Fremont Lake is the second largest natural lake in Wyoming. Located just four miles from Pinedale, this lake is eleven miles long and ½ mile wide. This pristine mountain lake offers a variety of recreation opportunities including boating and sailing, water skiing, fishing, camping and more. Visit the website for more information on access and activities.

Most of the lake is within the Bridger-Teton National Forest, consequently, most of the shoreline is undeveloped and in its natural setting at the base of the Wind River Mountains.

Lakeside Lodge Resort and Marina is located on the lower end of Fremont Lake. They offer food, motel and cabin room, RV camping and a private boat launch. For information about Lakeside Lodge, visit www.lakesidelodge.com

The usual camping season is the end of May to September 10th. There are 54 individual camp units at the main campground. Campsites can be reserved in advance here.

Fremont Lake was created thousands of years ago when glacial ice deposited a moraine at the lower end, trapping the mountain waters. The lake is over 600 feet deep at its deepest point, and it was named after John C. Fremont, who surveyed the area in 1842 while mapping the Oregon Trail.

To reach Fremont Lake, take Fremont Lake Road just east of Faler's General Store. At 2.5 miles, you will reach an overlook with an historical marker and great view of the lake. At 3.2 miles, a sign will direct you to turn left for Fremont Lake. After you turn onto this access road, there is a fork with signs pointing the way to the campground, Sandy Beach, CCC Ponds and other features.
