This campground is one of our favorites. It’s quiet and secluded enough from any towns. This campsite has beautiful views and hiking trails on Goose Lake. The best part was the cows all around. They are fun to watch! We do believe we had a bear visit us one night in camp, so always make sure you’re packing away food at night. Definitely recommend for a more secluded and relaxed campsite.

Very remote, but there's a lot of great campgrounds in the area. We stayed away from paid campgrounds and continued into dispersed free camping by the lake. The lake is marshy and has lots of cow dung, but it's fine for kayaking or paddle boarding. Our campsite was by a creek that led into the lake. Plus, a herd of cows came by our tent. We woke up in the morning to a couple of them munching on some grass nearby. Really cool experience.

Great spot. Be advised, 6.5 mile dirt/gravel/washboard road in. At night DONT miss the quick right turn into the campground just past the creek and cattle bridge. Google Maps will tell you there is another entrance, there is not! No fun backing a trailer in the dark! We were here mid week, all by ourselves for a day and the just a couple of other campers. Host is super nice! Pro tip, there is a snow sports parking area (great Mtn bike trails)before heading up or the ski resort to pull off and sleep if your coming very late and this is your first time up. Most sites are good, next time if it’s dark we will spend the night at the boat ramp as you will most likely need to do some leveling on an a trailer.

Fantastic spot! Extremely clean. Plenty of room between spots. Camp host (Jill) is amazing - extremely knowledgeable, funny, super helpful. Trees, lake, fresh air, oh... and more trees.

Awesome place to camp! I stayed at the north end of the lake and absolutely loved it. Quiet, and very dark at night with very little light pollution. My little car made it through the unpaved road just fine. Will absolutely be staying here again!
