Ask about this camp →U.S. Forest Service lists this as a developed campground. Expect marked sites, a fee station or a reservation, and the usual campground rules. The dispersed-camping freedom of the surrounding forest does not apply inside it. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

How it was placed
Developed FEE campground (not free) - review | auto:usfs-fee 2026-08-20: US Forest Service developed campground, agency coordinates, agency states a fee. No dollar amount in the agency record -- expect a charge and confirm the current rate before you go. Not field-verified. | Fee 2026-08-22: $23 per site per night. READ THIS CAVEAT: the forest page's own 'Fee Site and Info' block prints two contradictory lines one after the other -- 'No fees are required for this site' and '$23 per site'. The live EDW record independently gives fee_charged=Y, EXPANDED AMENITY FEE and 'Single Site: $23 per night', so $23 is the reading we publish, but a camper should carry the fee either way. The page was last updated 2026-08-19. Limits: 2 vehicles per campsite, 14-day stay. Sources: https://www.fs.usda.gov/r05/plumas/recreation/tooms-rv-campground and https://apps.fs.usda.gov/arcx/rest/services/EDW/EDW_RecInfraRecreationSites_02/MapServer/0/query?where=site_name='TOOMS RV CAMP' AND region='05'.
