Good to help you choose your water

This is another good book from Tom Sienstra. Helpful to pair this one with the California campground book and choose what water we want to visit and camp near. The one I got was a couple of years old so look to get the most recent edition and you should be all set.

California Recreational Lakes and Rivers

I purchased this book to learn more about where to camp with my rowboat. WOW! Tom Stienstra really had the info I wanted. I think this guy has explored every creek in the state to do this reference book. The book is well organized and reliable (I have it with me always when camping now). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone with a any trailerable boat (or hiker that likes water).

Wonderful resource

I've used this book to research and plan a number of trips. Overall it's an absolutely wonderful resource - an exhaustive list of California waterways, detailed narratives about each place, descriptions of amenities, what is allowed and isn't allowed (powerboats, jet skis, etc), good directions, and so on. I've recommended it to a number of friends and have had nothing but positive feedback. If you're looking for a good reference book on California's lakes and rivers, have no fear, this is your book.
