About
There are developed campsite facilities all along the southeast, east side of the lake all along to the north end. There are two easily accessed car top boat launches, one at the southeast end and one on the north end of the lake. This lake offers excellent fishing opportunities.
Due to the 2021 White Rock Lake Wildfire, for public safety reasons, the site has had to be significantly salvage logged.
Road access. User-maintained site with no regular servicing. Facilities on file: boat launch, toilets, picnic tables, fire rings. First come, first served.

Travel up 15.7km up Jimmy FSR and then bear right onto Woods Lake Forest Service Road. It is 2.4km to the south end of the lake, but there are developed campsite facilities all along the east side of the lake to the north end.
