You can drive all the way into the site, there's vaulted toilets. This is a massive, lakeside site. There's a boat ramp across the lake and plenty of other sites in the area, however it does feel pretty secluded. Beautiful spot for the northern lights. Don't be like the people before us and leave litter everywhere or burn things that aren't meant to be, but have fun!

Vert beautiful and extremely private campsite! I booked site 1 a few days before we planned on arriving (Sept). Site 1 does not have a toilet so plan accordingly however the trade off for being completely alone and far away from the other sites is well worth it.

Campsite was amazing, the road has a lot of larger rocks in it and they are sharp, one went through our tire on the way into our site. The lake was very clear, fishing this year was not good at all. Wasn’t able too catch very many in the 2 weeks we were there. All in all we will be back!

2nd visit to Lyman Lake. Campsite #5 exactly as advertised. Huge, clean. Primitive toilet was completely acceptable. Good bluegill fishing from shore and excellent sandy bottom swimming. For extended stay dump station is 25 mins away at Indian Lake SP. Supplies about 15 mins away at Linda’s Bread box. Take a week and enjoy.

Would be nice to have an outhouse on site 10 where we camp often. Also laying some gravel down like the other campsites would help with the dirt.

Was a great Memorial Day weekend. Kids went swimming, played catch, and roasted smores. We celebrated a couple Birthdays with some company.

Stayed at Site 1 and I have absolutely no complaints. Great site with a beautiful view of the water. Private area with lots of trails. Picnic table was like new & the fire rings has a little grill on it. Cell service is spotty but you can get full bars at the store 25mins up the road along with firewood and anything else you may need.

We were in site 4. On the plus side, it was semi-private and very scenic. Also the site has an outhouse nearby. On the less positive side, it is not directly on the lakeshore. Also, signage directing you to the sites continues to be an issue.
