Road to Snag Lake - Dispersed

Great camp spot for the night; would have gotten 5 stars had I been able to experience the view. The road in was a little bumpy and in some parts an incline but nothing my Ram 3500 and teardrop couldn’t handle. We followed recommendation from a previous review and followed the road until it ended for the best spot. It was a concrete pad so set up for the teardrop was easy. We were the only campers that we are aware of; very quiet night. No trash on site. Sadly due to the cloud coverage and rain we did not stick around for breakfast but imagine on a clear day a slow morning taking in the sights would be nice.

Front and 4WD ideal; site fit my 42 foot truck/camper very well.

Overall this was a great campsite. Very peaceful and quiet. We tent camped at the very end of the road at the top. Unfortunately we could see nothing but clouds this visit, but I would still come back! No photos since it was so foggy and misty. Not much for tent camping but better for cars or campers and very bumpy on the way up.

Amazing views and complete silence! Tons of rabbits and wildflowers.

Can’t recommend this place enough for a dispersed site. Road is gravel but in great condition, even passenger cars will be totally fine.

We stayed on a Friday night in August and were the only ones here.

Its true its a rocky wild road, but if you have front wheel drive you should be fine. Go all the way to the very end of the road for the best spot though. Its worth it!!

Not sure about parking near the towers, but seems a bit more secure… one of them has a camera for security.

This site is listed as free, but there is a sign at the entrance for a needing a discovery pass to use the site. Visit their website for payment options. You have to print the pass or write the transaction number on a paper and on your windshield.

Long steep gravel road to get here but good spot with great cell reception.

Very quiet. Spots for van or tent are between radio/cell towers, so doesn't feel like wilderness but there is the potential for spectacular views if the clouds clear. Site is up a decently maintained but long and steep gravel road, doable in a Prius but she was panting by the end. Only ones here on a Tuesday. Cement pad makes a flat tent site.

...other than the cell towers. At least I have great T-Mobile signal. Concrete pads at multiple sites. Nobody drove by all night.

There are several spots off the road around these radio tower stations and it is quite secluded. We didn't see any other person the whole time we were there. The spot we chose was the best as it is away from the towers and buildings, plus has a great view overlooking the valley and bay, and you can see the ocean between the peaks in the distance. The road getting here is a bit rough with lots of washboard, steep grades and rocks. But it's fun. No amenities, obviously, but there is a concrete pad from an old structure you can park on. Other sites have solid pack gravel covered by grass.

This spot was great for a night! Super quiet. There was some trash around the site and the road, so I picked up as much as I could. The view was misted over but beautiful anyway- however, in my little Nissan Versa, I struggled on the roads up and down. I eventually kept it around 5-10mph to avoid damaging my car, but I got there just fine and had no issues at the campsite. I've got T-Mobile and had full bars.

Excellent dispersed site next to electronic towers.

Great cell service! I was able to work remotely (teams calls) for 3 days with no issues. Also beautiful views! I went all the way to the top near the cell towers.

Perfect place to stay for a night. A lot of trash left behind by others though.

I have been coming here for 15 years had great times . Love the lakes snag and western. Stocked each spring with trout. So much fun for the kids to catch and eat them ..

Snag Lake and Western Lake Campgrounds were both full, so we explored and went to the top of the mountain/hill near the cell towers. It had cement for parking and seemed to be a viewing point so we called it good. Not sure if this is a “legal” campsite but it sure was beautiful.

in a clearing for solar power, surrounded by brush had has decent cell signal. seems to be a quiet road.
