Canyon Creek Campground

Canyon Creek Campground offers 20 free campsites in a remote Tahoe National Forest setting ideal for fishing and paddling, with direct access to Canyon Creek and nearby lakes (Faucherie, Sawmill, and French).

The campground features vault toilets, bear-proof food lockers, and paved parking, but requires a high-clearance vehicle to navigate the very rough, rocky 12+ mile access road (trailers not recommended).

Water must be purified from the creek, and the site operates June-October with a 14-day stay limit and no reservations needed.
