Customer Reviews
Great dry campground. Plenty of space and lots of trees between spots. Feels very private. Each spot has a trailer spot and a tent pad. There are flushing toilets throughout the grounds and potable water spigots as well. I don't think any of the spots are directly on the lake but a short walk, quick bike ride or car ride down to the day use area is easy access to the water, very close. Red Fish Lake itself is awesome. Super clear water and gorgeous views of the sawtooths. Another nice thing is there are hiking / mountain biking trails throughout the campground. The town of Stanley is about a 10 min or so drive away that has some restaurants, a small mercantile and a gas station. Red Fish Lake Lodge is also a short bike / car ride away and they have aquatic rentals and a bar there along with a nice beach area. All in all, very nice campground and awesome lake. We will probably go back next year.
This campground is one of the most beautiful campgrounds you'll find; well maintained, clean, spacious with partial shade or full shade, the camp hosts, the Edmunds are doing a fabulous job at maintaining it! We were there over Memorial weekend, had spot#63 C loop and had a fantastic time!
This campground has very nice plots to rent with excellent facilities! It is a stones throw from the Goat Trail which has views that are totally worth the intense hike up to Goat Lake.
Beautiful campground in a gorgeous location. You likely won't get any cell service at the campground, but if you need free wifi, head over to the Lodge/General Store which is only a 5 minute drive away. The only downside with the campground is the toilets in the restrooms. They have to literally be the highest-off-the-ground toilets I've ever sat upon. I'm almost 6' tall and I felt like a young boy sitting on a toilet with my feet dangling towards the ground and my toes barely contacting the concrete floor below me. Not a comfortable experience. I totally get that they're trying to make these handicap friendly, but I think they got the measurements off by at least a few inches, especially compared to any other handicapped stall I've ever happened upon.
06/27/21 I have changed my rating. I am filing a comaint against the campground concessionaire after our visit last week. This is a great Campground. The Campground hosts are phenomenal. Lots of Wildlife very accustomed to humans that will walk right into your camp. Keep your food picked up and put away. Beautiful views of the Saw tooth mountains and redfish Lake. Walking distance to the lodge. I'm giving this a three solely based on the parking issues and the forest Service as well as the campground concessionaire they make extra parking very difficult and having extra vehicles or people who come and go throughout a long-stay everyone has to be documented in accounted for. I get that they have to account for people but they make it very difficult for their Campground host to keep track with all the paperwork that's required of them. We have come up with a solution with the spreadsheet so that they know who all is in our group and what areas are we parking in so they know whose cars are who s. It is ridiculous that you pay $8 a day to park the car in the campground and then drive three blocks down 2 North Point Beach where you have to pay another $8 to park there or if you go to Point Beach you have to pay a another $8 to park there. The Operators at Redfish Lake Lodge are phenomenal.
We camp here every year and love it. The view is fantastic. Glacier View is a peaceful area with facilities and running water. Walking distance to Redfish Lodge and Shop if you need anything or just want a meal and/or drink.
