    The beauty of Kinzel Lake is reason enough to stop by. Get your heart beating on the nice whitewater of Sandy River, and obviously Draw Creek flows through this area. Kinzel Lake gets a large amount of water; the wettest month of the year is usually December, that's the one that rains the most, and July is the month with the least moisture. This lake is so wonderful. On a delightful day at Kinzel Lake you can take a hike along the Still Creek Trail, and if  
   you came for an overnight stay Bighorn Campground is a tremendous spot to camp.
All year is a delightful time in the Central Cascade Range if you have a thing about the outdoors. There's no such thing as a bad day of skiing at nearby Timberline Lodge, and the beauty of mother nature reveals herself at Hideaway Falls. You just can't picture the amount of outdoors cool things the area near Kinzel Lake has to offer. Camping is available at Kinzel Lake Campground,
 
               and Whispering Woods (Vri) is a delightful place to get some rest.

While you're here at Kinzel Lake you can take a hike along the Cool Creek Trail, and if you need a spot to stay Mount Hood Inn is a glorious choice. This lake is so wonderful.
