China flat has been the place I grew up going to as a child. Now my children are growing up as China flat being their camping spot. China flat is beautiful, the camp hosts are amazing, the facility is clean and even though small for a camping spot it has been amazing to grow up here. Weather you want to get up early with the birds to fish, do a little white water tubing, swim in the amazing swimming hole or just go exploring this place has it al !!! Happy camping

Great camping experience at China Flat campgrounds. Fishing was good just 2 miles up the road towards Silver Fork campgrounds. Campgrounds were clean and quiet throughout the week and we enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend these campgrounds. Great river access for rafting in inner tubes.

Great campground. Most sites aren't right next to each other, though some are such as the ones down by the river. We had #8, so we were decently far from other camp sites. The restrooms are regularly maintained and toilet paper is well stocked. Most campers around us were quiet at 9pm or 10pm but on Friday & Saturday night, there was a large group near site #6 that were loud up until 11pm or so. Thankfully #8 was decently far from them, though I feel bad for people that were near them. And on Sunday evening had a family by the water on site #17 or #18 that was laughing and talking like it was daytime up until 12:30am. I had thought about notifying the host but I didn't want to bother them. Overall we had a good camping experience, we had stayed for 4 nights in total(Checked in Thursday, Left Monday morning.) Firewood is decently priced all things considered. However if you're able to, bringing your own firewood wouldn't hurt. Though if you plan to come on Friday or Saturday, best come early as since the sites fill up FAST!!!

Nice small campground right off of Hwy 50 in Kyburz. Most of the campsites are right next to the river. The bathrooms are relatively clean but the toilets are outhouse style and do not flush. There are no shower facilities so you're really roughing it unless you have an RV. Bring insect repellent as the mosquitoes and other insects are plentiful. The couple that run the campground do a nice job of maintaining it

A campgrounds set amongst the trees along the south fork of the American River. An idyllic setting to relax, hike, swim or fish. The highway noise may bother some but I'm a sound sleeper and the traffic at night is light. Vault toilets, dumpsters, water spigots are dispersed around the sites. There is a dump for RVs and a spigot to refill your water tank. There are sites across the river too. Could be a group area as most are tent only. Huge swimming hole near spaces 10 and 11. Fishing was tough because of the boulder strewn shoreline. There a single and double sites. Most sites have plenty of space to spread out. Good signal for Verizon. Weak signal for T-Mobile.

We happened upon this site one late afternoon looking for a place to camp for the night. On an impulse, when seeing the brown sign for the campground we turned in, drove down the hill hoping our 36 foot Phaeton and tow car would fit. George, the camp host of 12 years and counting and another camper, whom had just arrived greeted us and helped us get into the site. We were hooked. the campground is secluded, down a grade in a flat and sandy place along the American river. We boondocked overnight (there are no hookups but water and dump available) and the next morning signed up for 4 more nights. It is wonderful, quiet, peaceful and we would return in a flick of the key. Don't miss it. You must meet George and his wife and find peace and a quiet place near South Lake Tahoe.
