Lucked out and picked a good site. It's a big place but sites are spaced out perfectly. Site 137 was perfect for our truck and trailer. Good shade. Close too bathrooms.

This campground was spectacular. The scenery, the forest, the nearby lake, were very beautiful, and was exactly what we were looking for. The restroom was right by us, and was very clean. Each campsite was far enough, that the noise was other parties was minimal. The anti-bear 🐻 storage unit was right next to the campsite, also convenient. The customer service was also very nice and accommodating for our huge party! (After searching through many of the Tahoe campgrounds, this is one of the few that allows up to two vehicles per campsite, making it perfect for our large group.) I would recommend this campground to anyone!

It's Heaven on Earth! Campsites are spacious and beautiful and clean. None of that -- too close to your neighbors -- situation going on here! Fallen Leaf Lake is so beautiful and fun and is a dream come true.

Loved it! Very wild and secluded. Nice restrooms and showers (4×25ç/3min). But really follow every direction regarding bears! The first night we slept there one bear openned (human style) two of our car doors looking for food (there were just some bread crumbs under my son's seat and a lip balm but seemed enough!).

Cute campsite! We stayed at #38, which ended up being pretty isolated from the rest of the campsites, which all seemed pretty squished together. Site itself was beautiful and extremely well-maintained. Bathrooms were in excellent condition - super clean, with 3-minute showers for $1 (quarters only). Would love to return again!
