About

SNAKE LAKE (FAMILY CG) (Campground) is located in the Meadow Valley area off of Bucks Lake Road and boasts shady lakeside campsites for tents, RVs, OHVs and horses. It is one of the few campgrounds on the Mt. Hough Ranger District that allows OHV trail access directly from the campground. Activities include fishing, hiking, wildlife viewing, horseback riding, OHV use, and non-motorized boating. Snake Lake is not recommended for swimming.

This multi-use campsite has 17 sites; 8 of them with corrals for equestrian campers. There are no hookups and no water. Sites include picnic tables, fire rings, and bear resistant food lockers. Horses are allowed overnight in equestrian campsites only, and corrals are also available. Sites 16 and 17 are located away from the main campground and are ideal for OHV users.
