Customer Reviews
Great place if you like roughing it. Very quiet and only two sights which are not even visible to each other. No water or electric but there is a toilet seat mounted to a box over a hole for your business. Very large sites could easily have two good size campers with plenty of space to still move around. 50 ft. off the lake makes it easy to launch a kayak. Plus there is a boat launch down the next trail right by the two sights.
I visited this site summer 2015, the campsite and lake are beautiful and the lake is excellent for paddle sports. I was put off by it's incredible clarity though, the water was so clear and calm that you could see all the debris on the lake bed, but it was covered with a uniform grey layer of silt that gives the lake a very eerie quality. I had no luck fishing either.
The campsites are nicely sized with easy access to the water. The sites are far enough from each other for privacy. Water was clear. Not very deep but excellent for floating and fishing.
Launched our yaks and spent the afternoon soothing our souls. Very clear lake, clean. The campsites were well maintained and also clean.
No toilet. No water. Road going in sketchy. Random strangers in your camp at 2am. Had to scare them off with the 9mm. Lots of drug paraphernalia around.
