Best Time to Camp at Moore Point Campground

Moore Point transforms with the seasons, each offering its own magic. Summer unfolds as the prime season, with warm, sun-drenched days perfect for diving into Lake Chelan's crystal waters and exploring nearby hiking trails. The shoulder seasons paint the landscape in dramatic contrasts—spring arrives with wildflower blooms amid lingering snow patches, while autumn brings crisp air and golden light. Winter wraps the campground in quiet solitude, with snow blanketing the surrounding peaks and creating a serene wonderland for the adventurous few. Visitors planning May trips should note that noxious weed control crews may be working in the area, potentially affecting site availability during this important maintenance period.
