The place

Located deep in the interior forests of Shannon county, this campground is situated along the south-east shore of the 22-acre Logger's Lake. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), Camp 1730 located in Bunker, constructed Loggers Lake in the late 1930's. Several springs feed water into the lake basin, helping maintain a cooler temperature. The lake is a destination for anglers looking for non-motorized boating and quiet bank fishing. There is a memorial to the CCC located in the campground. Keep reading

The campground area is located on the southeast lakeshore and all sites have a view of the lake, with only light vegetation in between. Fishing: Logger's Lake offers good fishing for large-mouth bass, sunfish and channel catfish. The Day Use area is on the southeast lakeshore and is to the right of the campground. The day use area has bathrooms, 3 parking spaces, two picnic tables, and is a grassy area shaded by a few trees. It has a small swim beach, boat ramp, picnic tables, and grills.
