Green Bay Campground features 11 designated sites with picnic tables and fire rings, vault toilets, and a swimming beach.

Green Bay Campground

Camping at Green Bay is rugged but beautiful. The amenities include a pit toilet and picnic tables :) So this is not the place for RV campers! The beach is granite rock and the view is AMAZING.

Boat Camping in a Heavenly Bay

I love staying here with friends. Has a beautiful view of the lake and has tons of activities available for fun things to do on your camping trip.

If you want an easy camping spot for a fun little getaway, Green Bay Campground is your place!

Best skipping rocks you’ll ever find! 

We stumbled upon this GEM after having a hard time finding campgrounds that weren’t full. A friend had suggested checking out the cliff jumping at Greenbay, and lo and behold, we found the campsite of our dreams. 

  

There are two parking areas, and you have to hike down a short hike (moderately steep hill) to get to the campsites. Campsites are marked and have picnic tables and fire pits. They are all right on the water and offer the most incredibly serene views of Pend Orielle. 

  

There is a single vault toilet, they ask that you bring a bucket and shovel for solid waste. Bring your own way to dispose of trash, and have a way to lock it up, or animals WILL get into it. I have Verizon and there was no phone service once you get a short ways down slagle rd. Much of the road to the campground is unpacked and bumpy. Would not recommend for a low profile car. 

  

When we arrived on the first Wednesday after Labor Day there were several other cars in the lot, but everyone was spread out. People were friendly in passing but kept to themselves, and it felt like we had the entire lake to ourselves that first night. Despite haze from the wildfires, we still had the most spectacular views we could have imagined. Sunrise over the lake was incredible. We spent the morning soaking up the sun and wading around in the icy, clear water. You can walk all the way out to where you cannot touch and still see the rocks on the bottom. Our only complaint was that there were a lot of yellow jackets- A LOT. But they weren’t too aggressive. Despite being frequently swarmed by them, neither of us got stung while we were there. 

  

We were hoping to stay two nights, and we expected that since the site was a little more primitive, people that came would be respectful of the quiet and space. We were wrong. Midday Thursday, several car loads of families started filtering in. Someone pitched a tent 3 feet from ours (not in a designated site). They parked right on top of us, despite having ample other parking room, making it difficult to get in and out of our vehicle. There must’ve been 15 kids, they rolled all the logs off the beach into the water and literally took over the whole place. They were yelling for hours while we cooked lunch and broke down camp to escape. Good for them enjoying the outdoors, but it felt like they should’ve gone to a KOA. It definitely wrecked the nature experience for us, and we saw several other campers leave, also citing complaints about the noise and disrespect of personal space. In the future, I’d choose a site on one of the far ends versus the middle. We were virtually trampled once it filled up.

Perfect Solitude (until it’s not) 

Beautiful. On the lake. Secluded in the forest. How is this place free?

For the locals… it’s like tubs hill and CDA lake but no people. Amazing.

Favorite place I’ve camped yet

Biggest complaint- road to get there. You do have to walk to your site but it’s not far. Views are magical. Water is crystal clear, you feel secluded and safe! 

This place is perfection

A beautiful removed campsite overlooking the water. 

Gorgeous views

Incredible views and camp spots are right on the water. Theres a few campsites in a group area that you can park and camp at, then a little further down the road theres more camp spots that you have to park and walk 50 feet down to. There are bathrooms and tables. 

The road going down is pretty rough especially in the rain but doable without 4wd. Someone made it down in a Nissan Altima. 

  

Highly recommend it
