About this site
SourceCrater Lake Recreation Site gives you free camping beside the lake in the Nazko area, and the lake is the whole reason to make the trip.
There is no fee and the road in is paved. No facilities are listed, so bring water, a way to deal with your own garbage, and everything else you expect to use.
Nazko is the nearest town at about 11 km and fuel at the Three Nations Store and Lodge is about the same, so top up before you turn off. Redwater Lake is about 18 km away.
