Campsite 6 is a great site. Its a little bit more private than the other sites and provides shade while still having lake views. We brought a propane campfire pit since there is a burn ban in place and we were really glad that we did. We wouldnt recommend campsite 8 as its in the middle of a loop and surrounded by other campsites and does not provide any privacy.

This is a good campground, with a few caveats. The first of which is that there is zero running water, potable or not. This makes it incredibly hard on tent campers (like myself), and RV campers who don't want to haul gallons of water up the mountain. Hindsight is that it is 2024, we have cell service and truckee is 10 minutes away, and this campground and surrounding campgrounds should have flush toilets and potable water available. Building on that the road is in terrible condition with multiple potholes and speedbumps (even though the potholes are so big that they act as speed bumps). It may be time to close down a little early in the season to give this campground some much needed upgrades. Finally, tent campers beware that if you pick a site on the lake you will likely have little to no shade whatsoever. Adding to that campsite 8 should only really be used if you have a large group and you want to reserve the entire loop around it, this is a horrible site for solo campers and tent campers, as you are right in the middle of a loop and everyone can easily see your business.

We love this place but the no potable water situation is embarrassing. Its been three years! Fix the darn issue.

The water was very low but we had a great time.
