Canyon Creek Campground Tahoe National Forest California

Canyon Creek Overview

Canyon Creek Campground has 20 primitive (first-come, first-served) campsites next to the creek in a remote area of Tahoe National Forest. It’s also less than a mile from Faucherie Lake. The road to the campground is very rough, rocky, and narrow, requiring high clearance; towing/trailers not recommended.

Campsites can accommodate tents, trailers and RVs. Each site also has a paved parking spur, table, food storage locker (bear box), fire ring and grill.

The rustic campground has vault toilets but water and trash services are not provided. Campers must pack-in/pack-out everything.  Cell service is not available.
