Big Meadow Campground sits at 6,400 feet elevation in Stanislaus National Forest with 65 individual campsites featuring picnic tables, fire rings, and bear boxes.

Lake Alpine and Spicer Meadow Reservoir are located just 15 minutes away and offer fishing and water recreation opportunities.

The campground operates seasonally (typically June-September) on a first-come, first-served basis for individual sites, with potable water and vault toilets available during the open season, though note that Highway 4 traffic noise may be apparent at some sites.
