Located
on the western end of Mormon Lake, these picturesque campgrounds
carry their own weight when it comes to activities. Fishing,
boating, hiking, wildlife viewing, windsurfing, mountain
biking and photography are many of the things can can
choose to do while camping at Dairy Springs/Double
Springs.
There is wonderful hiking in the surrounding area. Trails
with scenic overlooks of Mormon Lake, volcanoes and beautiful
landscapes begin from both campgrounds including Mormon
Mountain Trail, which takes you to an elevation of 8449'
at the top of Mormon Mountain. The scenic town of Mormon
Lake offers bike and boat rentals
and if you don't feel like cooking outdoors, the local steakhouse
has great steaks of which I have had the chance to enjoy
many times.
