The campground is located in a very beautiful meadow with a fantastic view of snow-clad mountains. However, the serenity was rather frequently interrupted by passing aircraft (jets, helicopters, crop-dusters) due to the proximity to the Truckee airport; it wasn't too annoying, but did hinder the sense of the wilderness - the only reason for the 4 stars. The sites are very affordable and well-maintained, potable water is close and readily available; firewood is accessible, restrooms are stocked and are as clean as a vault toilet can get. There was no soap though, so don't forget to bring your own one.

We camped 5 nights in a 29' RV, it was very pretty, quiet, and close to Truckee. I love aircraft, so being close to the airport was a plus, but some may not like the sound. The lake was low, but very pretty, and lots of trails to hike and bike.

No walking trails from campground making it necessary to drive down to lake. Could use a remake to make it more recreationally friendly.

I LOVE Alpine Meadows for several reasons! Let's start with a GREAT, FRIENDLY AND INCREDIBLE STAFF! Lori, Tom, Greg and Jessica are the BEST! I have been camping and visiting Alpine Meadows for several years and Lori, Tom, Greg and Jessica always make my trips here feel like I am at home enjoying spending time with family and friends! They greet(know me by name as well as other visitors), wave and stop by several times on every visit(at least 6 trips a year) as they are making their rounds, make sure everything is OK and my experience is enjoyable, exceeding my expectations! The camp grounds are clean, well maintained, including bathrooms, are well stocked and checked throughout the day and the view is very relaxing! I visit several camp grounds a year and this by far is my favorite largely because of the incredible staff and I will definitely continue to visit and look forward to seeing them ALL there! PLEASE let them know how much they are APPRECIATED AND VALUED! THANK YOU!
