The place

North Gorge is a small, but popular, campground at the northeast edge of the park. A few sites are large enough for an RV, but most are built for tent camping. The campground is set in a grove of pines on the edge of the lake. A boat launch and dock are on the north or right side of the main loop. In the summer, North Gorge is busy on the weekends. Recreation The small boat launch provides access to the lake. Boating, fishing, swimming and water skiing are activities that can easily take place from the campground.
