This is a great camping area, with the only major downside I experienced being the dusty ground - when other vehicles drive by, it will kick up a bunch of dust and cover your tent/vehicle/camper. The saving grace is that each "campsite" is separated from each other, usually by quite a distance. While driving up here, be a good fellow camper and keep your speed to a crawl.
As you drive up the dirt road, you'll see several spurs to the left (mainly), e.g. 47.976074, -120.157060. Each of these are early campsites. The road continues circling around the lake to the left.
When you see the first vault toilet (47.978068, -120.162558) there are 2 big campsites. There is a steep road that leads to more campsites, but there is no reason to take it because if from just before the vault toilet you turn right, the road it drops to the same lower area closer to water level that has a bunch of sites and another vault toilet.
Grade Creek Road also continues around, apparently to more campsites, which I didn't checkout.
Besides the lake view, there is also at least 1 access point via a narrow path that continues with a small separation of lake grasses. It is wide enough for a person with a kayak or SUP. Fishing is also allowed at the lake, with a sign asking for voluntary reporting.
There are several vault toilets in the area. Right before I arrived, a park attendant just finished cleaning one, and had several bags of garbage in the back of the truck. The folks I camped next to said when they arrived there was garbage all over the place. Lucky for me, it was clean by the time I showed up. What a shame some people feel this campground is their garbage dump.
We were told by a fellow camper that there is a hiking path that goes around the north side of the mountain to the SW of the campsite that leads to Lake Chelan. You can see a path on satellite pictures clearly showing up at around 47.978068, -120.162558.
We had no T-Mobile service at this location.

A great, free find with lake access and great views. The drive in wasn’t terrible. A little rocky and rutted but nothing serious. Several places to pull off to set up shop. Each lot seemed to have it’s own pit toilet. A huge plus. There’s a good amount of trees for shade, but depending on the site choice, it may be more or ... more

There’s a good amount of trees for shade, but depending on the site choice, it may be more or less private.
We stayed here Saturday, 9/21/19.

The drive there is pretty nice but once you see the pit toilet shelter on your left don’t go any further unless you have an off road vehicle. I followed the gps all the way down, almost got stuck and scraped the bottom of my car (Honda Element). It’s very quiet but there were locals being kknd of loud (yelling and drinking while fishing, plus they kept leaving and coming back which is loud on a gravel road). There is lake access but I decided not to paddle out. All in all, I would stay again but with a group since there’s no service.
