Garnet Lake

Garnet Lake partially developed lakefront in Johnsburg that offers primitive tent camping along the road and several paddle in sites. The tent campsites are too high on embankment over the road to allow for drive-in use, but it is beautiful lake with ample paddling opporunties.

One of the Campsites

This is one of the three campsites on Garnet Road. All of them are 30 feet above the road on a ledge. Most or all have vehicular access blocked off, so you have to park in the parking area, for the trail head to Round Pond.

Ross Mountain

On the state land along the east side, there are several clearings where there once where extra campsites developed. These areas, besides the section where the road runs right on the edge of the lake, gives you a good view of Ross Mountain, and just out of the frame, Mount Blue.
