About South Shore

South Shore Campground is located along Suttle Lake, shaded by Douglas fir and Ponderosa pine. One section of the camp sits on the shoreline, while the other is nestled on a hillside. Most sites have lake views. The 3,400-foot elevation and the lake breezes make South Shore Campground a comfortable summertime destination.

Great campground, very big sites. The “biffy “ was pretty close to our site so there was a lot of foot traffic going through our camp otherwise I’d give it 5 stars

Great weekend at Suttle Lake. Was clean and quite by 9-10PM every night. Sites are spread apart nicely, and easy access to the hike/bike trail around the lake as well as water access. Only negative was that the bathrooms had a tough stench, but no flies. Will be back

Camp host was great and very helpful. There is a hiking biking trail around the lake that is very popular. We hiked the 1/2 mi to the boathouse and got ice creams.

We love South Shore for its proximity to home and the availability of a few great sites with easy lake access. This is a busier lake with lots of FAST motorized watercraft, but if you go mid-week or during non-holiday periods it mellows out. We are big fans of sites 17/18 for the size, lake "beach" access, and simple "pull up" trailer parking. The parking pad is fairly level, so we are generally able to stay hooked up which makes for an easier load out and departure. You could literally have 5 tents in one of these sites.
