What lake. Completely dry in early September. Nice boat launch, but no water. Plenty of camping sites, where are all the campers?
Jared Alleman
Stopped by for a photo op on Friday the 13th. Glad we made the trip early before traffic, because the road to get there is extremely narrow.
Jon Verbeck
Beautiful campground with plenty of room between spaces. There's not a lot of trees between the campgrounds, so if you're looking for privacy, this likely isn't the campground for you. It's only a short walk to Crystal Lake from the campground.

This is a beautiful campground with it's very own little lake that is fed by a natural spring, the water is crystal clear! There are many spots, but they are spaced far enough apart to have a comfortable experience.

Beautiful area but the lake is currently all dried up. It's been an awfully dry and hard hit area. Maybe next year.
