There, visitors can canoe, swim, fish or ride a sailboat. Not all lake activities are slow-paced, though. You can also water ski or skim the waves in a Jet Ski. The USDA Forest Service manages more than half of the shoreline on the 6,430-acre lake, which is located about 2,000 feet above sea level. There are about 100 miles of shoreline, with most of the developed recreational facilities located along the southern shore.
Some facilities have restrooms and water fountains.
Of those facilities, Carden's Bluff is the only one offering camping. Each defined campsite includes a picnic table, fire ring and lantern ring. There are four flush toilet buildings, one with shower facilities. Water hydrants and trash containers are located throughout the area, but there is no trailer dump station. The entrance gate is locked from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m.
