Gold Lake Campground

All the campgrounds I checked on hwy 58 were full. They looked OK, but none as nice as Gold Lake, where I found some vacant sites. What a coup! Best campsite of my 12000-mile moto adventure. No road noise. Pit toilet. Lakeside site would have been nice, but they were all taken. It got chilly when I was there July 9. Perfect weather.

Absolutely stunning campground and lake. The host Stacy makes this place even better, she is very attentive, kind, and friendly. The sites are very clean and quiet. I will be back again and really hope to see Stacy again.

C'mon now!

My favorite place in the world possibly (fly fishing lake) kayaker and swim crowd stay away find other adventures. No motors . No bait. Barbless Hooks . Throw ALL Rainbow back
