About Ferry Lake Campground

Ferry Lake Campground is a 9-unit fee campground located off the beaten path, but easily accessible campground that offers tranquil camping and good lake fishing. Each campsite has a parking spur, table, and fire ring. The campground has a mix of nice tent sites, camper/van sites, and small motorhome/trailer sites. Large RVs are not recommended due to the size of the turn-around at the end of the campground road. There are two outhouses and a boat launch for small watercraft. With its handful of small shaded campsites and a ban on internal combustion engines, the lake is quiet enough to hear ducks and loons calling to each other across the lake. The lake is regularly stocked with catchable-size Rainbow Trout. Late spring to early summer is the best time to fish this secluded and serene location. Two-pole fishing is allowed, but to protect breeding loons, it is unlawful to use lead…
