Poppy Campground is a remote, primitive 12-site campground on the northwest shore of French Meadows Reservoir accessible only by boat or a one-mile trail from McGuire parking lot.

Located at 5,300 feet elevation in a coniferous forest near Granite Chief Wilderness, it offers a pack-in/pack-out experience with no services, restrooms available, and water that must be purified from the reservoir ($18/night per site).
