About
**Overview:** **Summit Lake Campground** is a quiet retreat and a short distance from Warm Lake. The campground offers 3 campsites and the small but lovely Summit Lake is a treat. **Natural Features:** The campground is situated in a scenic pine forest, which provides partial shade in the campground. Lunch Creek runs alongside the campground and summer wildflowers are abundant. **Recreation:** The campground is near Johnson Creek and offering great fishing opportunities for cutthroat, rainbow, lake and bull trout. Billy Rice Swim Beach is a short drive from the campground toward Warm Lake. It is on the north side of the lake and is a fun place to go for an afternoon picnic and swim. The surrounding area near Warm Lake offers great hiking, mountain biking, horseback and off-road vehicle riding, and hunting. Check on the Motor Vehicle Use Map (MVUM) of the Cascade District for specific riding areas. The WeWuKiye (Wa Wu Kia) Trail No. 252 was recently built and can be accessed at Shoreline Campground.
