Millers Lane Campground
Situated on the south shore of Phillips Lake, the Millers Lane Campground is the smallest of 3 campgrounds near the lake. Set in an open ponderosa pine forest, this warm site is popular for fishing, hiking, boating, and watching wildlife. Due to fluctuating water levels, the lake may be a short hike down from the campground. There are 11 tent/trailer sites and 4 tent-only sites.
