Swanson Meadow Campground
Swanson Meadow Campground is about 3 miles from Shaver Lake in the Sierra National Forest. The small campground provides a quieter alternative to the much larger and busier campgrounds along the west shore of the lake.
Swanson Meadow Campground is only a short drive from all the popular activities around Shaver Lake, including fishing, waterskiing, wakeboarding, swimming, hiking, kayaking, and picnicking. A nearby road that circumnavigates the lake provides access to good swimming areas on the lake's east shore.
Swanson Meadow Campground has 10 campsites deep among the trees. Some sites are doubles. Campsites are well spread apart and shaded by a mature conifer forest.

In order to prevent the spread of invasive insects, obtain firewood locally.
