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.

Wonderful Campground that is very easy to find. The route within is easy to navigate through even with an RV. Alongside the Truckee river makes a great way to spend the day in. Truckee downtown seemed like a 5 minute ebike ride to get to. Clean Campground. Will definitely use again

The reservation process was a bit strange with fully booked sites one minute and then all of a sudden more sites and dates were available. Everything was great except for the smoke coming in from another site and a couple of sites nearby had about 3-4 tents per site; this became quite a little city of people. Despite my negative comments, I would definitely go back.

I’ve been here many times. It’s one of my favorite campgrounds. The vault toilets are always clean and the staff are always helpful and friendly. It’s a great campground with lots of access to enjoy the Truckee River.

We loved that the location was close to downtown Truckee and north Lake Tahoe. The camp host was great and accommodating!

Granite Flat is a nice getaway! The staff there are friendly and professional. There is freeway noise, but it sings the same whooshing noise as the beautiful Truckee River and gets lost in the sound of it's waters going over its rocks.
The park and campsites were kept clean as well as the bathrooms!
A big shout out to Roos, the camp maintenance and manager. Roos was so kind and welcoming. Always happy to talk with the guest laugh with them and answer questions. She gives that campground a lot of value in that she brings the "real human," touch. she is an asset to her profession.
I am returning to the Granite Flat Camp grounds soon!

Camp Host "Roos" was very professional and pleasant. She worked hard and had a smile on her face. She kept the place spotless. Will definitely stay there again.

Great site on the Truckee River. Some noise from the freeway, but overall an amazing site. Loved the cleanliness, space, and closeness to town. Water taps and bathrooms were in good proximity as well.

All the camp host were awesome. Bathrooms were always stocked and clean. A big group 40+ people have been coming up here for years. Ruze & Shelly and thier hubbies were all very friendly and courteous.
Way better than last few years, after gov cuts.

Sorry, but this was a terrible experience. Our neighboring campers had a generator that they left on until two in the morning and kept us up all night long another group just up from us where there was like three campsites together or extremely loud playing music until 2 o’clock in the morning kids screaming and yelling running back-and-forth all night long. It was exhausting. We ended up leaving the next day. We did complain to the host and the host took immediate action, but the campers did not comply.
