Best Time to Camp at Lake Winfield Scott Recreation Area
Experience the magic of four distinct seasons in this mountain paradise, where autumn transforms the forest into a blazing tapestry of gold and crimson. Summer nights bring refreshing cool breezes that make for perfect sleeping weather under the stars, while gentle mountain rains create a symphony on the lake's surface throughout the year. Winter visitors should note that some services may be limited, but the peaceful solitude and frost-kissed mornings offer their own special rewards.
