I have been going to the East Meadows campground for over twenty years. The water has been off numerous times during those years and portable toilets were always brought in. We knew the water was going to be off and were prepared for it. The camp host was great and could do nothing about the lack of toilets. There was one full, stinky vault toilet for the entire campground to use for the six days during my stay. The Forest service cleaning crew did a horrible job of cleaning and would not contact their supervisor even when I offered use of my satellite phone. I contacted the Forest service in Sierra City on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday to make the aware of the situation. I believe I spoke with a person named Scott who sounded concerned but said his boss was on vacation. I even called the Health department as people were lined up to use the one available bathroom. Unbelievable on this day and age that nothing was done and campers were literally using the woods to go relive themselves as the smell was intolerable in the one bathroom. Really as sad situation especially when the Forest service was well aware of the problem and did nothing until portable toilets were finally delivered on Saturday the the 10th of August, They let over 70 people use one disgusting tpi let for at least the six days I was there. No excuse for the way we were treated . Of course I dont expect any reimbursement From an agency as irresponsible as the local Forest service.

We reserved campsites to find out the water was shut off, only one restroom was open for the whole complex, no camp host to even speak with, and to top it off our planned week camping at that campground(according to the website) was on FF or first come first served basis! But, NID or Nevada Irrigation District, posted on a white piece of paper that the gates were being closed on Monday October 10, 2022 at 12 noon! I find this disappointing that no more than 1/4 mile away is Pass Creek campground with full services except a camp host. I am perplexed at the misinformation given to campers and the frustration felt by all campers that we encountered. I would hope that I would get a response personally back on this review, but I am not holding my breath.
