Antelope Lake is one of the more remote, quiet lakes in the Sierra Nevada's Plumas National Forest, making it a popular destination for anglers and explorers of all abilities.
Recreation
Due to its prime location on the lake, Long Point is known for great bass fishing. Sailing and other boating activities are also popular at Antelope Lake.

With Antelope Lake adjacent to the campground on three sides, most sites have a view of the water. Tables and campfire rings with grills are provided, as well as vault toilets and drinking water.
