The lake holds catfish, largemouth bass, and trout according to recent visitors. Camping remains free with a 14-day limit, and the site accommodates both drive-in and walk-in access.
Basic amenities include toilets and trash service, while campfires and alcohol are permitted. Cell service reaches the area. For additional camping infrastructure, Mountain Spirits RV Park operates southeast of the reservoir. Pets can accompany campers to this lakeside location.
