About This Location

Discover the seclusion of Harr Point Campground, a primitive, boat-in or hike-in site located on the scenic east shore of California's Applegate Lake.

Harr Point Campground offers a truly unique, semi-primitive escape for those looking to get away from the crowds. Nestled on the peaceful east shore of Applegate Lake, this site is accessible exclusively by boat or via the Payette Trail #970. The rugged, natural setting provides an ideal backdrop for adventurers seeking solitude and a genuine connection with the outdoors in a quiet, forested environment.

Because this is a primitive federal site managed by the USFS, visitors should come fully prepared. The campground provides basic amenities including five tent sites, each equipped with a fire ring and a picnic table, along with access to vault toilets. There is no drinking water or garbage disposal available on-site, so campers must practice Leave No Trace principles and pack out all trash.

This campground is best suited for experienced tent campers and outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy a more challenging, self-sufficient camping experience. Whether you arrive by kayak or by foot, Harr Point is the perfect destination for those who prefer a tranquil, back-to-basics wilderness retreat far removed from the typical amenities of modern RV parks.
