Quite little spot.

Found this spot late in the day. Nice spot for a quick overnighter.

I loved this campground. It was perfect weather and we hiked to the town of Markleeville which is the cutest town ever! The camp host was super nice and a beautiful stream runs next to some spots. There is a dirt road to get there and it’s a bit steep but loved the area!

Convenient small campground

Close to Markleeville and convenient to pop over to the town and pick up things from the general store. The campground is small and it’s more of a “passing through” spot. Water facilities for each site and put toilets available. Bear lockers and fire pits provided. Fire wood is sold by the camp host $7 for a bundle of 3 for $18.

The creek is right behind the campground. Some good fishing in the deeper holes. Caught 5 small rainbows during our stay.
