About Skimikin Lake

Skimikin Lake Recreation Site is a large, semi-open site that is managed through a partnership agreement. Camping fees are collected from April 15 to October 15 annually. This is a CASH ONLY site. One side of the site has been developed for horses with several corrals and manure dumping locations. There is a $4/ horse/ night camping fee for these services. The other side of the site is designated for ORV users. The trails associated with the site are multi-use catering to ATV use and horse use.
