Anyone been there.

We might use this the night b4 we enter ep16.

Drawbacks are that it is small with only two sites and no reservations, so its first come first camp.

Our other option would be lake Jeanette, which we have used b4. Meander is just too close not to consider.

Thanks.

I've never stayed over night, but I've fished and had many picnics there and got married there. We always had the lake to ourselves.

Is there water there to fill up water bottles or would we have to purify.

According to the Forest Service web page you will have to purify. (Water: None available.)

Just fill some jugs at home and use them for water.
