Although this is in a beautiful location, this campground is not designed for vehicles pulling trailers. Road is narrow and Loop A and B are practically impossible to maneuver.

It is close to 89, but the traffic noise isn’t terrible. I mean it’s car camping, not backcountry. Its a great spot to chill for the weekend and close to a lot of trails 🤙🏼

This campsite is well maintained and the campsite hist makes sure to check that each person that arrives has a reservation. There are bear-proof storage boxes with lots of room for overnight food storage. The pit toilets don’t smell too bad. Only downside is that the campsite is near the road, which has traffic all through the night and it’s quite loud.

Great time at Silver creek!
Lots of shade and dipping in the trukee made for a very comfortable time. There’s only one water faucet for drinking but we didn’t care for the way it tasted. So I recommend bringing h2o.
