Free and Dispersed Lake Acess

Dispersed camping sites spread along the shoreline provide direct vehicle access to the lake, with campers able to park right at the water's edge. The area lacks trees and offers minimal firewood gathering opportunities, though large bushes provide some sun relief during the day. Recent visitors have reported toxic algae bloom warnings posted around the lake, and mosquito activity can be intense immediately upon arrival.

Multiple vehicles can accommodate the wide-open layout, making this spot workable for larger groups seeking lakeside access. Campers looking for more developed amenities might consider Spring Creek Campground less than a mile south, which offers more traditional camping infrastructure without the insect pressure reported at this dispersed location.

Lake side

Beautiful lakeside camping. Can park vehicles directly on lakeside. No trees very little to nothing for scavenging firewood. But does have very very large bushes for some sun relief.

Currently has Toxic Algae Bloom and Busy

Toxic algae bloom warnings and evidence currently posted around the area. Pretty. Car got pelted by mosquitoes seconds after pulling up to the last available campsite. Left immediately and stayed at the nearby campground with no mosquitos.
