Fishing is great here

I come here every year at least once for the fishing and camping off the grid. Great place for the family and kids of all ages.

We arrived on a Friday afternoon with fingers crossed to get a walk-in campsite. We lucked out and got the last one! The camp host was wonderful! He sold us some wood, showed us the features of our site (we weren’t on the water, but very nearby with a great granite mound behind our site that made for some beautiful views) and told us a lot about the area. The campsite was clean, well laid out, very private, and nicely shaded. The bear box was quite large. It had a shelf, so some taller coolers might not fit well. We set up camp, grabbed our paddle boards, and headed out on the lake. It was absolutely gorgeous even at low water levels. The water was cold, but refreshing and very clear. There are granite islands to explore on the northern end that have great spots for jumping. The campsite was full, the day use area seemed full as well, but the lake wasn’t crowded anywhere. The restrooms are pit toilets, but the cleanest I’ve seen anywhere. Bugs weren’t terrible, but it was a very dry year. I think in a wetter year, mosquitoes could be an issue. All in all, I’ve been to lots of campgrounds, and I really can’t wait to go back to this one!

Blue lake!

This campground was nice. Clean outhouse style bathrooms, picnic tables, huge bear box, fire pit, all right near the lake. The camp manager was great and you can buy wood from him. Campground was quiet and mellow. Our spot was wooded and cute little ground squirrels darting about.

Great for exploring

Positives: First come first serve spots available on the water and you can also reserve a spot ahead of time. About 17 campsites. Very RV friendly, there were more RV’s there than tents when we went. VERY quiet campground. Camp host is awesome! Bathrooms are pit toilets and SUPER CLEAN. Pack a lunch and head down the road to explore the other lakes going up towards Upper Blue Lake-you will NOT be disappointed. We walked about 35-45 minutes and found another body of water that nobody was occupying. Pictures attached. We will be going back!

Negatives: Being this close to the water we were constantly being bothered by mosquitos. Bring a screened in tent for eating or bring tons of big spray!
