Some sites have lake views and each site has a paved parking spur, picnic table, campfire ring and grill. A pay phone, drinking water and accessible flush toilets are provided. The location makes it possible to discover all the activities and attractions at Huntington Lake, and it’s an excellent base for further exploration of the Kaiser Wilderness.
