The campground features 206 sites that include six yurts and standard tent and RV sites. The campground is typically open from mid-May through mid-October.

Guests only need to walk a short distance to Fallen Leaf Lake, where the forested shoreline and surrounding mountains are reflected in its crystal-clear waters.
