Blue Ridge Campground is a small campground with only 10 units. Just a short drive to the south brings you to Blue Ridge Reservoir, an 8 mile pocket of water that is both tranquil and inviting. Rainbow, brown and brook trout all ply this body of water and the relaxing surroundings make the trip here well worth it. If you are one who likes to view wildlife, this is a great place. Commonly seen are elk, bear, deer and eagles. Rock crossing trail cuts across both the north and south fingers of the reservoir for those looking for a moderate hike. The Happy Jack Visitor Center is located 14 miles north of Clints Well on Forest Highway 3 (Lake Mary Road).
