Little Crater Lake, Government Camp

The lake is so clear that you can see the bottom of the lake, and it's a very unique turquoise colored. Not a very big place, very short hike from the parking lot. If you are visiting the nearby Timothy Lake, drop by.

Very nice place to see turquoise water and have a little picnic. Very near from the parking.kid friendly and pet friendly too. But it's not a swimming spot. If you are a nature admirer then this is a place you must visit. It reminded me to blue pool but the hike is very short. For those who can't hike to blue pool then this can fulfill your blue pool wish.😅

Went there for the first time this fall. I did not know this existed until a friend took us there. It is a natural lake that is 45 feet deep and clear enough to see the bottom. There is no swimming and the water temp is in the 30's all year - very cold. This is a small lake, but very beautiful. The walk from the parking area is less than 1/4 mile. It is also flat and a very easy trail.

Beautiful!! Small hidden natural blue pool! Free, but limited parking, just 4 minutes away from the pool. Iced water! We were at 9:00 am, and the sun didn’t show up there yet, but we still could catch some beautiful rays in the water

Beautiful! About 5min walk from the parking spot. Paved trail the whole way. No fees that I am aware of.
