Gold Lake Campground

nearest town: Graeagle CA

part of: Plumas National Forest

A Forest Service Campground in the North Sierras region.

Number of visits: 1

GPS: 39.6808,-120.646

Bathroom: pit • Water: no

In the Lakes District between Graeagle and Bassett. The other campgrounds on this road are $20-24, but this one is $10. It has no water, and is pretty rough around the edges, but it's on the lake and pretty sweet. The boat launch area is in the campground.

There are a few select campsites right on the lake, but they are close together and crowded with big rigs, so I elect to go down the road a bit. By rule all sites are on the away from the lake side of the road; but the lake is still very close.

I did not check it out, but I think there is a trail all the way to the Gold Lake Highway, and maybe even all the way around the lake.
