  • Boat Ramps

    Depending on the melting of ice, the boat ramp is scheduled to open around April 15th.  The peninsula boat ramp gate is now closed to discourage people from accessing the ice.

  • Camping

    ​Clear Fork campground is open. A full closure is planned at some point for upgrades/improvements that will last through the winter and possibly up to Summer of 2019.  Reservations CAN NOT be made on this loop, but until it is closed, you can occupy a site as a Walk-In.  ​

    Campers that have a Senior Citizen Aspen Leaf Annual pass affixed to their windshield receive a $3 discount off the normal camping fees on Sunday-Thursday nights only-not including holidays.  Reservations can be made at least 3 days in advance of your stay and can be made 6 months in advance.  Reservations are not mandatory, but highly suggested during the busy summer season.  You can reserve for dates of stay starting with May 18th and ending Labor Day weekend.  Camping is limited to 14 days in a 45 day period.​  After Labor Day weekend, no reservations are needed and all sites are available on a first come first served basis.

     Reservations may be made online or by calling 1-800-244-5613, starting in December.  They can be made 6 months out, but must be made at least 3 days in advance of your stay.

  • Cell Phone Coverage

    Sprint cell service is usually good at the park.   Sometimes there is enough Verizon signal to text, but not usually enough for a phone call. Other carriers do not work. We DO NOT have public wi-fi, but you can get it in town near the library.

  • Fishing Report

    ​There have been no recent reports of fish being caught since the ice is starting to deteriorate around the edges.  ​Remember that there is a lake specific limit on the bass.  They must be 18 inches or larger to keep, and you can only keep ONE.  Statewide limits pertain to all other species.
