There are many people that simply can't wait for their vacation to start so that they can get out into nature. The Shaver Lake camping grounds in Fresno County in California is a place that offers nature in abundance. It is a manmade lake and has a melancholy logging theme as the land was considerably logged while been constructed.

There is a marina in the campgrounds and they offer a large selection of water crafts from which to rent. Many like to set up camp for the day on the shores and frolic in the water. Unfortunately spending the night along the shoreline is not allowed so things will need to be packed up at the end of the day and taken back to the camping site.

For the fisherman there is a large variety of fish that can be caught. The rainbow trout, Kokannee salmon as well as catfish and bluegills are abundant. Many people come from far and wide for the fishing and it is open year round.

For those that prefer not to camp but to rent houses there are many around that will ensure comfort and privacy. The Natal Granite Retreat is a beautiful five bedroom and five bathroom house that can sleep up to twenty people at a time. It is about four thousand square feet with a spacious kitchen and pool table. It is about a forty five minute drive from the town where there are many restaurants and gift shops to browse in.

Twenty more minutes further up the road one will find the China Perak Ski Resort which is a popular place during the colder months. The mountain is about eight thousand and seven hundred feet high and offers a freestyle terrain park. This is an excellent place for beginners both skiing and snowboarders as they offer a moving carpet.

The Pacific Crest hiking trail is truly breathtaking. It is not for the unfit as it is about four thousand kilometers long over rocky terrain. Many even use this trail for horse riding. The route goes through seven national parks as well as twenty five national forests which leave many awestruck at its beauty. There is also a bicycle route that runs parallel to the hiking trail and these come together about twenty seven times along the route.

Many prefer to stay in cabins instead of camping and there are a variety of different places where one can spend a few days. There are hotels as well as log cabins to choose from. There are a few that are only five minutes drive from the lake. Many can sleep multiple guests at a time.

There are many different and enjoyable activities that one can do at the Shaver camping grounds. It is a place to just relax and take in the beauty that is all around. Many are too busy with life to sit back and to truly see what this planet has to offer.
