meadows!

Free. 17 sites, two different areas to choose from on either side of the lake. Accessible fishing dock. Vault toilets, picnic tables and fire rings. Trail around the camp ground that takes you threw the meadow and to a look out area which was pretty cool. The trail continues on to an old shelter that is also accessible by car.

little lake in washington

this is a nice secluded campgroynd. There is no running water so you must bring your own. You cant swim in the lake because of leaches but Lake Sullivan is a 15 nin drive. The best part about this campground is uts free!
