The road up to this campground is VERY steep--definitely smelled my brakes on the way down. But that's the only downside to this nice FREE campground just outside of LaGrande, OR. 

I had the whole place to myself mid-week in May. You're up high, so beautiful view of the sky. It's an easy walk around the lake and non-motorized boats are allowed. Locals fish here. 

I only stayed one night, but wish I had planned for more.
