Nice big campsite. On one of the turns going in would be nice for the bigger trailers to remove a tree on each side. Would differently recommend and will be back to visit.

Flush toilets, lit bathroom. Nice quiet fall camping experience on the lake.

Not as close to the Selkirks as the east shore would be, for the adventurous folks. But for a relaxed stay, it's perfect.

Great place to stay at Priest Lake. Path along the lake is very scenic. We really enjoyed having time with the camp host - John. He and his wife are delightful. Be aware your campsite could be next to private homes - this comes with typical late evening lawn mowing, wood cutting with chain saws, etc.

I love Outlook! The camp host was extremely helpful and welcoming, which made me feel like part of the Priest Lake family. This is a very special place in the world and I look forward to coming back year after year.

It was the 3rd time we spent time at Outlet Bay this year. The camp host there is very sweet and helpful. Bathrooms have flush toilets and soap at the sink.
