Sites were nice and the lake is close. There were a couple of bears present so listen to the hosts and managers about leaving food outside, someone did and their items were torn apart looking for food. Backing into sites with a truck and trailer can be very tight depending on your over all length and if its a TT or 5th you're towing. We had very large trees on either side of of the road so it made a pinch point for backing in, had to adjust a couple of times. If you rent a spot and drive up and use it just for parking they will inform you that is not allowed which doesnt make sense if you rented it and couldnt get you trailer there you've already paid for it. They are strick about parking anywhere but the asphalt. If you do not want to be charged for a second vehicle you can park right outside the entrance to the left at no cost, but if you have a boat trailer you are fine to park in on the dirt. Many spots are first come first serve which is nice, but dont be surprised if people show up early for a spot and place chairs in others spots trying to save them for those camping with them with a trailer. Not sure how that works but ok. The managers of the sites are very nice and informative. They walked down to our site when we pulled in to give us all the recent info with wild life, trash bin locations, and weather.

This is a beautiful camp ground , with lake access. One of the few lakes in the Tahoe region that is actually warm. If you are a boat owner then launch your boat and enjoy the sun and fishing . If you just want to paddle around in the lake with your kayaks or paddle boards this is also a great spot as it’s not over ran with boating activities. A win for all ! One star taken off as there are bears , but no bear boxes on site. You will have to keep all food and personal items in your locked car at all times . The bears do wander around in the day as well as night , but are easily scared off by loud noises . Make sure you bring hand soap and a hand towel with you into the restrooms, as they do not supply either . The showers are nice. They are single stalls for privacy, and very roomy . My friends and family had a great time . Definitely recommend and I will be camping there again . Fingers crossed they get those bear boxes installed though .

Great distance from the site to the water. Site #23. FYI no flat land for a tent it does have a slight slope, but saw some that are much worse. Portable water every few sites which was nice (directly across from our site). Patty the camp host was super nice and informative. As it was our first time here. Showers was good (takes quarters). Not very crowded so we were able to leave our beach/water stuff by the water overnight (of course tied down). Bears were active but no issues. Will definitely be back. And next time I know exactly which site is perfect for a tent.

Great place got a weekend trip. There are reserve sites and first come sites. Camp host was friendly and helpful.

Always love camping here, just a short drive North of reno. Campsites are usually pretty clean, restrooms arent the cleanest but better than some. No bear boxes which is weird, there was an active bear out when we were there. No electrical or sewer hookups so bring your generator if you want power. Showers by the honker boat launch are decent also. The reason for 4 stars is no bear boxes and the hosts dont update site reservations very well. Other than that, some great camping, fishing, and a beautiful lake

I absolutely enjoyed my time out there. It's pretty close to the lake itself. There were Eagles nests and deer roaming around. However, be vigilant as the bears were very active this season. Our family lost a good amount breakfast burritos, tritip, and a cake. Frank (the name we gave the bear) is able to get into latched coolers. Very smart.

Really liked the campground. Nice spots spread pretty far apart. No mosquitoes mid July. However, camp host Roeann is about the most unpleasant person I have ever met in my life and clearly the worst camp “host” I have ever encountered. We already shared our concerns with her boss who acknowledged she’s quite difficult. We’ll be working on getting her removed .

Cool area, right next to Lake Davis but the campsite are close together.

Great! We did the first come first serve campsites and it felt like old school camping again. Always a great that rec.gov hasn't tried to control that. Not everyone can plan months ahead and have it work. We just decided to go and it worked out great. I've been going to lake Davis for 40+ years and never needed to have reservations and that site is horrible. Most of the reserve sites were still empty all weekend rec.gov needs to go!!

Nice campground. Some reservable sites, mostly first come, first served. Not much ranger/host presence. Verizon cell service was spotty (mostly non-existent, but as many as three bars in some areas). Some nice beach areas, boat ramp available nearby. No dump station in the campground but there is one nearby that serves 3 area campgrounds. Too busy so we ended up going to Bordertown RV Park to use theirs.

Had an amazing time and weekend. Racoons stole our food. Woops! Make sure to lock it all up. Bugs were intense at night. Bathrooms were clean but didnt have soap so pack some!
