We stayed at 62. Not far from most things. But our site was infested with ticks. We’re leaving early because of this. (We brought the dog) other than that, it’s a great place.
Had a great view. Most campsites along the water have decent launches to the water. The further down the road, the more challenging the launch. There are a few campsites along the backside with zero access. We were virtually alone most of the weekend. The sites were slightly overgrown and a little buggy. But once we started our fire, they quickly disappeared. Also, having mosquito coils or thermacell is recommended. More gnats than mosquitoes. But seriously no fish to be caught in this lake. We didn’t see any topwater action(no fish jumping) at any point. Go there if you just want to have fun in your kayak, sup, or if you have kids. They’d enjoy it.
Take your bikes or buy a bus pass. Only some spots had a view. The camping is close. Pets are not allowed on trails in the park- only roads. The camp was kind of noisy. Come here for the Denali experience but know it does not start with this campground.
Such an awesome lake. We pretty much had the area to ourselves. The walk-in campsites are spacious. We had easy access to the lake. Trout were abundant.
