About
Lake Creek Campground offers a rustic camping experience tucked into the forest along the Little Wenatchee River in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. Located 11 miles from Lake Wenatchee, the campground provides a secluded, wooded atmosphere with light visitor traffic, making it ideal for campers seeking solitude. The primitive campground features dispersed-style sites equipped with fire rings and picnic tables. Vault toilets are available, but there is no potable water, so campers must bring their own supply. No fees are required to camp here. Access is via Forest Road 6500 (Little Wenatchee River Road), a 10-mile drive from Lake Wenatchee Highway. Three trails depart from the campground area, and the Silver Falls National Recreation Trail is a short drive up the river, offering a scenic family hike to waterfalls.
