About
Silver Island Lake is a large lake with both an eight site rustic campground and three backcountry campsites on its shores. All sites have a picnic table and fire grate and are back-in only. Some sites can accommodate a small RV (less than 24 feet). Access to the backcountry sites is through the boat launch at the rustic campground. There is no garbage pick up at Silver Island Rustic Campground. Plan to pack out all your garbage, including fish remains from cleaning fish.
