Amazing campsite with amazing views. The only problem was the airport, when we were visiting around 1-3 am we heard airplanes taking off. We were really surprised not to hear the highway, but it was relatively quiet. The overall campsite was really nice, you are spaced away from everyone and it is really quiet. The lake is also phenomenal, as we were fishing, which was unsuccessful , we saw a hawk dive into the lake. Overall this campsite was awesome, definitely plan on returning, and defiantly recommend.

I am a return visitor & really like this campground, but It was very, very hot! I ended up driving down to the Truckee Regional Park & parked as close to the river as I could until evening. My campsite happened to have zero shade in the afternoon & little Martis Lake, near there, has no trees by the beaches. I took my big, black dog there anyway to let him cool off, but I won't ever reserve a campsite there again- that doesn’t have shade when it’s so incredibly hot.

I loved this place. Beautiful setting in the pines. Small lake nearby. Beware though, it's close to the area's regional airport. There will be some jet and prop airplane noise. I'm a professional pilot, so it was music to my ears but, you may not feel the same way.

Our biggest concern and complaint would be lack of Camp Host cleaning and restocking bathroom. Luckily we had our own toilet paper, but it was never restocked while we were there a week. We think the host needs to do a better job in cleaning bathrooms. Loved our site and the jets that came over the valley. Truckee airport is close by.

No big complaints. I really liked that the all of the camp sites had trails to the bathroom which makes it easy to find at night. The sites were pretty clean and maintained. I would stay there again.
