Free Camping, Lovely views

Grove lake is a lovely free camping area with flat dirt areas that would accommodate a camper or tent. No hookups but hydrants, Vault toilets, fire pits, and picnic tables exist.

Nice camping trails exist, mostly for access to the trout stream that feeds the lake.

This is a lovely place to hike, fish, kayak, paint, or just get in touch with your maker.
