Free BLM camping.  There are tons of sites, most right on the water.  Basically you can camp anywhere you want.  Big rigs are all over the place.  Make no mistake, this is a very popular place and the weekends are very busy.

Many families come in large groups with several campers and they bring their boats right up to the camp site.  

The views are stunning.  Hiking is in the national forest about a 1/2 hour drive south.  If you go in spring or late fall after Labor day, the crowds are significantly lower but if you're looking for solitude, this isn't the place.

The access road is narrow but easily passable by the biggest rigs.
