Angel Lake is a pretty site, with a glacial cirque background illuminated by the morning sun. The access road is steep and has many sharp turns. It's probably not suitable for 5th-wheel or similarly large rigs. It wasn't difficult for our SUV pulling a 16-foot trailer. There aren't tall trees for shade, but smaller trees make the campsites relatively private. The only drawback was lack of water.

Beautiful location with well maintained campsites. The pristine lake is easily accessed for a cool dip in the water. Although our campsite was conveniently located near the water pump and toilets, it was private and our only views were of the mountains around us. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

It’s a beautiful lake and the view is fantastic. It’s not an easy way to get there. We have a 17 ft trailer we pulled and it’s gnarly drive going up and going down. It’s a hidden treasure but it’s been discovered by everyone. There’s a lot of people from all over. We were lucky to stayed a couple nights to relax and enjoy the scenery.

Gorgeous views, clean camp sites. Very well maintained outhouses and the camp host was really friendly and courteous. Always made sure everything was in good working order and asked if we needed anything
