Markleeville Campground

Markleeville Campground offers 9 first-come, first-served campsites situated alongside Markleeville Creek at 5,500 feet elevation in the Eastern Sierra, with each site featuring a picnic table, campfire ring, and bear-proof food storage locker.

The campground accommodates tents and small RVs/trailers up to 24 feet and provides vault toilets and garbage service, though potable water is not currently available—visitors must bring their own water supply.

Open mid-April through early September, the location provides access to fishing and hiking opportunities in the Carson River drainage area, with a California campfire permit required for fire use.
