Fishlake National Forest

Satisfactorily clean. There was a propane heater which was nice. I was disappointed that the wood fired cook stove didn’t work. There was some firewood stored inside, and a lot of cut wood near the cabin; though after recent storms it was mostly too wet. A wood drying rack would be a nice addition. We had a great time.

Nice campground. Camp host was friendly.

Bathroom clean, camp area clean, host very helpful, beautiful setting, water spigot right across the street. Loved being next to/in Pando, perfect time of year for Aspen colors, all around great experience despite the rain and chill of the first two days.

This is a nice, well maintained high elevation campground. The sites were mostly level and spacious. I would recommend examining the layout of each site to be sure it meets your needs. A few of them were size- appropriate for RV’s but had the table/fire pit on the “wrong” side for this purpose. It was mostly quiet but somewhat close to the busy Highway 12. Most campgrounds in the area close very early in the season so it was nice to have one still open mid-September. Several people recommended the waterfall hike from the campground. It’s gorgeous scenery but be aware the trail is not maintained and the bottom half is very steep. The camp host was friendly and helpful. There were no issues with bears in the campground, I think a testament to the consistent handling of food and trash. The area has great opportunities for scenic driving on and off highway. Lots of cattle on and near this open-range highway.

Great area.

Lovely spot for viewing the Milky Way on a clear night. We enjoyed the small trail going through Pando that was accessible right next to the camp sites. The shoreline trail going further down the lake was also gorgeous. Would absolutely camp here again!
