About Skunk Lake
This small user maintained site offers camping opportunities amongst a stand of large spruce. There is access to the lake via a natural boat launch. Due to the large mature trees in the area, the site does feel a bit closed in and is not suitable for large vehicles. Please note that while the site is safe for use, the facilities are quite rustic. Only an outhouse is provided on site.
