended last year and those that have contacted us since then. Please make your reservations ASAP on/or after April 30. Please respond to Jim's email as soon as your reservations are made. Thanks to everyone for helping to keep things simple for this rally.


We hope to see you all there.
Carol and Jim

Monday April 30, 2012 Time to Reserve

Hi Everyone

Just a reminder ...

Tomorrow, Monday April 30.. is the first day that you can reserve for the Lake Casitas Rally.

Be sure to ask for BASS campground.. October 25 to October 29 are the rally dates.

Jim and I will be there starting the 25th - checking out the 30th. (5 nights).

I have tried using their on-line reservation system, and haven't had any luck.. Maybe it's working now, if not, please phone the campground, ASAP. Lake Casitas Reservations (805) 649-1122

Reserve for fun at Lake Casitas in October.

Carol and Jim

Just used online system. It's a bit finicky... It already had my email when I tried to sign up to log in but wouldn't let me get a password for that email even though it said I could do that. So I used an alternative email and signed up for a whole new log in and that worked well.

So we are in B7 again this year.

Hi Gisela and Bill

Welcome again to our rally. It's our 11th - can you believe?

I'm happy to see that you were able to use on-line reservations. I know they were working on it.

Hi,
I am considering joining your get together this year. Not being familiar with the area, could someone please tell me which hook up sites are closest to the lake? Also, how is the weather that late in the year?
Thanks,
Alice

Lake Casitas

Hi Alice

We hope you do join us for the rally at Lake Casitas. I will try to give you a little info.

Bass campground is not right on the lake - Some of the sites might look down over the lake.. we haven't stayed on that side, but I believe sites around 12 to 24 all have hookups (water and electric only). Some of these sites are on the opposite side of the road ... they are 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 17, and 20 (not on lake view side).

From 25 to 30 I believe it's basic camping.. no hookups.

It's best to go online and look at the map of Bass and you can also click on each site to see. As far as I'm seeing, none of the campsites with hookups see a lot of the lake. (If anyone knows - please post.)

I hope I haven't confused you, but when we camp at the lake in BASS.. it's a drive down to the lake (not far)... Bass is a campground with a large grass area and best for our group rally.

I hope others that know, will post here.

NOW when we talk about weather. We have had the rally at Lake Casitas for 10 years - this will be 11. Out of those years, we've had rain a couple of times, sometimes hot and it's shorts weather and ..cold at night. California is really pretty good during the time we have the rally. However, it is totally out of our hands. Prepare with both warm and cold clothes...

Thank you for the info, I'll have to check the mileage and calculate how long it will take to get there and back from S. UT. Pulling a trailer slows down my time considerably and makes for long driving days.

Ok, I took the plunge. Will be arriving on 10/26 for 3 nights in B19. I noticed the site is reserved for Nov & Dec so, maybe someone is familiar with the site and feels it is a good one to stay there for 2 months. Looking forward to the gathering.
