No shade, no water, lots of dust, no flat space for a tent, no host at the campground. Next to the busy road, steep climb up from the parking lot. Decided not to stay for the night. I can't believe they sell it.

As always, Love Kaspian Campgrounds. Close to lake, clean, and quiet.
Host does good job on daily cleaning of facilities.
City trash didn't come by so the garbage bin was overflowing

Great campground!!!! My wife and I come here every year for our anniversary. It’s a very short walk to the shore, far away from the crowds, and with only ten sites it never feels like a camptopia experience. There are no rv hookups so there’s never any generator noise. This year our camp hosts Michelle and Rick were absolute gems and we are hoping to see them again! 2 things to keep in mind though: First, there are bears. They are smart SOBs too. Don’t be stupid. Never, ever leave your food or trash out! This includes coolers and even toothpaste. If you let your guard down for even five minutes, they will come, you’ll be upset, and they will keep coming back to YOUR camp. If this makes you uncomfortable, maybe look for a different campground. Second, if you book any site except 1,2, or 3 you are going to have a steep walk uphill to get to your site and if you aren’t in great shape or aren’t used to the thin air you’ll be cursing the stairway in no time. Try to bring the bare minimum. For me personally, these two things are what I like about Kaspian, but for others it might be something to consider. Ps The star gazing in the parking lot at nighttime is unreal.

I stayed at Site 8 for two nights. It was a great experience. It was a small walk to my site from the parking lot but it was up a set of stairs and straight uphill. The bathrooms were immaculately clean! It was a great getaway stay at Tahoe!
