We love Lake Tahoe and the proximity of it from this campground. Our camp space was not even close to being level and it was a challenge to make our RV level. The check in line backed out in the highway and we had to block traffic to wait in line. Also, our site had leftover trash from previous campers. Overall we were disappointed with the maintenance of this campground.

We stayed at RV sites 7, 5 and 4, near the main road, across from the Camp Richardson Hotel. Road noise was tolerable, sites were almost perfectly level. Sites deeper into the campground tend to need more leveling of the rv. Check in process was seamless, window tags were ready for us at the booth when we arrived. The Grove restaurant had great food and service, right on the lake. Live music was terrific! We stayed the first week of August and enjoyed great weather and friendly campers

We have been coming to Camp Richardson for about 6 years. Everything about the facility is wonderful but the bathrooms on the RV camp spots are disgusting. I have 2 small children and I don't dare give them a bath in those bathrooms. With few spots having sewer you end up having to go to the showers so you don't fill up your tank in the RV. The price keeps getting higher but the bathrooms don’t change!

We have stayed at this place for the past few years and it’s our favorite place to camp. We are excited every year to book our stay.
