SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Forested sites with graveled pads and fire pits make Brown Barrel a drive-in campground worth considering for campers who want separation from neighbors. Sites are dispersed across the wooded property, and the layout gives each site some buffer. Flush toilets are on-site, though at least one reviewer noted the water supply ran out by the end of a multi-day stay. Pets are allowed, fires are permitted, and reservations are available. Campers exploring campgrounds near Loon Lake will find this a relatively low-key option in northern Washington's lake country, with Winona Beach Resort among the nearby alternatives if a lakefront setting is the priority.

Wonderful secluded dry camping

Beautiful secluded spot. Plenty of forest and space.  Only issue was the toilet ran out of water on the last day but other then that perfect site!

Beautiful wooded sites

Our family rented the entire campground for the weekend. Sites were dispersed nicely for privacy. Beautiful woods, nicely graveled with fire pits. Loved that there was a flush toilet ! Hosts were helpful and accommodating! Would definitely recommend!
