Camp sites were trash free, enjoyable. Camp host(s) was very sweet and welcoming. Would come back.

Beautiful campsite

This is a lovely campground in a secluded part of Tahoe National Forest (the road out to French Meadows is a twisty and narrow cliff road, all paved but crumbling in some areas, and far from the nearest town). We were lucky that the reservoir was filled to the brim when we visited; easy access to it by crossing the street. The campground declared no potable water during our visit, so may need to bring either a filter or your own water; however, we were pleasantly surprised to find a flush toilet and running sinks in some bathrooms (no soap), and running spigots. Nice space between most campsites. Never saw any campground hosts but had no need to. Lots of wood and debris lying around for firewood, can be useful to bring an ax. Campsites have fire pits, a table, and bear storage. Plenty of mosquitos and ants in early June.

No Water !!! Restrooms locked up, one vault toilet in West loop of Lewis Campground. No toilet paper in vault, ran out every day due to use. Our group had several sites, made for alot of inconvience. You should refund me for the sites used. Thanks

It's a wild place I feel like just like everything else, it's being overused and people aren't respecting the Earth as well as they could be when visiting places like this. I'll never understand how so many can be out somewhere but so beautiful and decided to leave their trash and their s*** everywhere!

It’s important to note that this campground is very remote. It’s about an hour and a half to the closest town and cell phone signal. The campground is fairly well maintained but there is no overnight camp host, just daily service on the trash cans and bathrooms. Unfortunately some people did not clean up their site well after they left and there’s no staff to help with that. It’s a little spooky at night especially midweek. There is swimming across the street though!

The bathrooms with flushing toilets were locked down our entire stay (6 days). There was no host at the camp ground so there was no one to enforce any rules. People played their music and left their car running all night long with their headlights on. We loved this campsite last year but it was a totally different experience this year.

The campsites are pretty small. We have an 8 person tent and it was a squeeze but we made it work! Also the reservoir was so nice and clean!

The campground was great and secluded. Would definitely return. If you aren't extremely comfortable with your trailer in tight spaces this isnt the campground for you.
