What campers say

White Horse Lake Campground is a remote, scenic spot reached by a lengthy dirt/gravel road (rough and washboarded in places). It’s praised for quiet, tree-lined sites, lake access and fishing (no body contact; trolling motors only). Campsites are well spaced and generally well kept, with basic restrooms, drinking spigots and trash service, but no electric or sewer hookups—bring water and plan for dry camping. Camp hosts are often helpful, though there is at least one report of poor staff conduct. Expect modest fees and extra-vehicle charges; the road and lack of hookups are the main tradeoffs for the peaceful setting.
