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.

Large campground that sprawls along the highway. No site is further than 400ft from the road, so it's quite loud. The walk-in sites at the eastern side are right along the river and away from other campers, so not too bad. Highly recommend earplugs.

A campground in really beautiful canyon, with a river on one side and a very noisy highway on the other. The highway noise seemed to be reflected by the canyon walls. The traffic was loud all night, although less after 11 p.m. The noise really ramped up again around 5:30 a.m. One RV ran their generator for hours, but it really wasn't very noticeable over the cars and trucks on highway 89. We only stayed for one night and then moved to an RV park in Vacaville. The RV park was much quieter than Granite Flat, even though it was right next to Interstate 505!

We were able to spend 6 nights at Granite Flat. This was our second time visiting this site.
We love our site #31. Close to the river, it felt like we were the only ones around.
Don the camp host is awesome. We had 3 campsites that other friends stayed and the all loved the site.

This was one of the most beautiful campsites I have visited. There was a gorgeous path that led straight to the river. It was perfect for relaxing, bird watching, and wading.
The only downside is the proximity to the highway. During the day we could hear the cars from the highway, but it quieted down at night.
