Bear! If this doesn't bother you, great. What might are all the group campers piled into 1 campsite. I think there are 200 spots at this campground and it's huge. If you want to stay at the campground, a bike is a fun option, so are dog walks. The facilities are fine and functioning, campsites clean. The pine trees are amazing and the sound of the wind blowing through them is haunting, in a cool way. Camp hosts are friendly and well travelled - chat them up! Road driving in from hwy is worn and bumpy. If only more government funds could be spend on campground maintenance! Tahoe is very, very, very crowded over the summer. It's a bit much for me. I'll be checking things out again off season, and when the bears are catching their Zzzzzzzzz.

Be bear knowledgeable. The bears sniffed around our campground about 3 or 4 times, but weren't interested in humans. The bears only wanted whatever food we may have left on the picnic table or if there was food in our gear.

Services/ campground were clean and well maintained as expected. All workers/ hosts were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Love this campground. One host was a bit feisty.

fantastic camp. plenty of bathrooms--very clean. spaces are far enough apart for privacy, but close enough to know you are not alone. we had our dogs and 2 kids. super nice short walk to the lake, and also not very far from civilization. the best of both worlds! definitely would come back again. $36/night for dry camping is reasonable. we stayed in a 24ft class C. can't wait to make more memories.

It was awesome less mountain bikers.There was a party and it was still going on pass 10pm and the host did not even check on them.otherwise i like it.
Also the check in rangers are not really nice people kinda rude.!!!

Been camping here over 50 years. We can enjoy Fallen Leaf Lake, Tahoe, and all the activities the area has to offer.

Amazing campsite, friendly hosts, and clean bathrooms! The location is also great - tucked away so you are out in nature, but just about a 5 minute drive from Camp Richardson and only a 15 minute drive from Heavenly Village. We loved it!! We will definitely be coming back here!

We will return!
