Granite Flat (California)

Granite Flat was a pleasant experience. We camped in our trailer. This is dry camping, so come prepared with water, and solar or a generator. You can dump your RV sewage down the highway at a nearby fuel station.

The camp ground sites are fairly smallish, my family member reserved the site next door (#4) and the sites spot for a tent wasn’t level nor big enough to accommodate their tent. It had to go on our site. Pay close attention to photos.

Located on the Truckee River, the sound of the river is soothing. We watched a beaver build up his small dam. Little chipmunks scurry about.

Campground has water spigots and vault toilets for ammenities.

Campsite was clean as were pit toilets. Lots of road noise from HWY 89 up until midnight and starting again at about 5. Not much privacy between sites but fellow campers were generally pretty considerate.

The kids love the river. It would’ve been nice to have flush toilets, but other than that, it was great our favorite.

Very beautiful here and campsites are right on the river.

The space was very close to the road. A nice Forest Service employee advised me on how to parallel park for safety along the campsite.

The camp host was not the most friendly. As a woman camping alone, I felt that he was very abrupt when asking for my 'documents' to prove that I was registered for the space. I had the documents printed, which he should have had from the computer system. If I had not had copies I feel that he would have escalated the situation. I think I was treated rudely by that person due to the 'causes' that I support which were on a sign in the rear of my vehicle's window. He made me feel unsafe.

Some loud campers next to me that were loud till after midnight two nights in a row.

We had site 60 two nights and again the next week for one night but moved next door for a second night. Enjoyed the river view and just relaxing and having a camp fire.
