We saw people running, biking and kayaking as well a some that were doing the stand up paddle board thing with their dogs along for the ride. There are some sites that are even large enough for three campers at a time, if you are bringing a group. There were plenty of sites that had room for your camper and your boat if wanted to keep it close at night but use it during the day. A short drive from this campground is a boat ramp if you are dragging you boat along with you. We did need to level our camper with a couple blocks but nothing too extreme. We found it pretty easy to navigate through the maze and found that even big rigs were able to get around with ease. The roads in the campground are paved and the sites are paved as well. They also looked to be the best laid out. We loved site 120 in Steam Donkey and that is where we stay every time we come back now, but those 2 campgrounds seem to be the best maintained and the cleanest. Of the 6 campsite loops we found that we liked "Iron Ox" and "Steam Donkey" the best. Logger Campground is divided into 6 different loops, all with unique and interesting names. Noticed that some looked better than others. They also have little keepsakes that will help you remember your trip like stuffed bears and such. Just inside the entrance is a camp store that has things you might need like ice and ice cream or sodas. The campsites we saw were all clean and cared for by the camp hosts. All the campsites have a very sturdy picnic table and a fire ring with a grate on it. There is also a dump station just outside the entrance that you can use as you leave. There are no hook ups in the campground but there are vault toilets that are clean and water faucets sprinkled around. We saw tents and car campers as well as all sizes camping rigs. Situated in the pines above Stampede Reservoir, the Logger Campground has over 200 sites for camping. And it is close to stores in Truckee (10 miles) if you forget anything. Because it was close to home we were able to get our camping skills down without getting too far from the security of civilization. Luckily we found the Logger Campground just across the state line in California. We got our camper pretty late in 2013 so our trips out were few before the cold of Winter set in. If you are considering this campground maybe this will be helpful. I thought I would share a brief review of the Logger Campground at Stampede Reservoir, one of our favorite places to hideout.
