The campground was nice, very close to Tahoe City.
The restrooms were clean and water was good quality.
The personnel was very kind.
There is no private dump station for RVs, but you can dump at the only public dump station paying $10.
The only minor limitation is that some spots are not very well oriented, we had our RV that could not face the table and had to carry our food in and out from the RV continuously.

This campsite is a great place to camp for a night or two. Kid friendly campgrounds. No showers but flushing toilets and running water. Will stay here always when I need a place when I go paddle boarding.
