Taboose Creek Campground

We were headed south to Lone Pine and Tuttle CG (Alabama Hills), but stopped when we saw smoke that turned out to be from a wildfire on the Whitney Portal Road. Pulled in here for the night instead of going further. Variety of size sites, all are flat and easy to get into-many you just pull up alongside a picnic table. A few towards the west end of the CG required backing into and probably better for vans and tents. We stayed in a wide-open site right alongside the small creek. Potable water available to fill water jugs and bottles but not RV tanks. Cost was $14/night, no discounts as this is a county park. The credit card kiosk was working when we were there. Sites can be reserved on reserveamerica, so check to be sure the site you choose doesn’t have a reserved sign on it for the night(s) you want to stay—weekends seemed to be reserved more than weeknights.

This really is a lovely spot just a short distance from HWY 395; perfect for our journey home. I do not understand why the previous reviewer said he paid $0.00 because it is 14.00 and does not allow any discounts , not even our Passport America pass. This is an Into County campground.

There are about 36 sites and they look very easy to access; there are some in which you create your own pull through. Bring cash for the machine because our credit card did not work. Some sites are " walk in" and not redeemable. There does not appear to be a camp host but one of the sites said reserved, so we parked in one that did not say reserved.

There are nice trees with a small creek running through, quiet, no highway noise. We were here in mid October on a Monday night.

This is a nice little spot to camp. It is an undeveloped site in the county park system. Open spots along a small cold water creek. The only trees are small and alongside the creek. Mixed results for fishermen. No guard or camp host on site. Okay for a few nights against the mountain. Beware the power lines can induce a current in the metal siding of the RV or truck. Do not camp directly under the power lines. Other areas are okay.
