Visited Stanley 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 Stanley Lake?
how big are the group campsites?
Hi Gail,
Five of the campsites at Stanley Lake campground are for multi-family (up to 16 people per site) and include sites 1, 2, 6, 15 and 18.
Please note that the campsites for Stanley Lake have been renumbered for 2021. Campsite 1 is now Campsite 7. Just add 6 to the site you are interested in from the photos (until they are updated). Luckily all the sites are pretty fantastic in an amazing area.
Hi J Bass,
Thanks for heads up on the renumbered campsites. We will schedule a photographer to reshoot the entire campground/campsites this year and get new pictures posted.
