Snag Lake Campground

Cool little lake. Some campsites are very open. Good for groups. Rough road up depending on route and vehicle. Highly recommend 4x4, especially if it's been raining.

Requires a Discovery Pass, but with it the camping is free! Lots of kayakers and folks that come fishing during the day, without staying the night. There's only two camping spots that can also host a car, the rest are pack-in only. The road to get here is very rocky, and though I made it in my little front-wheel-drive car it was a steep trek that gave me some concern. Go slow! There is a vault toilet that had paper in it, but I'm not sure how often it gets restocked as it was down to 1 paper roll by Friday morning. The trash outside it was also completely overfilled. And, alas, though the site says everyone must pack out their trash, we found quite a lot of garbage scattered around the campsites. Had to be careful about the shore edge too, as there's a lot of fishing equipment - especiall

Beautiful setting but so many people litter their cans, bottles, wrappers along the lake trail and trail between lakes. We ran out of room to carry it all out :-( Please consider bringing a garbage bag to collect trash you find and let’s clean this place up.

Excellent campground - well kept, there is one pit style bathroom (like a permanent port-a-potty), no power, or running water utilities. Great trail around the lake. There are several really nice campsites. The lake is on the smaller side. Has fish. Saw several people fishing. Big enough to canoe or kayak around. Not super deep water. Very nice, easy access. Requires Discover Pass for parking. Gravel road is good, a bit rough in places, any normal car is fine. A lowered car would need to be careful.

Snag Lake is a pond, to be clear, and quite popular with fishermen. You'll find a day use parking area, as well as two sites for vehicle campers with picnic tables and fire rings that are quite close to one another. A single vault toilet is of the standard forest service variety. The two-mile access road is a steep, but relatively well maintained gravel road. There's a nice foot trail with several walk-in campsites that circles the lake just inside the treeline. Another trail leads to nearby Western Lake (also a pond) which has its own lakeside loop with campsites. Taken together, these trails make for a nice hike of about two miles roundtrip. There are also miles of forestry roads and numerous informal campsites to explore on this tract of DNR lands, so it's definitely an area worth chec
