What Guests Are Saying
Takhlakh Lake Campground offers stunning scenery, with beautiful views of Mount Adams and a serene lake, making it a lovely spot for camping and hiking. The campground is well-maintained, with clean facilities and friendly hosts. However, visitors should be cautious of wildlife, like rodents, and prepare for a rough drive in, as well as the requirement to pack out trash and bring their own water.

Excellent hosts. Cleaned the bathrooms and emptied trash multiple times a day. Best smelling camp restrooms I’ve ever experienced! The grounds were clean and quiet. Let’s keep it that way!

Continues to be our favorite campground. Well maintained and absolutely gorgeous. Worth all the planning and time it takes us to get there.

Some sites are very small and top of neighbors. Others are lovely! Make note that all photos online (ie. Google Images) of the site maps are wrong- the vague spot this program at Recreation.com places sites (ie. lake side, or internal to the loops) is correct, but the best you’re gunna get in determining site placement.

Very nice spot, great view and lots of trees. Downside is how folks will park in campsites for day use and not leave room for those with reservations. Campers also have a bad habit to drive to the bathroom and block the road for 10-15 min. USFS could use some more folks to keep up on folks behaving badly. Despite stage 2 fire conditions many still with open flames, again if you want the lake to keep looking pretty with trees, crack down on those people not paying heed to the extreme fire conditions. If you have a site near the water, lock things up, people walk through your campsite.

I was so impressed with this camp ground - the hosts were kind and kept the bathrooms clean and the lake was beautiful. We also had great neighbors! Really made our first camping trip as a family really nice!
