At the north end of Cascade, we will take Highway 22 a little over 20 miles northeast to Warm Lake and visit campgrounds that surround the crystal clear waters of Warm Lake. Arriving at Warm Lake, our next stop is Shoreline Campground. At an elevation of 5300 feet and offering 23 single campsites and 8 double sites for up to 10 people each, Shoreline is a paradise to those who appreciate paved parking spurs and areas large enough to easily accommodate a 35 foot trailer. The campground is situated in a mixed-growth of lodgepole pine forest with partial shade. Visitors enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, and viewing wildlife. There are great hiking, mountain biking, horseback and off-road vehicle riding opportunities. Shoreline features an accessible group site, complete with a picnic shelter, which can easily accommodate 50 people. This particular site is fabulous because of the paving and the nice bathrooms and everybody is close together, but not so close, that we are on each other’s heals and we have had a wonderful time here with the trees and the weather, not much mosquitoes. (laugh) All sites have tables, campfire rings, grills, vaulted toilets and available drinking water. A boat ramp accesses the lake and the nearby Billy Rice Swim Beach is a favorite stop for a swim and picnic. Reservations for the individual and group sites can be made at www.recreation.gov. Or by calling 1-877-444-6777. Further information is also available by calling the Forest Service at area code 208-373-4007.
