What Guests Are Saying
Granite Flat campground is praised for its beautiful location near the Truckee River, clean facilities, and friendly camp hosts, making it a popular choice for annual visits. Many campers appreciate the easy access to outdoor activities like biking and floating, and the well-maintained restrooms add to the positive experience. However, road noise from nearby Highway 89 is a common concern, particularly at night, which can detract from the overall tranquility of the site.

Noisy due to the proximity of the highway. The bathrooms are pretty smelly. Otherwise it's beautiful and clean, running water and the river right there.

Gracious camp host. Pit toilets didn’t stink too much, and the river was fun to play in. Truckee is really close by.

The location is close to Truckee and Tahoe and I80. The traffic noise of the campground is not for everyone. I found it relaxing, being that it reminded me of when I was a child sleeping near a busy road. Ear plugs and a sleep mask may help.
The Truckee river flowing next to camp is awesome. A refreshing stop after a nice day of hiking.
Bathrooms were clean and water at the spigot was cold.
The campground has plenty of rocks for those who tent camp.
Bear boxes were very spacious. Much larger than others we have used in Yellowstone, or the Yosemite area.

The camp host, Don, was super accommodating and friendly. The river front campsite was stunningly beautiful and the whole camp was very clean and tidy.
