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.

Beautiful, quiet little campground. The lake is peaceful and really pretty, and you can’t beat the view of Mt. Adams!

It was fun and a nice rural getaway butttt I paid $10 on top of $40 for booking to change the date of my reservation and someone was in my spot when I got there… at first I thought someone took my spot but my name was not on the campsite but instead said the person was paid through the next day. I was able to find the last site that wasn’t reserved yet and told the person there wahr happened but I would love a refund for at least my $10 change fee since I paid $50 to not have my spot when I could’ve pulled up and paid $22 for the spot I found.

It is a great campground, beautiful and peaceful. The sites were generally private and ample in size. The hike around the lake is nice, more of a stroll but well worth it. As well, the trail from the lake up to Tahk Tahk Meadows and the lava field is equally easy and well worth the time.
The gravel section of the road on the way up could use some maintenance to shave down the endless washboards. Not sure how often that gets scheduled but I'd say it needs it now.

Love this place. Been there a couple of times what a view and nice campgrounds. No water there so make sure to bring your own.

Someone was in our campsite at 5 PM. Nobody around, camp host was not there until the next day. Lucky there were some open sites available.
