Plumas National Forest anchors the northern Sierra Nevada well above the crowds of Tahoe and Yosemite, and Little Bear RV Park sits in that corridor near campsites near Blairsden-Graeagle, running from mid-April through late October. The park fronts the Feather River, and a swimming hole is within walking distance of the sites. Railroad tracks run alongside the property, and reviewers note trains pass through in the early hours, so light sleepers should plan accordingly.
The campground provides full hookups (electric, water, and sewer) for RVs up to 50 feet, along with partial hookup sites and small cabins. Reviewers consistently describe the grounds as clean and well-maintained. Short-term sites are grouped in the center of the park, while the perimeter holds longer-term residents. A dog area is available, though it is not enclosed. Bikes can be ridden safely within the park and on the low-traffic road outside.
Day trips fill out easily from this base. Jamison Creek Dispersed -- Plumas NF (NFR 23N37) gives a sense of the dispersed camping options in the surrounding forest. Plumas Eureka State Park has hikes accessible to families with young children. Alpine lakes, including Gold Lake and Upper Sardine Lake, are reachable within roughly 20 to 30 minutes by car. Nathaniel S. sums up the draw concisely: "I didn't miss the crowds."
Little Bear works well for RV travelers wanting full hookups and a river-adjacent base for exploring the Plumas region, particularly families and those who prefer a maintained park setting over dispersed camping.
