About this site

Source

Getting in takes a 4x4, and that one fact shapes the trip. Red Lake is not a place for a low car or a long trailer, and fishing is what most people come to do once they are there.

There are 14 sites, first come, first served, at $15 a night, and the site is user maintained, so leave it in better shape than you found it.

Skeetchestn is about 15 km away for supplies and fuel about 16 km, far enough out that you want gas in the tank before you start up the access road. Wadley Lake is about 1 km from camp and Saul Lake about 11 km.
