Customer Reviews
Amazing spot. Camping is fairly limited, it was totally full by 4:00pm so I just walked about 100 yards past spot #12 where the unfinished log house is. I camped exactly where the 'Crate Lake Campground' is marked on google maps, pic attached. A little rough but best view in the area. A bit smoky due to nearby fires.
I would give it a 5 star if you could reserve it but when we went we were outside of the reservation period and it was first come first serve. People that camped anyway we're facing $100-300/person fees so we ended up hiking back to an area that we could camp in. The views are worth the hike for sure, but I would not recommend going during the fall when you can't reserve it.
Gorgeous lake! Camping is also very convenient. If you have a permit, of cause
Beautiful Campground, pretty crowded while we were there.
So beautiful one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen.
