Primitive weekend campground with lake access.
Primitive weekend campground with lake access.
Primitive tent-camping park on the south end of Canyon Lake with direct lake access at each campsite. North Park is a weekend-only, seasonally open USACE campground with basic amenities, and it is also used by scuba divers looking for shore access to the lake. The bluff-top setting keeps it simple rather than polished: tent-only sites, vault restroom, water fountains, picnic tables, fire rings, and no weekday day-use access.
