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.

There was no potable water at the campground; something I was not notified about until the day after arrival. There was no campground manager; a manager from another site was not only overseeing his own campground, but also Granite Flat and one or two other sites. He was understandably overwhelmed. Campsites had not been flagged as reserved for the four days preceding my visit. Again, the acting manager was NOT to blame.

Great campground right on Truckee River. We had spot 60 which was near south end of campground. Lots of space between sites and near lots of trails. Saw a bear across the river on our first day there.

Everything was good. Only issue was there was no potable water which we were a little disappointed with. Thought maybe that would be something we could be warned about in advance.

I loved the site I was in,just steps from the river ,our group comes to Granite flats every year , for at least the last 15 years (that says a lot) we float the river and bike , play games and listen to music.
Oh and the bathrooms are always clean (but please remember to put the lid down when you are done !it really dose keep the smell from coming out into the room.
