About

Acorn Womans Lake Campgrounds are nestled in a mixed-conifer forest on the banks of Acorn Womans Lake. The facility provides remote spread-out tent-only campsites that are reachable via foot trails. The unique, remote setting offers visitors stunning scenery and access to a multitude of recreational opportunities with a campsite far enough from other campsites. Some campsites are up to 0.8 of a mile from parking area, some are closer. Forest Service vault toilets are spread out and a short walk away.Acorn Woman Lakes Campground contains a day use area, 10 individual sites and five group sites. All sites are walk-in and designated for tent camping only. They are reachable by walking on foot trails from the parking area. Vehicles must be parked in the designated parking lot, and all personal belongings must be carried to the campsite. The closest campsites are approximately 1/4 mile from parking, and the farthest campsites are approximately 1.5 miles from parking. SOMETIMES we do offer an ATV portage service for your camping gear. We will not transport people. This service is at the discretion of the Camp Host and charged at $25 per trip. ATV's break down, camp hosts need time off so ALWAYS have carts as a plan B.
