About
Two small sites are nestled amongst some beautiful Douglas Fir trees along the terraced shores of Barton lake. There are two separate vehicle access points; the first site offers space for 5 groups and the second site (about 200 metres down the road) offers space for 2 groups. A short trail connects the two sites.
