A roughly 20-mile dirt road leads to Medicine Lodge Lake Campground, set within Bighorn National Forest at an elevation that keeps the season short, running June through September. The campground sits near the lake and provides drinking water, toilets, and trash service, with space for big rigs. No pets are allowed. Anglers have direct access to the water, and Paint Rock Lake lies just down the road. The long drive filters out casual visitors, making this a reasonable choice for anglers or campers who want a lakeside site without a crowded trailhead atmosphere.
Description
Medicine Lodge Lake Campground is located in a remote setting on the shores of Upper Medicine Lodge Lake. Nearby trailheads offer access to the Cloud Peak Wilderness.
