Fall delivers the most comfortable camping conditions, with daytime temperatures between 65 and 85°F and nights in the mid-40s to mid-50s. The lake stays warm enough for swimming, trails are less dusty, and crowds thin after Labor Day. Summer peaks at 94°F in August. Winter days hover around 71°F, mild enough for camping but with rain possible December through April. Summer weekends bring the most noise and crowding.
Seasonal wildflowers, comfortable weather and good lake access; moderate crowds.
