Big Reservoir, also known as Morning Star, is
located in the Tahoe National Forest, in a lush
wonderland of magnificent pines and conifers
towering above the shore. The reservoir is a
relatively small body of water and only has a
surface area of 80 acres. Big Reservoir is a
haven for paddlers during the fall, spring and
summer.
The reservoir’s 5-mph boat speed limit,
two-and-a-quarter miles of shoreline and
campground setting also make it a popular
destination for campers and anglers.
Aside from kayaking, canoeing and fishing,
there’s a host of other activities which you
and your family or friends will enjoy, such
as paddle boarding, for instance. There are
also hiking and bicycling trails and
off-road four wheeling opportunities at Big
Reservoir. In the summer, the lake’s water
is warm enough for swimming.
 Here
comes the BUT.... the management is
something else. Read the YELP reviews. It’s a real shame because it
is a beautiful place to paddle and camp.
