Tieton State is a popular camping location. The runway abuts the lake making for campsites right along the water. The lake itself is a reservior so the water level will vary throughout the year. It's also generally too cold to swim in, but with an inflatable kayak it's possible to row out to the island off the south end of the runway.
Be careful of careless car campers who will drive on the runway and also for grazing livestock. It's common for the runway to be covered with cow pies. Doing a low pass to scare off clueless campers and any animals would be a good idea.
