Good place to stay, noisy road nearby.

What is upsetting is the number of reserved sites that sat EMPTY all night. This reservation system is broken. You need to require reservations reconfirm when they get your reminder 2 days prior to coming. If they don’t cancel them and make the site a FF! Fix this system!!!

Only minus one star for highway noise, otherwise excellent. I recommend this campground if you are in the Truckee area. The bathrooms, a toilet only, (no shower) were clean. The camp host was friendly. This is a tent or small camper friendly campground, so we did not hear any generators! The location is awesome, near Truckee and Tahoe City. My wife and I walked down to the river in the evening, nice! The highway noise is all night long, but not extreme. But you will notice it. I would stay here again. We were in site #5, which had a perfect amount of shade.

It is a very long walk from the parking area to this walk in site. The water at the campground was terrible even after filtering. I filled my water each day at the pickle ball courts at the entrance to Palisades/Olympic valley. Quite a bit of highway noise.

Great campground host. The site is large and very clean. Very clean restrooms.
