Mount Rose Campground sits at 9,300 feet elevation in the Sierra Nevada with 21 paved campsites offering excellent access to hiking trails (Mount Rose Summit, Tahoe Rim Trail) and Lake Tahoe for fishing and boating, located just 9 miles from the lake and 17 miles west of Reno via Highway 431.

The campground features vault toilets, potable water, fire rings, food storage lockers, and pet-friendly policies, with sites available June through September at $32-$55 per night; reservations are recommended as it's highly popular and consistently rated among the top campgrounds in the region.

Be prepared for cold nights and intense winds at this elevation, and note that black bears frequent the area requiring proper food storage.
