Weekend Trip to The Trout Lake Campground
Had a great time on the campsite, cute little camper & easy kayak access to the water. The shower house & bathroom area were also not that far of a walk and we’re well kept. I would camp here again!

My husband and I stayed for the weekend and absolutely LOVED the property! Plenty of space, very private and an amazing view. The (mini) beach is perfect and also very private. I can’t wait to bring more of my family with next time. Matt was an amazing host and got back to me every time I reached out, ASAP. We will definitely be back!
