In the 60's I use to camp there as a Camp Fire Girl.  There were many activities and fun to be had by all....

East Meadows Campground - Tahoe National Forest
13 miles away
East Meadows has been a favorite since my first trip. The area is full of natural attractions. A favorite is to go sit in the small waterfalls just a short hike from the campsite. Beaware that because of the elevation, the campground does not open Memorial Day like most (although they will let you make reservations during that weekend), it's usually still covered in snow until the middle of June. However, once you get there you will see what a couple extra weeks of snow will bring in beauty to the surroundings....

What do the stripers bite on at Far West Lake?...
Yeah well...I caught 35 bluegills, 12 channels, and 1 huge striper out of the lake two days ago, so there's no more fish to go around for you...and the best part is I caught all of that in 2 hours....
Where is the best place to catch fish?...
This lake is a 7 out of 10... I say this because it's kinda empty.. not alot of trees, but the water is great... followed by the fishing.. I caught 47 bass in about 4-5 hrs of fishing with plastics, nights crawlers, and crank bait.... The cat fish bite is hot.. the good thing about this spot, no one there, lots of fish for everyone.... the camping and entry are cheap.. They even have a store where you can buy beer n snacks....
