Description And Directions
Site Description:
The small, treed recreation site is used primarily as a camping, fishing and hunting destination. The campsite is suitable for truck campers, small trailer units and tenters. A good boat launch can be found here. Murray Lake is a very picturesque but small, mid to high elevation lake.
Driving Directions:
Recent new access to the site is via the Juliet Creek FSR in which the local forestry company has constructed a new, less steep road to the lake. As it is new it may be a little wet and rough in 2015. Take the Juliet Creek exit off the Coquihalla Highway then drive about 1 km south along the paved section of the service road. Turn right and proceed along this gravel road for about 0.6 km and then turn right onto the Bottletop Road and drive about 6.7 km. Turn left and this small campsite is only about 100 yards away.
