Beautiful setting. Campsites are nicely spaced apart and Richard the camp host was friendly and helpful. Campground was clean and well kept. Verizon access available.

Access to the reservoir is not immediate in the campground. You need to walk/drive down a dirt road that’s definitely 4 wheel drive only or drive down to the boat launch or access via the Lakeside campground.

It cools down nicely at night so you sleep well. Easy and quick access to Truckee and Lake Tahoe. Reservoir was great to kayak in. The shore is pretty mucky so not great for swimming.

I’d consider it a great base camp for activities in the area but not a destination campground.

Review for the National Park campground (not the resort which was gross!). We absolutely loved our stay at this campground. The hosts were helpful and friendly. We stayed in spot 11 and thought it was one of the best spots there, on the lake and bathroom right next to it with lots of room for the 30 foot trailer and kids. Great fishing dock, great swimming area and floating dock, the lake was peaceful and the loons so beautiful to listen to. Boats are restricted to slow speeds so it keeps it quiet and safe. Perfect lake for kayaking. Wildlife abounds and there are so many roads around to explore the surrounding area. Be sure to visit the rope swing at Beaver Lake!
