Fishing
Lucky Peak Lake has a variety of fish species, various trout, bass, crappie and others. Check the regulations here.
Boating
Boating is the main attraction here. There is a boat ramp with several docks for your use.
Recreation
The big attraction here is the water, whether it is fishing or skiing. During warm weather the marina is always full and that does not seem to be a drawback. Depending on the water level, there are sandy beaches for sunbathing and fun. A small beach and swimming area near the middle of the campground has benches and play toys for kids.
Wildlife
You will often see deer coming down to the lake to drink and there are many bird species to view.

Camping is free on sites that are not reserved for up to a three day limit, but may be extended if no reservations are due to arrive. All sites are reservable through recreation.gov for $10 per night and include one reserved parking stall. One site, number 6, is a larger site better for groups for $20 per night and has two assigned parking stalls. There are no reservable day use facilities.
