Cedar Lake Campground

Cedar Lake Campground is a primitive backcountry campsite accessed via a steep hike, featuring two sites (north and south of the lake) with level tent spots and built-in benches.

The campground offers fishing opportunities and is located just 4 minutes from Bellingham, making it an accessible wilderness option for hikers and anglers willing to tackle the challenging trail approach.

No fires are permitted, and camping is first-come, first-served with no formal reservations.
