     This lake is so wonderful. Quinault River - North Fork has a perfect whitewater paddling spot nearby, and Low Divide is another great place to have a look at nearby. In case you don’t mind getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Quinault River, and there are other places here than Martins Lakes, for example Lake Margaret. Hurricane Ridge Ski Lodge has great slopes and a friendly staff; on a splendid day you can take a hike along the  
   Long Ridge Trail.

Wynoochee Falls Campground
11 miles away
Nothing is left except overgrown roads and a couple of holes where there used to be an outhouse.

The falls are picturesque and were featured in a 1961 movie ''Ring of Fire''

Yes the Elwha River trail is only 18 miles away but that is by trail straight through the heart of the Olympic Mtns. And park.

Wynoochee Falls campground has been closed and the campground sign, firepits, restroom and tables removed. You?ll have to drive about 15 miles of gravel road to get here. There is a rock pedestal with a missing sign along the Wynoochee road 4 miles NE of the lake near the end of the road. This marks the parking area and access trail down to the falls. The ? mile trail is interrupted with large ditches to discourage access and camping. The waterfall is only about 100 feet high, (maybe less) but very picturesque, with a large clear basin at its base and an outlet scoured through granite rocks....

Nice. Good car-camping family place.
