Scott Flat Campground

Not the best place for tent camping. Spent 3 nights here. 2 sites were $400 seems kinda high. Great lake and near endless trails!!! That was a positive. The huge negative was the bear activity. All the 3 nights constant bears going through the campground. Kinda scary as an adult but also had kids to worry about. The place just tells you this is bear country. Not much to go off of.

The huge negative was the bear activity. All the 3 nights constant bears going through the campground. Kinda scary as an adult but also had kids to worry about. The place just tells you this is bear country. Not much to go off of. No bear boxes and no dumpsters makes really difficult to put food away. This place is almost worse than yosemite.Yosemite. Final conclusion is we probably won't go back!

Scotts Flat Campground is the perfect place for a memorable experience. If you get lucky and it is not too crowded, it is even better!

The waterfront campsites are absolutely amazing. The view is gorgeo... Scotts Flat Campground is the perfect place for a memorable experience.

The view is gorgeous and convenient if you like to swim or have water toys. We enjoyed paddle boarding, fishing having bbqs, and smores.

Waters are muddy, quick sand-ish, restrooms are far few and require a nice hike to find. There is kayak rentals though, drive all the way down the road until it ends and you’ll see the camper trailer that has the rentals available. Reasonable pricing too! Only $60 for 2 hours (as of August 2025). Overall not a bad place to hang out with family or friends. Just be sure to pack plenty of food and wa...

Not a lot of shade along the lake waters.
