What Guests Are Saying

Brooklyn Lake Campground offers a beautiful and clean setting with excellent hiking and fishing opportunities, complemented by knowledgeable and friendly camp hosts. While it can be busy due to nearby trailheads and some sites have limited lake views, the overall facilities are well-maintained, and the campground is accessible and quiet. Some visitors noted a need for improved water access and the presence of private cabins limiting lake access, but the positive experiences far outweigh the negatives.

The campground was overall very nice. The campsites offered good picnic tables and were reasonably spaced apart. There are several hiking trails and several lakes to fish at. The outhouses were very well maintained with a good supply of toilet paper and hand sanitizer. While there were water pumps outside the outhouses, you really had to put a lot of muscle power to get water flowing. I was unable to do this at all. Having a better method would be helpful and give more accessibility to those who want/need water at the site. I would have appreciated an electrical hook up (even at an additional cost).

We were astounded by the beauty of the Brooklyn Lake campground as soon as we climbed out of the car. The pit toilets were the cleanest we have ever seen in all our years of pit toilet use (which tallies to many years). Cam and Walt, the camp hosts, came to greet us soon after we arrived and were absolutely lovely. Three young mule deer bucks wandered through the campground, which was very cool. We camped on 7/17 and there were still wildflowers all over the place. The accessibility of hiking from the campground is great--we only stayed one night and weren't able to take advantage of the proximity of the hikes, but from the signage they looked awesome!
