This is a great campground as long as you don't mind the noise from the road / train tracks. It's in a great spot for getting to tons of trailheads, and there are plenty of nice trails to walk right from the campground. There are also several spots for swimming within a 2 minute walk of your campsite!

Way too close to the freeway. Who thought this was a good location for a camp grounds? I thought other reviews were exaggerating. The grounds are literal 50 yards from the I80 For our entire two day stay my partner and I had to speak at a 8/10 on the volume scale just to hear each other for the entire trip, day and night. Also the train passes every two hours and sounds it's horn each time it passes the camp grounds, even at midnight, 2am and 4am. If you are looking for a camping spot where you feel like you are camping under the I5 in Sacramento this is your spot. It is also right across the street from an OHV area, so in those rare moments where you can't hear the I80 you hear quads and razors. The grounds are well maintained though.
