Brite Lake Comments & Reviews
Visited Brite Lake Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Brite Lake?
I have been a yearly pass holder for the past 2 years. I love the lake generally but as of late, they have not stocked any fish. In fact, none since April and that was 500 lbs. I will not give my money to a lake that for many years was considered a great local fishery. One of the reasons I retired here was because of brite lake’s reputation as a great local fishery. I will not be back until fish are once again stocked.
Terrible. No internet, no 50 amp service. Its very cold this time of year & we have tripped a breaker 3 or 4 times. No cable tv and we’ve found that antennae tv is terrible.
