Great place to get picked up or dropped off for a Chelan Lakeshore Trail hike.
Really well maintained dock, a bit high, but at least not falling apart as some other ones on the lake...
What an experience to make a stop here on our boating trip on Lake Chelan. We were the only peeps at the camp. Stayed an ate lunch on the dock. What a great spot for us Californians. We had a great time here at Lake Chelan.
