What Guests Are Saying
Fish Lake Campground offers a beautiful and secluded experience, with stunning views of the lake and plentiful wildlife, including trout fishing opportunities. Many campers enjoyed spacious sites, clean facilities, and peaceful surroundings, making it a great choice for those seeking tranquility. However, the campground's remoteness can lead to challenges like mosquito swarms and limited cell service, and some visitors noted the absence of a camp host to manage unruly campers.

The lake is BEAUTIFUL. Each campsite had a great view and lots of shade. Bring mosquito repellent. Our campsite had a hill to go up for a bit of privacy from the driveway. We had a bear stop by, so definitely lock up your food and anything scented (pets too! Our dogs scared it off though). The drive was amazing and Google maps wasn't too helpful, so follow the directions provided in your email.

Fish Lake NEVER disappoints! Well except for the millions of mosquitos! The Forest service people are so kind and friendly and do a great job of taking care of the place. The only negative response I have about it is the road leading to Fish Lake. It really needs to be cleared. It is CRAZY overgrown and in places it was barely wide enough for our truck.

Love this place! The campsites are nice and large, easily accommodating two tents. Each site is well separated from others and there was no noise (aside from some snoring) at night. Vault toilets are cleaner than a lot of gas station restrooms. Be forewarned that there are bears in the area and can mess with your stuff but they don't appear to be dangerous or very bothersome -- just remember to lock your food and toiletries in your car as no bear boxes are provided.

Very bad experience for us and we have been to many campgrounds. The camp sites are not well organised (close to each other and not flat) and it is very remote (the road to get there is not easy + 2 hours from Redwood). People there were very noisy until late and there was lots of mosquitoes.
