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.

Busy campground with mice, flies and mosquitoes. We will be looking elsewhere next year...

Beautiful campground - you can’t beat the view. Be ready for mosquitoes and deer flies in June/July.

Great place to camp in September. Except for the invasion of daddy long leg spiders on a tent! Lake is beautiful.

Never going back. Was incredibly noisy and people had no respect for other guests. Whether someone chopping wood at midnight or getting woken by screaming kids at 5 AM. Overall a very unpleasant experience. If you want peace, relaxation and people being thoughtful, do not come here.

Very clean campground, not crowded when we were there. Beautiful view of Mt Adams! Quiet. I hope the weather is clear if you go there. Very nice quiet lake.

The campground was nice, clean, and well maintained, and the lake is beautiful and clean. We stayed at the far end of the loop where the sites are large and relatively private. The lake is great for kayaks and fishing. Several nice hikes in the area. On the second day, we got caught in a massive thunderstorm, which is unusual for the beginning of August. No fault of anyone, just a freak act of nature.
