Lake Chelan Campgrounds
Handy Springs Campground
This single-site campground is situated in the forest on the side of Crescent Hill at an elevation of 6,338 ft, and is often not accessible due to snow until June. It's not a popular campground, as it requires a 13 mile drive on dirt forest service roads, however it is close to the Crescent Hill Trailhead and there appeared to be a faint trail leading from the campground directly towards the trailhead. The campground has a picnic table, fire pit surrounded by stumps and a pit toilet and there are a couple of level spots in the area suitable for pitching a tent or parking an extra vehicle. While the campground is located next to Handy Springs, there didn't seem to be a suitable place to gather water, so plan on bringing your own water supply.

Hiking
Handy Springs Campground is located within the Twenty Five Mile Creek area, which has a number of interconnected hiking trails. The campground is less than a mile away from Crescent Hill Trailhead (there looked to be an informal trail directly to the trailhead, otherwise follow the road), which provides access to Devil's Backbone Trail, North Fork 25 Mile Creek and Lake Creek Trail and is located four miles from the Pyramid Hill Trail.
