    What a nice lake Collins Lake is. Be careful coming to the Central Cascade Range, you might not ever wanna go home again. Summit Meadows is a glorious spot, and whitewater paddling is nice on Zigzag River. There's pleasant hiking along the Hidden Lake Trail, and Swim Creek is one of the streams close by that might be worth checking out. Eureka Peak is painless to spot from Collins Lake, and if you need a place to stay Mount Hood Inn is a wonderful choice.

You'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Mt. Hood Ski Bowl while you're here, and a perfect place to camp here at Collins Lake is Barlow Campground. This lake is so wonderful. In case you don’t mind getting soaked, you can always go whitewater paddling on Sandy River, and the Tom Dick Trail offers hiking at its best. Yep, outdoors exciting stuff to do are beyond doubt plentiful here at Collins Lake. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Paradise Park Trail; dry warm beds await you at Thunderhead Lodge.
This lake is one of the great places here in the Central Cascade Range. The high level of rain makes Collins Lake a rather wet site; December is the wettest month with most rain, and July is the month with the least moisture. That right there is loads of fun things already but it goes on, the Central Cascade Range has it all. Camping at Nanitch Campground is always a good experience, and you could always explore Sand Canyon.
