As always our stay at Alpine Meadows campground was relaxing and very enjoyable. I did rain quite a bit of the time but is to be expected in the fall. The facilities were clean and trash bin secured from wildlife and clean. You do have to make reservations and even in early October the campground was almost full.

Spots are far apart, quiet, clean, can walk to Martis Lake, or drive across to Martis Valley for a nice hike

We were so happy to have found this campground. Matt was a great host and it was a quiet and clean place for us to park out 20 foot trailer for 10 days of bliss. Dog friendly and near Martis Lake, Truckee Legacy trail, Lake Tahoe, Donner Lake. Great location for us!! We biked and hiked and enjoyed a walk on the Lake Tahoe path just a short trip away. We’ll come back here whenever we can. It was wonderful.
