West Lake

 We actually drove up the drive by accident & found we were in the campground. The sites looked very nice. A long row of them with a nice view of the lake. These are the sites to get.

  This is Forest Service, so don't expect things like showers. There's a path around the lake & it's used by people fishing too. 

Although it didn't seem as busy as Dowdy Lake, it's busier than Lake Bellaire, which I loved. 

We visited West Lake Campground, no overnight stay.

Great view of the lake. Very quiet. Paths and fishing. Nearby local amenities.

Not one bad campsite. Few first come first serve. Most sites require reservations until Sept. Very clean and well maintained. Camp hosts are wonderful.

We stayed for two nights. We love that this campground is quiet, spaced out and fairly small. It’s perfect for our young family.

Well maintained and in the middle of a few great fishing spots

Great campsite with plenty of space from neighbors. The camp host do an immaculate job maintaining, I watched them cleaning a site next to ours and they really care for the campground. Bathrooms are clean. The water is nice, a bit crowded with fishers and there’s a No Swimming policy. Electric hook up and flat parking for campers. It close to the road so you can hear traffic but it’s not too loud

Saw snakes, blue birds, chipmunks, cranes.

West Lake campground is a beautiful spot off 74. The lake is great for fishing, and the tent campsites are super private. Your pass includes access to other lakes in the surrounding area as well.

We didn’t see any moose but we could definitely hear them early in the morning.

Clean bathrooms and great, friendly hosts!

The host have been there the last 4 years I know of such nice people. It’s hard to get a spot here unless you reserve a spot 6 months ahead. Great Lake to hike around and fish.
