Placer Campground
Placer Campground
Placer Campground sits near Mammoth Pool Reservoir in the Sierra National Forest and offers 30-foot RV-friendly sites with tables, grills, and fire rings, though no potable water is available on-site.
The campground operates seasonally from May through September with a 14-day maximum stay, and boaters should note that the reservoir is closed to fishing and boating from May 1 through June 15 annually.
Access requires traveling 37 miles northeast on Minarets Road from North Fork, followed by a half-mile drive on Mammoth Pool Road—note that larger RVs are not recommended due to road conditions.
