We tried to venture out of our camping comfort zone this summer and check out some new spots. I had heard good things about Bumping Lake, so we decided to try it out. We loved the campground. The campgrounds were surrounded by trees and very private and quiet. The paved roads and sidewalks were perfect for riding bikes!
The lake was absolutely beautiful, surrounded by mountains and trees. The lake had tons of stumps in it though, and was really shallow in places. It was 100 feet deep in places too! The wind coming off the mountains was a little cooler than I prefer, and the fishing was not great. I think we'll leave the boat at home next time.
Coulee was excited to be able to go on another camping trip with the family. I think its a record for her- twice in one summer! She was a good girl.
The kids (and us too) had fun exploring around the lake. There were little frogs everywhere! The lake was down quite a bit so there was a lot of mud, which the kids thought was great! They kept telling me its "good for your skin!"
All in all, we loved Bumping lake! We'll be back for sure.
