Excellent Campground when closer Fish Lake campgrounds are full

We had a hard time finding a camping spot in June. Fish Lake campgrounds fill up so fast. Frying pan was convenient and well organized. They have tent and RV spots, water, picnic tables, and fire rings. There are not many trees for coverage from wind and I did not find wood for purchase directly at the campsite but there are small convenient stores about 7 min away around Fish Lake.

Scant on Amenities, But the View is worth it!

Went here over the weekend (car camping), and it was very nice! The view of the lake can't be beat, but the only on site amenities are flush toilets and water - for anything else like showers, etc, it's about a 10 minute drive in to lakeside or fish lake lodge.

This prime location provides visitors with easy access to the lake while being nestled in a scenic area known for wildlife viewing opportunities, including moose, deer, and elk.

What amenities are available at Frying Pan Camping Area?

Frying Pan Camping Area offers basic but functional amenities for campers. These include flush toilets, potable water, picnic tables, and fire rings. The campground accommodates both tent and RV campers with designated spots. However, there are no showers on-site, and visitors need to travel about 10 minutes to Lakeside or Fish Lake Lodge for additional facilities.

Do I need reservations for Frying Pan Campground?

Reservations are highly recommended for Frying Pan Campground, especially during peak season.
