Alpine County operates Turtle Rock Park Campground outside Markleeville, a small Sierra Nevada community in Alpine County, California. The campground runs from May through early October and includes separate areas for tent and RV camping. No reservations are required, making it a drive-in option for spontaneous trips. Showers are available for a small fee, so bring quarters. Toilets are distributed across the grounds. Pets are welcome, and the site is ADA accessible with cell service available. Turtle Rock Park sits nearby for campers who want to compare options in the same corridor.
