In the agency’s own words

At Hammerhorn there are nine campsites and three bathrooms including one accessible site and bathroom. There is access to potable water spigots. There is a trailer pull through site. It is not paved. The location is mostly a coniferous/fir forested area with smaller deciduous trees/bushes. The campground sits a short distance above the lake. The accessible trail around the lake is about 40% complete. There is a five-acre lake for trout fishing, however it is not stocked and fishing unavailable due to low water levels.
