Very close to road but not much traffic. Fire ring, log benches even and plenty of firewood. Great view of the mountain range and the lake. Slightly wind-protected (if wind blows from South-Southwest-West and maybe also when wind comes from East). No connection/3g (with Movistar). Suitable for tents and smaller rigs/cars (with power to go back to the road steep uphill). Very clean!

Beautiful place right next to the lake, with the gorgeus view of the Cerro Castillo. We arrived in the afternoon, around 5pm, it was perfect timing for photos, the mountains were mirroring in the lake. We only picknicked here but can imagine spending a night. We drove all the way down to the lake with our 4x4 Honda Pilot. Not steep, very short, enough space to turn around. There is enough space to open rooftop tent. There is also a firepit available.
We were thrilled by this place.
Wauw! What a spot! Beautiful views on all the snowy mountain peaks including Cerro Castillo, very nice clear water lake and both the lake and the little beach / picnic area very clean. It has a nice flat green grass area to pitch your tent. We only chilled here an afternoon (less than 1 hour drive from Villa Cerro Castillo with our Mercedes Vito van), because we didn’t want to try to drive down the slightly sleep hill towards the grass area and little beach. But if you have a lighter weighting van or a 4x4, you could make it down there. You could also try to park across the road if you want to sleep here, but than you have to search a bit to level your car/van. Must be very quiet!
