The numbers that decide it
Recreation.gov publishes no site-level detail for this campground, so we cannot say what length of rig it takes. Call the managing office before committing to it in a large vehicle.

Antelope Lake Recreation Area
At 5,000 feet in elevation, Antelope Lake is located in the northeastern part of the Mt. Hough Ranger District. It is a small remote lake with 15 miles of shoreline. Surrounding the lake are mountains blanketed with pine and fir trees. Protected coves around the lake attract several species of migratory birds. This site is being managed by concessionaire Royal Elk Park Management. Please visit https://royalelkparkmanagement.com/plumas-nf for more information. Travellers can also stop in nearby communities such as Taylorsville, Greenville, Janesville, Milford and Susanville for ice and other supplies before you travel up the hill. Wood is for sale within campgrounds. Accessible sites are available.
