The campground is well situated and very clean. Each campsite is unique with plenty of space. The bathrooms were the cleanest of any campground we have been to !

lovely campground! Very clean vault toilets, level parking, concrete picnic area with fire pit, bbq, table, bear box and a 'counter' stand. the tent area was obvious, level and covered in sand (a good thing). I hope to return some day.

Nice cement pad for campsite. Was difficult to get reservations. Reserved signs throughout the campground on all the camp sites, yet only about 20 percent of us showed up to camp. Which made it nice for us. A big 5th wheel had a generator running all day, allowed, but if you need to escape noise pollution, not the best place. The meadows and trails were breathtaking beautiful, and high elevation, though makes hiking a little harder, made for a very cool night.

This is a fabulous RV/tent camp. The spaces are far apart and the camp is kept very clean. You can't find a better host than Mark. The location is perfect between Incline Village and Reno.

Beautiful, clean, comfortable and friendly high-altitude campground. Superb trails for all levels of hikers can be reached from Mt Rose Campground. Very convenient location for attending the Shakespeare play at Sand Harbor

Gorgeous campground, very clean and well designed. Plenty of space between sites. We really enjoyed our double site, with no neighbors behind us.

Gorgeous campground. Close to many great liking locations. Due to the elevation, it's much cooler than the Sacramento Valley and substantially cooler than other locations in the Sierra. The host was conscientious and helpful.
