Lake Jeanette Campground & Backcountry Sites

Quiet Campground with plenty of wooded area between campsites for privacy. Mix of RV/Travel Trailers and Tent campers. Vault toilets and drinking water available. Our site did not have direct clear access to the water, but we walked past other sites that did. Boat launch available right at the entrance to the campground. Our site fit our 30’ travel trailer with left slide just fine and plenty of room for the truck. Overflow parking available near the campground entrance for a small fee. Clean and well kept! Would definitely recommend

This campground is a forest campground so while there is a vault toilet and solar powered water, it is just that. Not fancy, not frilly.  If you are used to camping this way it's perfectly fine. But if you are not, this might not be the right spot for your family.

That said - we are used to it and it's exactly what we expected and wanted. 

Sites have plenty of privacy between them - this campground was established a long time ago and actually, many many years ago this are was used as a CCC camp! Little bits of evidence are around if you look for them.  That said - lots of space, lots of mature trees and bushes (even this time of year post autumn)

We were in site 5 which had a parking space and then a short walk (lightly downhill) about 20 feet to our picnic table and fire ring in a large area under a giant pine tree with a gorgeous view of the lake! Nice little path to the next site over where our buddy was staying with his dogs.

We had our teardrop to sleep in, but there was no problem getting it backed in (larger RVs might have issues since space is more limited than at giant RV campgrounds). It's $20 to stay with an honor system pay box and that helps keep the sites maintained - I think it's totally worth it.

We had a fire ring with plenty of space for chairs, lots of space for dogs, a lake if we needed to filter water (easy to get to if it's not frozen) and was very quiet.  There were definitely spaces that were better for "wind blocks" than others so check em out when you arrive.  For this time of year ours was good. There was a HUGE boulder the size of a small house in our buddy's site that blocked the wind so it was great.

This is a small campground but so beautiful. We stayed at site 7. It consisted of "two areas" which was super cool. The "lower level" was where we parked with a decent driveway. It also had the picnic table and fire pit with a gravel area for a tent pad. The "upper area" was up a small hill and there was the amazing view overlooking Jeanette lake. There was a huge rock outcropping overlooking the lake and an area for our 8 woman tent. We had views of the lake from bed. So beautiful! The mosquitoes weren't too bad except right at dusk. The vault toilets were not the best and the sites were rather close but with the right site you wouldn't even know it. Sites 6 and 7 both have the "two areas" with more secluded areas you could tent. Site 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10 all have some level of water access. The people at sites 8 and 9 had kayaks/canoes pulled right into their site. Site 7 has the best overview of the lake but no direct water access. The best part...the loons and ducks at dusk and dawn. One of my favorite things.

Super simple campground with only a few sites and two walk in sites. The walk in sites are perfect! The flights were a bit bad but nothing huge. Several sites are reservable and others are first come first serve. Watching the storms come in across the lake was well worth it!

This is one of the prettiest places I've ever been. The campground is small and quiet. Each site has a beautiful lake view. Site 5 has the best view, but it's not reservable. We reserved site 6 and it was gorgeous, spacious and had just a few steps down to gorgeous Jeanette Lake. I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay here. Vault toilets were kept clean.

It's pretty amazing to wake up right next to the lake.

There are about a dozen sites here. Some are reservable, but most are first-come first-serve. Camp sites have a table and fire ring with grate. Vault toilets are within walking distance.

Camped here in early July and had no issues getting a secluded tent site. Beautiful area with sort walks throughout the campground and down to the lake.
