Perfect for backpacking the Fife Lake Loop!!
This is a first come, first serve campground. No reservations can be made. However, it is perfect for backpackers looking to complete the Fife Lake Loop. It's about 10ish miles north of the southern portion of the loop and is the perfect place to spend the night before continuing the loop the next day. The water is kept on all year long and there are pit toilets available. Many sites overlook Spring Lake and make for beautiful scenery. The fire pits are perfect for a nice evening fire to enjoy. You can drive in as well, including bringing an RV or camper. There is sufficient space between sites to ensure privacy and solitude.
