Acorn Womans Lake Campgrounds are nestled in a mixed-conifer forest on the banks of Acorn Womans Lake. The facility provides remote spread-out tent-only campsites that are reachable via foot trails. The unique, remote setting offers visitors stunning scenery and access to a multitude of recreational opportunities with a campsite far enough from other campsites. Some campsites are up to 0.8 of a mile from parking area, some are closer. Forest Service vault toilets are spread out and a short walk away.
Hiking and fishing top the list of recreational opportunities at Acorn Womans Lake Campground. Two mountain lakes, a river and a handful of hiking trails are accessible from the campground.
Anglers enjoy the remote location and scenic backdrop of two natural lakes, providing excellent fishing opportunities for coldwater and warmwater species. Acorn Womans Lake sustains rainbow and cutthroat trout, yellow perch, brown bullhead and black bass. The smaller Lake provides a rare fishery for 8-11" wild, native coastal cutthroat trout. A 0.25-mile hiking trail connects the lakes. Motors are not permitted on the lakes.
From the campground, Acorn Womans Lake Trail is a 1-mile interpretive hike that provides visitors with many opportunities for picnicking and swimming. The 2-mile Summit Lake Trail travels through a mixed conifer forest and small water crossings.
Acorn Woman Lakes Campground contains a day use area, 10 individual sites and five group sites. All sites are walk-in and designated for tent camping only. They are reachable by walking on foot trails from the parking area. Vehicles must be parked in the designated parking lot, and all personal belongings must be carried to the campsite. The closest campsites are approximately 1/4 mile from parking, and the farthest campsites are approximately 1.5 miles from parking. SOMETIMES we do offer an ATV portage service for your camping gear. We will not transport people. This service is at the discretion of the Camp Host and charged at $25 per trip. ATV's break down, camp hosts need time off so ALWAYS have carts as a plan B. For more info email info@applegatelake.com.
Picnic tables, campfire rings and vault toilets are provided. Group site $19 campers MUST WALK TO THE BATHROOM NEAR THE DAY USE AREA. HUMAN WASTE MAY NOT BE PLACED IN TRASH RECEPTACLES. Drinking water is available on the East side hand pump by campsite #2 SOME SEASONS. Campers must supply their own drinking water or have containers to fill at this handpump IF IT IS OPERATIONAL.
