Fallen Leaf Campground

I've been going to this campground for many years and have always had a very nice experience. Unfortunately, this past time I had to camp next to some young 20 something year old campers that were pretty inconsiderate and partied with loud talking and laughing until 1:30 am. When I found out they extended their stay another night, I had to go to the camp host and asked to be moved. The host was very gracious and understanding explaining that I was not the first to complain about those campers. He put me in an emergency site away from the campers and then talked to them reminding them of the quiet hours. My second night there was much more peaceful and quiet and I appreciate the help of the host. Overall, it's a beautiful campground, clean and usually very quiet.

Spacious campsites with plenty of bathrooms around and token operated shower.

We have been coming to Fallen Leaf Lake for years and finally camped for the first time. It was incredible with close proximity to the lake, walking distance to Camp Richardson and Lake Tahoe. Great place if you love hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, etc. The campsites are large with plenty of space from other camp sites. We're excited to come back in the fall to see the Aspen trees turn their beautiful colors.

Fallen Leaf never disappoints. This is such a beautiful campground, and this site backs up to a beautiful green meadow. The campground hosts are great, and work very hard to keep the campground clean and orderly. The camp store has everything you need from a few basic groceries, to a nice selection of souveniers. Showers are available for tokens. Token machine takes $1, $5, and $10 bills. The bears are very active, so be sure to use the bear box. Cell service is very spotty. Highly recommend this campground.

Wonderful campground. Very big but campsites are widely spaced.

Since this was off season, first week in June, there were no crowds, facilities were very clean and staff was very attentive.

Clean, roomie, has a space heater and electricity. Great place to camp if you want an easy site setup. 1 full sized bed bunked with a twin bed above and a couch that probably folds out (we kept it in couch mode. There was a table and a chair and lamp as well. Sky light was a plus for light and stars at night. Camp site was clean, restrooms clean and accessible, you’ll need to bring soap for hand washing. Water is a short walk away and drinkable. Staff was pleasant and informative. If you haven’t, then, You should. Happy Camping!

Site #36 is across from the camp hosts (or contracted staff?) and restroom facilities. There isn’t much privacy, but the site vehicle area is very big. Bear container, table, fire ring all provided. Campground has amenities and small store if you need anything. No bear sightings.

Great place, great staff !

We had such a nice time at Fallen Leaf Lake. Our campsite (#73) was great for our 36 ft Fifth Wheel. It was a large campsite with a good amount of shade. The bathrooms were close and we had a spigot next to our campsite. There were 2 bears walking around, so we just kept our distance. The lake is a short walk from this campsite. It is a great lake for kayaks and paddle boards. There are also lots of hikes near Fallen Leaf Lake. Can't wait to go back!
