Perch Lake Recreation Area

This quaint campground is a family favorite. Located approximately 5.5 miles north of Drummond on Forest Road 223 (Delta Drummond Road), there are 16 campsites. Each site includes a defined parking spur, fire ring and picnic table.

Perch Lake Campground has two loops located on each side of Perch Lake. The North Loop has a toilet building, water, 10 single-family sites, boat launch, dock and small parking area for up to five vehicles with trailers. This loop is family-friendly located in a stand of hemlocks. There is also an area where campers can access the lake for swimming.

The South Loop has water, six single-family sites and a double vault toilet building. This loop provides a quieter camping experience.

Some sites can accommodate RV's up to 35 feet. A developed boat ramp provides access to a 72-acre lake that contains trout, panfish and largemouth bass.

Nearby attractions include the Rainbow Lake Wilderness, the North Country National Scenic Trail, trout fishing in the White River, the Rust-Owen Reservoir and the CAMBA mountain bike trails.
