Horseshoe Lake Campground

πŸ“Œ Washington πŸ“ 46.309572,-121.566608
I visited Horseshoe Lake Campground  in July of 2013 and the information here is accurate as of that date. Horseshoe Lake Campground is on the shore of beautiful Horseshoe Lake a few miles from Mount Adams. The area is covered with heavy forest although there are grassy meadows with blue wildflowers scattered about. Activities include fishing, hiking, camping, photography and many come to climb at least part way up Mt Adams.

Swimming
There is no designated swimming area and the lake is more of a "fishing" lake but I am sure many a camper plays in the lake to keep cool.
Wildlife
Deer and elk live in these woods as do black bear. Bear were sighted in the area in 2013 but none in a campground.

Fees & Res.
The daily fee is $12 plus a $6 extra vehicle fee if you bring a 2nd vehicle. These fees were as of July 2013. No reservations, first come first served. This campground is popular, I would encourage you to come up Thursday or Friday to get a site.
