Pristine and Quiet Lakefront Campsite - but Bring your Bug spray!

While my husband trekked up Mt Adams, I sat and enjoyed this peaceful lake with beautiful scenery.

There is a tent only loop and an RV/Tent loop. We stayed in the tent only loop and were lucky to snag a spot on the lake side. (Sites 47 to 51). There were peek-a-boo views of the lake and the mountain from here, but no direct access to the lake. you have to go back on the path for that.

Note that most of these sites you park your car and haul your stuff to your site. There are some lakeside sites on the RV side, but I didn't stay over there. It seemed there were TONS of kids on that side though so if you want a little more quiet, I would go for the tent-only section.

The campground has a lake access, where you can bring a raft to float and enjoy the views.

The ONE issue with this site is the mosquitoes. There are LOTS so dousing yourself in DEET is a must to have a pleasant experience here.
