Great place, nice facilities. The winding road you take to get there can make your passengers motion sick so habe your party take some dramamine if they are prone to motion sickness prior to making the drive.

There was a terrible wind storm during the winter and dozens of trees are knocked down. Last year, the forest service cleared brush and cut down trees so the campgrounds are very open. Also, this year the water level in the reservoir is the lowest I have seen in 20 years of going. I will not be back for another 5 years in hopes things will grow back.

We love going to French Meadows. The campgrounds are clean and well kept. We took a day and explored Granite Chief Wilderness, a must see if you go to French Meadows.

French Meadows is our number one place for camping. Great place to get away for the weekend or weekdays. Places to hike, fish and enjoy nature.
