What Guests Are Saying
Fir Top Campground offers a serene and picturesque setting, surrounded by beautiful lakes and the Sierra mountains, making it a peaceful retreat. Visitors appreciate the quiet atmosphere and small campground size, though some challenges include difficult access for larger trailers and a notable mosquito presence. Additionally, water access was reported to be turned off during some visits, and GPS directions may lead to unpaved roads that require 4-wheel drive.

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.

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 miles short because of the 11 miles 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 miles of unpaved road at the end, but it was OK.

Love this campground but it was the second year in a row where not all of the bathroom facilities were working.

The campsite was nice. This site is the only one with a flushing toilet from what I saw. The lake is not too far. The lake was beautiful. There is plenty of shade, but I’d recommend a canopy for a nice nap.
It got very cold. Take thermal cloths to put under your PJs. All in all it was a great spot.
The Road is not bad.
I took 80 from Sacramento to truckee. I got on hwy 89 in truckee, then a left onto Jackson meadows Road that turned into Dog Valley Rd. I took a left on GraniteValley Rd, a rocky dirt road. It was the only “rough” patch my entire trip and it’s not very long of a drive either. Maintained nicely.
I drove a Subaru Crosstrek for reference.
No problems.

Water availability and facilities were great. No cell service for T Mobile for many miles. Plan accordingly.

Absolutely wonderful. Such a beautiful site and they were spread out enough to enjoy. There are a few other campgrounds in this area but they are spread out as well. The lake was an amazing adventure too. Great bathrooms, good water. Shade is available and the amenities were maintained well.
