Best Cabin Camping near Truckee, CA

I’ll start by saying this campsite is huge , there’s like 400 sites so you got to keep that in mind when booking . We got a couple of the sites with electricity which were nice . No fire pits included because those are rented additional , lucky we had one from home . Firewood is $10 a bundle at the store so keep that in mind . The campground advertises WiFi but it’s ran from an separate company and service is extremely poor and slow so your better of using your cellphone data . This is a very active bear area with no bear boxes so keep in mind . We saw bears every single night roaming around and eating from the picnic tables . Some small , medium and extra large size . I recommend the tent sites better than the RV sites because they have a nice location and more private . The RV sites are just packed like sardines , some barely fit or stick out a few inches . Restrooms are clean and showers too . Funny detail the shower head is positioned for ADA handicap specs so you got to kneel down or seat to shower . The campground is located on the Main Street so it’s walking distance to stores or restaurants , I would go back but choose a better site on an outside loop more secluded instead of being in the middle of hundreds of rv’s

This is a privately owned Resort with cabins, yurts, campsites, etc close to a super awesome river and with lots of great amenities, including a cafe/store, sauna, trails and a restaurant. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because I didn't love the site itself that we were in especially with a $60 price tag. It was great to be close to the river, but the site was small and on a hill like a lot of them were. There were cheaper sites but I didn't see what those were like. Otherwise, we had fun playing in the water, using the sauna and having access to great amenities before going into more primitive camping. There was a fire ban while we were there, and there is NO SMOKING anywhere on their property. Everyone that worked there was super friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our stay.

Stayed here in Oct 2020. Paid $55/night. They have a stated rig age limit but let us camp with our 1967 camper. Mix of permanent and transient RVs. Standard hookups but no picnic tables or fire rings.

We were placed right next to one of the bathrooms on a busy corner. People and staff kept driving/walking through our site. Leaf blowers/mowers woke us up super early.

Bathrooms were clean but the laundromat was out of order. The park is in town but not really near anything you’d want to walk to except the Truckee river.

Overall, could be nice but our experience was not good. Costs way too much for what you get.

My daughter and I stayed here for 4 days in July. The park is clean and they show you to your site and help you park. It was only my second time parking my trailer so that was much appreciated. The sites are gravel and level. There’s a lot to do in the area. The town of Graeagle is just a short bit up the road and there are lots of little cute shops there. There are many lakes just a short drive away as well.There are a lot of beautiful trees and shade but it was still much hotter than I expected. There is a creek that runs next to the park but when we were there in July the water was barely moving. There’s a little fenced in dog area at the back of the park so that’s nice is you bring your pups. The office is very small and there’s not really a store. I didn’t use the showers but they looked to be clean. The drive from Truckee to the park is beautiful.

Nestled on the tranquil shores of Lake Tahoe, our family's stay at the cabins was nothing short of enchanting. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking views of the crystal-clear Tahoe water. My wife and I were having a celebratory wedding weekend with family, we had just gotten married (eloped) in Yosemite the day before driving to Tahoe. The cabins were full of rustic charm, very cozy, and in a great location!

One of the highlights of our trip was waking up to the beauty of Lake Tahoe right outside our window. Whether we were sipping coffee on the porch or enjoying a family campfire by the shore, the lake served as the perfect backdrop for our celebratory memories.

The campground itself was well-maintained and staffed by friendly and accommodating personnel who were very helpful when it came to our firewood needs! We took advantage of the various recreational activities available, from hiking trails to water sports, and even had a chance to roast marshmallows over a campfire under the starry night sky.

Overall, our experience at the Meeks Bay Resort cabins exceeded our expectations in every way. It provided the ideal setting for quality family time, relaxation, and adventure amidst the stunning beauty of nature. We can't wait to return for another unforgettable getaway. Everyone voted that we should do this every year so we are looking forward to making this a yearly event!
