Lakeside Campground along with neighboring Prosser Family Campground have multiple sites that are either shaded by the forest or more exposed along the shoreline. All have campfire rings, picnic tables, and nearby vault toilets, plus easy access to hiking trails and the water. Although Prosser Creek Reservoir was manmade, it's kept full by snow runoff each spring and summer. Therefore, like other gorgeous high-elevation lakes in the Sierra Nevada that aren't Lake Tahoe, it can feel like a cold-plunge pool when swimming. Try Truckee Watersports for motorboats or Tahoe Sports Hub for paddle-driven excursions.
