Primitive - no water/restrooms/rough road
I made it up to the lake in July. There were too many ppl for the small campground on this weekend. Surprised because the road was very rough and there is no water/electricity and there are only two picnic tables. Beautiful!!! It's just very out of the way and it's first come first serve and you never know when there will be too many ppl. There are only 5 sites on the lake. Good luck getting a camping site because it's a long road back out if the campground is full.
As dispersed as it gets
Absolutely beautiful area. Plenty of campsites around the small lake that are right up next to the water, but to get the good spots, It's first come first serve. The water is pretty cold and crystal clear when we were up there at the beginning of June.
Things to expect:
You're about two hours away from any cell service.
The road to get up is all rocks and off-road going up a mountain. 4x4 with traction tires is a must. Kit up. Have a satellite phone, and expect to drive through snow up there at the beginning of June.
Location
