About

Lake Ellen East Campground is one of two campgrounds located on each end of the 75.5 acre Lake. Access through the campground is a one way single lane gravel road loop. Campsites have good separation with lots of vegetation for privacy. Access to the lake for fishing and swimming is a short walk. Wildlife viewing is abundant with bald eagles, osprey, loons, beaver and more. This is a popular lake for families with small children because of the large availability for fishing off the bank. Fishing for rainbow trout is good. Many amateur photographers also enjoy the area for its picturesque opportunities.
