Upper Gresham Lake Campground — Northern Highland State Forest
Reviewed Jul. 8, 2021

Rustic and yet close to a fun small town

This campground is really close to Boulder Junction. It’s a fun town with lots of interesting things to do (We stumbled upon the weekly Lyons Club flea market and found some wonderful homemade jam and cookies) . The campground is rustic. We loved the sites along the lake. Site 1515 has a separate tent nook and it’s own short trail going downhill to the lakeshore. Vault toilets and water are available too. 

We loved the remote feeling here as well as being minutes away from town. The paved bike path passes nearby. We used it as a walking trail after a storm left trails wet.
