Cottonwood Creek Campground

Cottonwood Creek Campground offers 48 campsites nestled in Jeffrey pine and fir forest along Highway 89 in the Tahoe National Forest, with each site equipped with a picnic table and campfire ring.

The campground provides access to fishing opportunities in the surrounding area and two hiking trails (Botanical Trail and Overlook Trail) directly from the campground, though potable water is not available on-site.

Sites range from $20/night, with the outer loop offering better privacy and shade; note that vault toilets have reported odor issues, and Highway 89 noise is audible throughout the campground.
