About Manson Lake

This site is located in an open environment on the shores of Manson Lake, near the community of Manson Creek. The basic amenities of a pit toilet, tables and fire rings are provided. A small gravel boat launch is available for car top and small trailered boats. The lake can offer some decent angling opportunities for lake trout, rainbow trout, bull trout and white fish. Please note that this site is 160 km from Mackenzie, so come prepared for a remote experience. Despite the remote nature of the site, it is a popular camping spot.
