This is such a great camping spot in Tahoe. It has access to so many amazing hikes, and it is one of the best well kept and clean campsites I have ever been to. The staff is super helpful, nice and very approachable. The campsites feel like they are hidden in the woods, and it is quiet with beautiful views. The toilets are kept clean and there is great running water.

Beautiful and well-kept campground on the summit of Mt. Rose. Cool temps were a welcome respite after our trek through the desert to get there! Took a nice hike on the interpretive loop from the campground.

Large clean site however you have to carry items up stairs to get to picnic tables, bear box and fire pit. Cell service with AT&T was very good at three bars of 5G. Very clean campground with excellent site host.

We drove down to Sand Harbor early to have a wonderful kayaking tour of beautiful Lake Tahoe. We also hiked up to Mt Rose. Exhilarating. The bathrooms and campsite were clean.

One of the cleanest campgrounds I've ever been to. Camp host is great! The only part I didn't like is how hard it is to get a site here.

We've been visiting Mt Rose Campground for nearly 15 years. (Minus the years snow pack kept it closed. ) When we first started camping there, the road and campsites were dirt. The campground was remodeled and what they did was astounding. We find the campground has become super popular and it's a challenge to get a reservation .he campground sits about 8900' in elevation which makes it a cool (figuratively and actually) place to go in the summer. When the temps in the valleys are 100 degrees. The campground peaks in the high 70's or low 80's. The campground is clean with well maintained outhouses. The campground has had the same camp host as the previous years which has a direct relationship in the cleanliness of the grounds. (Great Job Guys!) The campground is ground zero for hiking and biking in the area with Mt Rose Meadow, Mt Rose Wilderness and the TRT access. I like Rose and hope everyone will stops going there.....
