Every site here is listed for one vehicle. Agencies differ on whether a truck and the trailer it tows count as one or two, so this may not affect a fifth wheel — but it does decide whether a second car can come. Worth a call before you rely on it.

At 10,730 ft, expect nights below freezing well into June, water systems shut off outside a short summer window, and a long climb to get here. Nothing published says when it opens — call before you tow.

Getting there

What the agency says about the road in. For a long rig this is often the binding constraint — a site that fits is no use behind four miles of shelf road — and none of it appears in the campsite data.

Unpaved approachTurn on Highway 250 and travel 18 miles on a gravel road to Lake Fork Campground.quoted from the driving directions
