Top 5 most beautiful campsite I have ever stayed at

Amazing hiking, camping, and fishing if you can make it to the lakes from the campgrounds. Atv 4x4 required to access lakes or a long hike. Well maintained several mile long dirt access road to campsite could be done in small campers. We tent camped in dispersed camping before the actual campground. Whole place to ourselves saw Elk, Deer. Only draw back to this site were the hawk sized mosquitoes.
