Beautiful views

Amazing spot with some great views road past the gate a bit rough but nothing any 4x4 can handle. Very peaceful and secluded. Watch out for Siberian tigers, house cats and sugar gliders. I would recommend bringing at least one can of beans. Again please he aware of the crazy tigers. Also land leaches and water rats. As long as you bring ham and cheese you should be fine (tigers are scared of ham duhh) anyway bring your family here maybe a cousin or two.

Very rough road, beautiful views, be aware of cliff.

Once you are past the gate, the road becomes very rough. Do not pass the gate if your vehicle doesn’t have 4WD. The tundra made it, but not very comfortably and took about 30 mins to get down to site- the road is about 1/2 mile long. If you wanted, you could just park near the gate and hike down the road. Once you reach the camping area (no marked sites) the views are beautiful, but be very careful and aware of the cliff. It’s a pretty cool spot, very secluded, and free. Convenient considering all other campgrounds in the area are paid, crowded, and the views aren’t anything special.

This road leads to nowhere

We tried to follow the GPS coordinates but the road leads to a dangerous cliff edge full of rocks, not passable by cars. We had to turn around.

Beautiful View of the Lake

The tent site area wasn't where we stayed but there are 3 cabins just above the boat docks that have the most beautiful view to wake up to in the morning. The cabins shared a fire pit between the 3 cabins and the cabins were close together but far enough apart for privacy. Tbey each had their own private bathrooms also so no walking in the dark to the bathrooms at midnight
