Blue Lake Campground - Temporarily Closed
Reviewed Aug. 11, 2021

Absolutely gorgeous but very popular

This is the stuff postcards are made of!! Limited sites available and most are right off the road/trail to the waterfall so privacy is out. I was surprised by the volume of hikers passing thru to view the falls and surrounding area, literally every 5-15 mins someone was walking by. Being a solo female camping with my pug I was okay with the company. I used my SUP on the shallow lake and relaxed in the hammock on the shore. Very, very cold 2 of the 4 nights and it took me a day to acclimate to the 11,000+ altitude. All in all I’d go back but it’s difficult to find a site, especially on the weekends.
