GuideWyandotte Campground on Little Grass Valley Reservoir
This campground is located on Little Grass Valley Reservoir near La Porte, CA. It is one of many campgrounds along the reservoir that includes a boat launch, dump station, fish cleaning station, bathrooms with flush toilets, and a beach for swimming in the reservoir. Campsites include a table, fire pit, grill, and paved drives that can accommodate long trailers or RV's. The sites are not on the water, but just a short walk away.
The nearby town of La Porte has a general store where you can purchase firewood, food, and other forgotten essentials. There is no cell service in the area, but the general store also has a pay phone for use.
During my trip, half of the sites were closed due to nesting Bald Eagles. Despite the closure, there was plenty of site availability. However, reservations can be made online.
