Bumping Lake Campground

Spent a couple nights camping and fishing. Very good campground. Had water and vault toilets, Level parking pads. Shore fishing access at top campground area and near boat launch. Shallow water in those areas. Kayak or boat would have been MUCH better.

We came here in August and were blessed with the weather. All 3 days that we stayed here were sunny and hot. Because the campground is located near the water, the children swam in the lake each day. I also found a small river nearby and the children enjoyed learning how to fish.

This campground was gorgeous, but very popular and busy on the weekend. The sites were pretty well spread apart though, so we didn’t hear much from our neighbors and most people were respectful of the quiet hours. We got there earlier in the week and were able to find a first come first serve site. It currently costs $22 per night here, which I felt was fair since the bathrooms were well maintained and we could walk to the lake. The only reason this place didn’t get 5 stars was because there was a drowned rat in the drain of the potable water by our site… no one noticed it and it remained there all weekend. The previous campers in our site had left trash all over as well, we picked up a ton of it but we noticed a lot of people hadn’t been picking up after themselves. Here’s your gentle reminder to leave it better than you found it when camping in our national forests! We all know they’re severely underfunded and understaffed so every bit helps!

This campsite is very nice, and very well maintained. Great trails for hiking and good fishing at bumping lake.

Great place to take the family for camping or just the day. Always enjoy taking our kayaks out on the lake to explore.

Very clean and spacious campground. We came up on Wed without reservations and were able to find a spot for our 36ft rv without any problems. Lots of FCFS spots. They did fill up by Friday. Lake is clean and warm enough to swim in and spend a whole day in the water. Great for paddling and canoeing in the am or evening. Lots of jetski and boats on weekends during the day. If you paddle west, you can see Mt. Raineir from the lake. No fish in the lake this July of 2022. This lake is located in the jet fly by area, so be prepared to hear very loud jets several times a day, their are kinda cool to watch over the lake, but oh so loud! Sounds like hell breaks loose. Also no birds in this area, which feels weird. Mt. Raineir national park is about 1.5 hours away. There is a cool dirt road that starts from the campground entrance. Fun for ATVs and dirk bikes. Many roads to explore. Lots of creeks and wildlife around. Including cougars, deer. Dump station is in the campground, free for campers. No fresh water fill up.

Wow what a pretty lake! Picnic tables and a restroom are there but you may want to bring an extra roll and some hand wipes.

So beautiful. Peaceful Campsites are gorgeous and private. #10 and #8 & #9 have you right on the lake. Amazing

Been going here for many years now. Great place to spend a few days in the woods. The lake is great for swimming and the island is always fun to visit.

We love to go here with the family in late August. We pull in on a Sunday night and feel like we have the campground to ourselves. The campsites and bathrooms are clean and well maintained.
