About

Alpine Meadow Campground sits in the Martis Creek Lake area a short drive off State Highway 267 on Martis Dam Road, just over a mile from the highway. The campground occupies an open alpine valley ringed by pines and higher mountain slopes, with lake and creek habitat nearby and regular wildlife sightings for those willing to scan the trees and shoreline. There are 24 campsites total, and each site is listed for both RV and tent camping, so you can expect a compact campground that accommodates vehicles as well as traditional tent rigs. Basic on-site amenities include vault toilets, and potable water is available at the campground entrance; an amphitheater provides a sheltered gathering spot for group activities or talks. The broader Martis Creek recreation area is oriented toward low-impact outdoor pursuits: hiking and mountain biking on nearby trails, canoeing and kayaking on the lake, and catch-and-release trout fishing along the creek and reservoir. The site also supports environmental education, picnicking, and wildlife viewing, making it a good base for families, small groups, or solo campers looking for a quieter alternative to Lake Tahoe's busier shores. Reservations and payment are handled through Recreation.gov (fees and cancellations follow Recreation.gov policy), so check that site for current seasonal openings, fee information, and specific camping rules before you go; directions from Highway 267 onto Martis Dam Road will get you to the campground entrance in just a short drive, and towns and attractions such as Truckee, Northstar, Lake Tahoe and Reno are all within easy driving distance.
