Prosser Overview

Prosser Family Campground has 29 campsites and sits on the west shore above Prosser Reservoir about 8 miles north of Truckee in the Sierra Nevada.

Campground amenities include potable (drinking) water, vault toilets and trash collection. Firewood is also available for sale from the camp host. A boat ramp is also nearby (about 1/2 mile). Cell service is good.
