Willow Campground

So much fun we came in for the night. We coming back for a longer stay real soon.

I really enjoy Brannan Island and I go tent camping there quite often. I find the $30+/ night tent camping fee a bit pricey but I am always glad to stay as they have the most wonderful camp hosts who seem to take great pleasure in going above and beyond to ensure the comfort, safety and enjoyment of their campers. I can not begin to thank Ozzy and his Beautiful Wife enough for all the kindness they showed me when I needed it most. And "Tex", you sure know how to add color to the day... Thank you all!

Moved my yearly camping trip from Truckee to here at the last minute due to the fires around Truckee. I actually did not really read the reviews until after I booked and became a bit nervous from what I read. I was very concerned we were going to be dealing with some angry rude camp hosts. This could not be further from the truth. Mel and Tom were very friendly and welcoming. They answered all of our questions and gave us some tips on where to fish as well as the closest stores. The bathrooms and showers seemed to be cleaned about 3 times a day and were by far the cleanest of any campsite I have ever been to. The only things I didn’t really like was the amount of shade (note we got 2 of the last few spots available). Some have good shade but many do not. Oh and it was crazy windy the first night. Also access to the water is limited. All in all a great experience with great friendly hosts. Would recommend this site. Sites 42 & 46.

This is our second time here over the past 2 years. We reserved a few spots for our windsurfing group. It is spacious and clean with plenty of trees scattered about. It’s a little nicer by the river and less nosy; on the street side, the noise of the traffic is non stop. There are 3 or 4 facilities along the campground; during our stay, due to Covid-19, the showers were closed. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Overall, it’s still a lovely place to camp and reasonably priced.

The boat ramp is AWESOME!! I would launch my boat with my class A motor home here. Extremely wide ramp, with many lanes!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did NOT camp here, we were day boating.
