Fir Top Campground

We got campsite #5 and although it was big, the dining/bench area was on a little hill and wasn’t flat. It was difficult for my toddler to climb up and down. Beautiful Location, we go every year but def avoiding this campsite next year.

The quiet and the beauty of this campground is remarkable. The camp host was very knowledgeable and friendly and checked in on us often. Taking 80 to 89 and driving two miles in on unpaved road saved us a huge hassle; and I appreciate the previous camper that posted this. I loved my stay at the campground; and the only negative is that there is a one stall bathroom for men and women for the whole campground; so I think it would be wise to bring a roll of toilet paper and a shovel if you decide to camp here.

All of the campers around us were quiet and respectful and it was a great escape from the usual Tahoe crowd.

I was there midweek and had the entire campground to myself. I chose this campground for it's relative remoteness yet easy access, only the very last few miles were on unpaved road. Beautiful setting and only a short walk to the water. The bathrooms were clean and the campsites are well maintained.

I noticed most of the sites were reserved for the weekend so if you are looking for peace and solitude midweek is your best bet. I will definitely return.

Beautiful area but the campsites are almost on top of each other. It was loud every night with people yelling late into the night from the beach area of the reservoir nearby. Hard to sleep. I do not plan on going back.

Very quite place. But keep in mind, the tent ground or the camping spots are not leveled. We camped during july 4th weekend and ran out of toilet paper, there were staff members/officers patrolling the area everyday but no one cleaned nor filled in the toilet paper despite being such a busy weekend. Only 1 male and 1 female toilet (both flush) for 12 campground. Rediculous.

We have a larger trailer and the spot we had was challenging to back into with the curbing. Overall the park was quiet and enjoyable.

Great place!!! Nice and quiet. Beautiful scenery. Only negative thing was that the water was turned off

Beautiful and peaceful place

Good things:
Gorgeous location with beautiful lake and sierra mountains in the background. Small campgrounds make the place very quiet.

Bad things:
Mosquitoes...Mosquitoes ...Mosquitoes ... A lot of them. We had horrible time dealing with the mosquitoes.
Road - GPS took us through highway 20 and 18. But we had to stop at 11 mi short because of the 11 mi unpaved road. Only 4-wheel drives can make it. We had to come back all the way to I80 and take 89 at Truckee. Even that had 2 mi of unpaved road at the end, but it was OK.

We had a great time. It rained on us a little guess still fun.
