Even on holiday weekends, there's still plenty of room for everyone to enjoy the beautiful waters and expansive views of Baker Lake. The abundance of front country campgrounds and backcountry areas offer year-round opportunities for overnight stays (even for last-minute trips!), as well as many great access points for lake activities including swimming, kayaking, boating, and fishing. The waves can get a bit choppy depending on time of day, so keep an eye on the weather and know when to start kayaking closer to shore based on your equipment and experience level. Found an amazing private camping spot in the backcountry there a few weeks ago, looking forward to a return visit!
