Lakeside Campground CLOSED

Lakeside Campground is closed to camping, day visitors, vehicles, and boats (launching/retrieval). This is because of water service and associated critical infrastructure failure.

Boat launching is available from the main boat ramp, next to Herb Fitzroy Day Visitor Area.
