Question
Hello Steve,

We are planning a small vacation to Southern California. We have found accommodations in Buena Park for a 3 day stay with our dogs. We would like to leave Buena Park and go camping and fishing as well. Somewhere on the way back to Las Vegas. Where is a good place to camp/fish that is dog friendly. We have 2 dogs, both purebred rotts that are very well behaved and friendly. We also have 2 boys.

Answer
Hi Ingrid,

Since there is a distinct lack of places along I-15, I would say the best places available are Big Bear and Silverwood Lake. They are both dog-friendly, and you can camp and fish. They aren't too far out of the way, either. At Big Bear, Serrano campground is the recognized favorite.

Have fun,

Steve
