Big Reservoir Campground in Tahoe National Forest offers 19 reservable sites (via Recreation. gov) located 13 miles northeast of Foresthill, with vault toilets, drinking water, and picnic tables at each site.

The campground is adjacent to a privately operated lake with non-motorized boating access, though lake use requires an additional $25 fee through the adjacent Morning Star Campground.

Sites are available May 24 - September 3 at $24 per night, with reservations required at least 3 weeks in advance.
