Iron Lake Campground offers eight campsites with picnic tables and fire rings along a high alpine lake shore in the Salmon-Challis National Forest, featuring piped drinking water and vault toilets.

Non-motorized boats have carry-down access to the lake and connecting Hat Lakes to the south, making it ideal for paddlers and anglers.

Note that the access road (Salmon River Mountain Road) is narrow and rough, requiring slow, careful driving and is not recommended for RVs or trailers.
