What Guests Are Saying
Blue Lake Campground offers a fantastic location with excellent facilities and helpful campground attendants, providing a clean and well-maintained environment. The wildflowers are a highlight, and fishing at Blue Lake is enjoyable. However, the area is very windy, making tent camping challenging; it’s recommended to use hard-sided campers or RVs instead.
