About Dewey Lake Campground Shoreline Sites

The Dewey Lake Campground Shoreline Sites is a primitive campground and the only U.S. Army Corps of Engineers campground at Dewey Lake. The campground is open from April 20th - October 31st. There are two ways to access this campsite, either by boat or walk-in. The views from these shoreline camping sites are like no other and allow you to connect with nature through so many activities. Some of them may include, but are not limited to swimming, fishing, campfire bonding festivities, wildlife viewing, and hiking. While staying at one of these 10 sites you may see various species of birds and waterfowl, some white-tailed deer, and the ocassional river otter. Additionally, in the early fall season this location boasts one of the most breathtaking sceneries of fall foilage that Dewey Lake has to offer. We take pride in taking care of our area that way it retains its beauty for years to come and we advise that all of our visitors to do the same. We hope you enjoy this area as much as we do!
