Best Campgrounds near Graeagle, CA

The drive was nice once you get past the burn scar. There was no one around so it was peaceful and the weather was decent. There are just a few spots but plenty of room for trailer parking. There is a bathroom and bear box. Pack it in and out for trash.

Absolutely wonderful campsite not too far off the Highway!!! Well maintained, quiet, peaceful. Only one other person was here when we got here, got here around 9pm and had no trouble setting up a tent. Beautiful fire pits, coyotes yipping in the distance while staring into a gorgeous night sky. Couldn’t ask for a better free spot!!! :D

This was a good place to rest overnight in our travel trailer. There isn’t really anything to do here. There is trash scattered and there are a few really big ruts on one side. The pull out isn’t level if that matters to you.

We have stayed at two other parks in Reno, both were just okay, from the number of sites to the actual crowding together of the sites. 

 Gold Ranch has very wide interior roads that make navigating easy with a toad. Sites are arranged nicely with a decent distance in-between. We had site 30 which was a pull in, motorhomes only. We had a view of the mountains to the west. The only drawback would be in the summer facing west,  the front windshield would have a lot of heat gain along with some interstate noise. Management was very responsive and considerate. We did have a camper that was allowing their dog to run loose and management responded promptly. We asked if we could extend our stay if needed. We did need to stay one extra day. I was prepared to move the Bird, but they had blocked our site for a few more days. No need to move...that was very considerate. This may not have happened in their busy season, but it was a welcomed! Only 15 minutes into downtown Reno. This will be our go-to when we are back in the area.

Some friends of ours love North Fork Campground just off I-80 at Emigrant Gap, so we were going to try it on the way back from the California coast to Reno.  North Fork Campground was nice, and would have been a good place to spend the night, but felt a bit dark and tight with dense foliage along the beginnings of the North Fork of the American River.  We saw that Onion Valley Campground was just a bit further.  Nobody there, so we took a spot at the far end of the campground next to the meadow.  Very peaceful for a short afternoon stop and a morning departure.

The road up to Iowa Hill is terrifying- especially in the dark. We camped in our 4runner as we got there when it was dark and there was so much glass and shell casings everywhere from what seems to be a local shooting area. the town nearby is a bit eerie but fun to explore. it worked for one night! No amenities, but a bathroom and paid campsite down the rugged road so come with everything you need. Hike nearby with waterfall is beautiful

Newer showers and bathrooms than any other rv park in Reno. Very little foliage but that is the desert. Large and expensive laundry facility $4.50 for a load. Paid $59 for a back-in 30 amp site full service. Lots to do in the hotel other than gamble and as a camper you can use the hotel amenities - curling, pool, hot tubs, etc. We had fun in the Escape Room and Sensology games. Great views of the mtn range.

I am a 12 year old and I had tons of fun. Me and my friends were up there and there was conveniently a campground available in there same campsite. We went in the summer and the water was perfect! We went fishing and caught crawfish in a trap underneath the bridge near the front. Overall the staff were really nice and it was a great trip. I recommend it!

I stayed for one night before before going to Reno. The sun was setting I didn't want to set up in the dark. Got stuck setting up in the dark anyway. The dirt road on the way to the campsite is pretty washboarded. The campsite itself was about 2/3 full. Looks like a couple campers were here for quite a while.

Not a bad place to spend a night or two primitive camping

Bon rapport qualité prix comparer à celui un peu avant et proximité du lac

Sly Creek Reservoir is a beautiful mountain lake with several campsites along a small portion of the lake.

There is a boat ramp and ATV riding on the forest roads in the area.

The campground closed in 2024 for tree removal and cleanup but is expected to open in 2025.

Passes are honored.

This place is so wonderful and free. We were the only people in our camp area for the entire stay.  If you go with some friends, Diamond Back has a perfect spot for two decent size RV's. 

Very clean, trash pick up service was great and the vault toilets were nice if you were tent camping and needed a clean place to do your business. 

Trail riding galore. Went on all the trails and out in the sand dune area we came upon wild horses, this was quite a site to see. They were just running and being playful. 

I would avoid this place in the summer, hot and with no power it would be a sweat box.

We only found one good area and it already had 2 people at it. It had level sites and nice tall trees. It also tucked in out of the wind. We some for other sites but they were windy, rough road to reach them, and not level so we moved on

Love our stay at Logger Campground, very clean vault toilets, and facility. Most of the spots are very tight, narrow spaces. Make some when you book, you get the right size spot. Pay dump just offsite.

All camp sites have a picnic table and a fire ring. Please ensure fires are permitted before starting a fire. The campground was clean and quiet. Pit toilets were clean and well stocked. Please note that I was there during the week. I imagine that during summer weekends it can get quite noisy with boat and jet ski traffic being so close to Reno. I would definitely stay again.
