Stayed here for two nights. Camp sites and bathrooms were very clean. The Truckee River was right next to our sites which made it awesome to take a walk with the kids down the river. Only downside I'd say was the HWY being a bit too close which meant car noise. Other than that, it was an overall great experience.

Clean bathrooms, water available. Close to activities. Site 4 would ideal (not a pull through) for noise and privacy

Very convenient location and clean campsite. The road noise was bothersome most of the night.

The campground is a bit worn down, but everything works fine. We would have loved to go tubing on the river Truckee had we known about this before arriving. It looked like so much fun - even for the small kiddos.

We spent the day at Commons Beach in Tahoe city. Such a magical little spot in the middle of the city.

Campground is right on a busy highway. The loop roads were narrow and had big boulders fronting the road. There was little room to park and we had difficulty getting our small camper in the designated spot. We ended up leaving a day early wouldn’t stay there again.

A perfect site close enough to hear the river at night and far enough from the road. Awesome spot!

Dave and Kandi helped us successfully enjoy our campout with a big group of friends. They handled the arrivals and site allocations perfectly. Couldn't have asked for me. Great experience all the way.
