Camping at Diamond Lake near Idleyld Park

Public campground · Idleyld Park · 229 campsites

A forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Perched at about 5,183 feet on the east shore of Diamond Lake, the campground unfolds along most of the shoreline with direct sightlines to both Mount Bailey and the peaked Mount Thielsen. The lake itself shapes much of the experience: an 11-mile paved loop invites cyclists to circle the water, swimmers test the cold clear surface, and anglers launch from one of the nearby boat ramps or cast from shore rainbow trout are supported by an annual stocking of some 300,000 fingerlings.

“Great views, glad there were showeres available. Great experience ”

Adrian G 5 · Sep 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Wonderful campground and John is an awesome campground host. Too bad the reduction in forest service shows with lack of presence of forest personal. Shame on the President ”

Nancy S 5 · Sep 2025 · Recreation.gov

“What can I say? It was a very good representation of Diamond Lak :) Campground is nice, big, busy, and well maintained.”

How far ahead to book Diamond Lake

For June weekends, book about 158 days ahead. Three in four June Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 69 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (61,307 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
