  Peavine Road Dispersed Camping

  Complete trash dump

  It's sad where we have this public land to camp on and people just dump tons and tons of trash and abandoned cars and demolished cars on the property would not recommend going. There's some more BLM land about 15 to 20 minutes north on Red Rock road.

  Loon Lake

  Old boat ramp, rock and uneven

  Nice peaceful spot. Few cars go by, but it’s tucked away enough.

  Grizzly Creek Campground

  Nestled in the trees

  This campground is a very quiet spot after Labor Day, it is small, only 10 sites total and it is only open until September 30, which I don't understand since there is no snow here until November.

  When we were there only one other camper was staying here and he was a deer hunter.

  The water is shut off after Labor Day so come prepared. This campground has two sites that will take a 30' trailer and the remaining sites will take smaller trailers, tents or campers.

  One site has a new picnic table but all sites have tables, fire pits and plenty of room between sites. Pit toilets are near the entrance and only one was clean when we stayed here.

  Not to far from Bucks Lake if you want to camp and then drive to the lake.

  Fees have changed, they are $25 a night and $12.50 if you have the pass.

  Plumas National Forest Sly Creek Campground

  South Feather and Power water company campground

  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.

  Ponderosa Flat Campground

  PGE campground

  This campground and the one to the south, Cool Springs, are both run by Pacific Gas and Electric Utility company. 

  There are campground hosts at both campgrounds and late in September half of Ponderosa Flat closes. The entire campground closes at the end of September. 

  There was plenty of water in the Reservoir and it could be okay for a boat but you have to look out for all the snags in the water, and there are a lot of them.

  Campground is quiet but tight to get a large trailer in, ours is 26 feet and it was tight. The spaces in the closed portion of the campground were a bit more spacious. 

  Fire rings, tables and pit toilets. It was $30 a night with no power, power sites are more expensive. 

  If you have a cool campground host you can ride your ATV or Side by side out onto the dirt road and ride for miles. Just be mindful it is not really supposed to be a ride out campground.

  Logger Campground

  Beautiful campground with lake views.

  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.

  Lodgepole Campground

  Perfectly Situated in the Sequoias

  I thought this campground was pretty decent for being NPS run and due to its large size. The campsite was close to other campers, but not right on top of them. The location is ideal. Bathrooms were the least favorite part, only one bathroom (with 4 stalls?) for one large loop of campsites. Check-in was a breeze. Nearby visitor center and camp store was convenient. There were hiking trails nearby. Be bear aware!

  Gold Ranch Casino and RV Resort

  good place

  Да, Valorant действительно классная игра, особенно если ты любишь командные шутеры с элементами тактики. Графика и геймплей просто отличные, и каждая игра может стать настоящим испытанием. Если ты ищешь что-то новенькое и увлекательное, стоит попробовать. Кстати, если ты тоже интересуешься онлайн-казино, могу порекомендовать отличный сайт: sportx.kz/luchshee-onlain-kazino-v-kazakhstane. Они предлагают разнообразные игры и удобный интерфейс. Надеюсь, что информация будет полезной. Удачи и в игре, и вставках!

  Antelope Lake Recreation Area

  Beautiful

  We had a great time up at Antelope Lake. It is a very pretty lake and would definitely recommend going. However, the camp host there was very rude and very unaccommodating. I booked 6 campsites for two nights, when I showed up on Friday, the campground was not full so I moved to my trailer to a different site because it was close to friends and family. The site I moved to was first come first serve. The camp host was hounding me - saying I must pay for the site I moved to even though the campground wasn't full. Originally, I paid close to $500 for all 6 sites and the camp host made me pay for the extra site that wasn't even taken/reserved. Be careful of this guy! I think this guy might be pocketing the money.

  Sycamore Ranch RV Park

  Clean, comfortable spot

  Very clean campground with a helpful host. Bathrooms/showers for paid guest have a code to get in. The day use area has porta potties. This place is dark at night so really good for star watching.

  I have not stayed here but the website states switched to permanent residents. Likely hard to find a spot.

  Haskins Valley Campground

  Nice, easy access to lake

  It's along a cove in the lake. Super nice hosts and nice campers. The bathrooms are kind of gross but that's expected. Always camp here when we go to the lake.

  Quail Ridge RV Park

  Serene RV Trailer Park?

  Place wasn’t too bad. Very nice people, very peaceful, and quiet, however, there were many people here who are permanent residents of the park, some of their areas are a little trashy looking for lack of a better word. Definitely not a bad spot if you’re on the way to another campground, but there are probably better ones to head to, especially if you have children with you. We were also looking for a place to camp with two days notice and this was all we could find. Cheap too!

  Davis Creek Regional Park

  Nice spot for a few days

  We actually camp here often because it's the closest place that feels like we're in the mountains. Not many campgrounds in Northern NV have forest like trees. The spaces are a good size but kinda close to one another. Rangers are friendly and often stop by just to see how things are going. Currently there's a fire ban but they do have fire pits. You can park right at your site. The rate has increased to 30.00 a night and they charge a pet fee of 1.00 per animal per night. The only thing that kind of detracts from the camping atmosphere is the freeway. You are close enough to hear it but it's more a white noise with the occasional truck breaking. You can't see it though so that's a plus.

  Collins Lake Recreation Area

  Lakeside

  *pros: great little market, very nice staff, clean, great views *cons: rocky watch your step, especially at the beach and a long the shore. Recommend water shoes, although this may only help a little as the rocks are quite large and when can trip over them as much as step on them. they are not round river rocks, but pointy and painful to traverse. *my stay: I was only here for two nights and on the second morning some people pulled in and pitched a tent at 4:30 in the morning. They weren’t particularly loud, but they did curse and had their flashlight bright enough that it shone into my site and RV. Overall, it was still a very pleasant stay for the two nights.

  Cool Springs Campground

  Secret Place Near Lake Almanor

  Just try to get a last minute camp spot on Memorial Day weekend most places.  We were fortunate to discover Butt Lake near Lake Almanor.  Only one small burn area far from the campgrounds.  Friday was opening day for Cool Springs campground.  A PG&E operated facility, it was in great shape and ready for the season.  We did three nights, departing on Monday.  On Friday night we were one of only a few guests.  Saturday and Sunday were full, but the feeling was vary spacious.  The lake is a reservoir with no actual inlet.  Rather it is fed by a pipe from Lake Almanor with a hydroelectric plant just prior to the water entering Butt Lake.  Oddly for a PG&E lake there is not hydroelectric plant at the outlet dam.  Did some bike riding to check out the dam, Ponderosa Flat campground, Pioneer cemetery, and east shore of the lake.

  Lookout Campground

  Fantastic Crystal Peak

  This site is really close to Reno, except for the time it takes on the dirt road.  We went in one way and out the other.  Our way in was from 395 at Bordertown north of Reno on Long Valley Road.  Once on the dirt the first couple of miles were bad washboard.  Slow going.  Then, the rest of the trip had some challenging driving with rocks and ruts.  We went really slow and everything was fine.  We left via Dog Valley Road and hit the pavement again in Verdi.

  We visited for a night mid-week.  Only one other campsite was occupied.  The trail from the campground to Crystal Peak was great.  It's more like Crystal knoll.  The history of Cristal Peak is amazing, and the crystals are everywhere.  Really nice views from atop the knoll too.  Many people visit just for the day to collect crystals.

  Movin' West RV Park

  A great place to stay in Graeagle, CA

  It was a great RV park to stay at in Graeagle, California. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is great. The town is only 1 mile from the RV park and you can easily walk there. I highly recommend the Graeagle Outpost for coffee, ice cream, and more.

  It would be even better if there was more space between each RV spot. It feels like your neighbor is right there in your business all the time. They put up fences to give some semblance of privacy but it doesn't really help because they are only partial fences.

  Union Valley Reservoir Dispersed Camping

  It was okay

  Pretty easy to get to and lots of spaces for dispersed sites. There was trash EVERYWHERE. Broken glass, toilet trash, bottles and cans, we were really disappointed. We found a spot pretty hidden which was rad but someone was shooting litteraly all night long which was frustrating. We probably won’t come back.

  Donner Memorial state park

  Nice Campground

  We spent 2 nights midweek here in early June. Nice and quiet. The campground is pretty with big Jeffrey Pines and large boulders. Clean bathrooms. The showers were nice but a couple of them didn’t have hot water. The memorial and the museum were very interesting. Most of the sites are nicely spaced apart but you can still see other campers.

  Wolf Creek Campground

  Beautiful area but too many people

  First off, the name is actually WOLF CREEK GROUP CAMPGROUND, and that should be your first clue that this is one of those big campgrounds with a lot of sites all packed in together.  (Technically, there are several Wolf Creek Group Campgrounds along the road--this review is for the first one you come to after Yellowjacket.)  Anyway, this is my own personal bias but I’m really over big campgrounds with lots of people and their music, screaming kids, and campfire smoke. Although the site is absolutely beautiful—right on the reservoir—the campground is big and noisy. The reservoir is warm and fun to swim in but the rocks are sharp in places (bring water shoes). Boat traffic is pretty steady on the weekend, less so during the week. Another camper told me the weekdays are the best time to come: the campground and lake are much quieter. We did FCFS but ended up with an excellent campsite. Now, the particulars: They seem to be having a problem with marauding bears lately.  One cub literally walked right up to us while we were playing cards and stood there, watching.  Our German shepherd, truck alarm, and a little yelling was enough to scare it off, but that was not good behavior for a bear who wants to live a long life.  Ditto for the other adult bears who scoured the campground all night long, looking (and sadly, finding) things to eat.  There wasn't much sleeping going on and you could hear dogs barking and people yelling pretty much through the night.  USE THE BEAR BOXES AND DON'T LEAVE ANYTHING OUT (including fish you catch in ice chests).  These bears will pay with their lives if they keep scavenging like this.  Finally, bathrooms were clean on Friday but by Saturday (again, a lot of people) they were disgusting.  I felt sorry for the camp hosts, trying to keep them clean.  Water and dumpsters are available.

  Lodgepole Campground

  Beautiful place and plenty to do.

  It's one of our favorite places to camp. Amazing Giant Sequoia Trees. Small creek/river runs through the campground where you can fish. The place is clean and has flush toilets. Within a short drive, you can partake on some amazing hikes. You have to see, in person, the General Sherman Tree. It's just a beautiful place to camp.
