I would give it all the stars, but the restaurant and the bar were closed for remodeling while we were there. It would have been my five-star experience

The campground is gorgeous, set in a mature forest of healthy Jeffrey Pines. Most RV campsites are long and and fairly wide. However, most of the back-in sites are extremely difficult to get into because of the trees. Many are in places that make it nearly impossible to back into your site - at the corner of your campsite, across the access road, where you need to swing the front of your truck, or encroaching on the pad in your site. I would never wish to see the trees removed, but wow, they make it hard to park. The campground has a forklift with a hitch on it. They might be willing to park your trailer if you ask; I don't know. I didn't see the forklift until I was parked, after 45 minutes of wiggling my way between trees. (I would never have gotten into my site - Site 130 - if the pull-through site in front of me had been occupied.) The staff are not very helpful or particularly friendly. The access roads are narrow, but that's the cost of having all those amazing trees. Don't get me wrong. I love this campground, but it is really difficult to RV camp here if you end up in certain sites. Several of our fellow campers made the same comment.

Gorgeous campground conveniently located in South Lake Tahoe. Access to restaurants, boat tours, shopping, nature, casinos, etc. The huge boulders were fun for out cats to climb on. Kids would love to climb them too. Friendly and helpful staff.

I was unsure what space to select when making our reservation. Thankfully they were able to change our space because the original one did not fit out RV. We were lucky not to have anyone in the space next to ours which gave us a beautiful view of the trees. We took the M.S. Dixie cruise to Emerald Bay and had a wonderful day!
