Summary
Sites include picnic tables, fire rings with grills, and vault toilets; however, there is no potable water or hookups. RVs are allowed, but the access road can be rough—best for smaller rigs. Reservations aren’t required; sites are first-come, first-served with a modest nightly fee. Surrounded by pine forest and nestled beside the lake, the campground provides a peaceful, secluded vibe ideal for fishing, boating, and hiking. Nearby trails include the Deadwood Ridge Trail. The best time to visit is summer (June–September), when roads are open and weather is mild.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
