Stayed here two nights and WoW! At about 9500ft this is an awesome alpine lake, campground, and fishing spot. Caught a limit of trout, hiked to cascade falls, and just relaxed in our very secluded camp sight (37). Vault toilets were immaculate and camp hosts were superb helping us know which sights were available when we arrived. We pulled our 25ft camper in no problem on the semi bumpy dirt road. Lake fishing is good from the dam and also from boat. It does not get more pretty than this place.
