Lake James SP Campground
Stayed 2 nights in June 2016 at site 007. This is a lovely little campground set on the shores of James Lake. Sites are big enough for 2 small tents or 1 largish family tent. All sites have a picnic table, fire pit with grate, and bear box. The sites are very level and well maintained. Water spigots and trash bins are easily accessible. The bathrooms are clean. The women's room had 3 showers. Firewood is available for sale on site by the camp host for $5 - but the bundles seemed quite small. We needed 2 bundles for a night's fire. The only possible negative which is only negative if, like me, you take too much stuff, is that it's quite a walk from the parking area to the campsites. And it's downhill from the car to the sites. There are 2 wheelbarrows available for use, but navigating a wheelbarrow full of camping gear down a hill with stairs (or back up at the end of your stay) isn't easy. Make sure you plan accordingly! The site I was in did not have access to the water so we went through another empty site and climbed down a short drop (hanging onto tree roots) to access the lake. There is a dock we didn't go to and a public swimming beach a short drive away.
