Best Time to Camp at Outpost Lodging Campground

While Outpost Lodging welcomes guests throughout the year, the lake truly shines from late spring through early fall when warm weather invites swimming, boating, and endless waterside adventures—and when all park amenities, marinas, and facilities are humming with activity. Mark your calendar for April 1 through October 31 to experience the park in full swing. Winter and early spring offer their own rewards, though: smaller crowds, crisp forest air, and the kind of tranquil solitude that makes you feel like you've discovered your own private wilderness.
