About

US Forest Service campground. Campground is closed due to 2017 Uno Peak Fire above the campground. Potential for catastrophic; flash floods is high. This boat-in campground offers a floating dock with a six boat capacity. There are four tent sites, two fire rings, two tables, and one vault toilet. This site has year round access and is a good shelter from both up and down lake winds. Pack out what you pack in.
