Legend
We camped here mid May 2016 in site #16. The fee at the time was $18. There were 2 clean vault toilets. The available water was treated with iodine. The waterfall was about 30-40’ high and emerged from a rock crevice. The sites were t that private but only a few people were there. I believe now that this federal campground is by reservation only as are the others in the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area.

What’s the point of having agateman ?
He was rude .
But seriously what’s the point of having a guy who does Not even groom trails tell me I’m 15 min late to leave at 7pm
Which is still plenty of light for another hour of riding .
Equestrian peoples time frames are not based off of public park time frames . If I’m running behind so be it I don’t need a ticket from a county park to tell me .
15$ is way to steep for a Washington park in the middle of nowhere
ScoutShout out to Patrick to say Thank You. Great stay with my RV. Full hook ups. A Little packed but the fishing was worth it. Breakfast was great. The stay was fun. Can’t wait to go again. I will book it ever year from now on
Traveler
Spots are clean with fire pit and tables. Dirt trails on the water which is a beautiful little cove on lake Roosevelt. Bald eagles, and lots of bugs. Most often in the summer you can hear the big pow wows going on across the river at night. See a universe of stars and enjoy feeling close to nature in this uncomnercialized quaint small campground. Which btw, is ALWAYS full when I've gone there. The only downfall is that the local teens like to have big ragers there and when that happens its only USUALLY for one night then they leave but they get loud and obnoxious. I've experienced that happening 7 out of 10 times I've camped there. Good spot to fish, kayak, float a sun island, rock hound, bird watch, critter watch, rest, relax, and get, away from people.
TravelerAn amazing campground ! A little busy but an overall amazing campground ! Clearest lake I've ever seen !
Legend
The spaces were quite large and not very shaded. The lake is nice, but you can't see it from any of the campsites. Lake Ellen West is by far better. If you go down the road a little, there is a beautiful view of the lake. Vault toilets, picnic tables and fire rings are available. There are also dumpsters.
TravelerGood secluded campground. Dock to fish on. Not a ski lake
GuideThis is one of my son’s and my happy spots! We love hiking around the lake and the campsites are affordable and beautiful. The west side is more open but also dispersed. The East side is less dispersed but more private with thick vegetation between most sites. There are rocky outcrops around most of the lake and a small island. I’ve heard the fishing is good but we’ve never gotten any bites yet… but that’s just a matter of figuring out what lures/bait to use. Many people just park next to the road to fish as eagles and osprey can be seen diving into the lake to catch fish of their own.
ScoutIt's very secluded and beautiful, the people here were all polite. Lots of nature to explore but pack in what you pack out, no running water but that's perfect. It's REAL camping. had a very nice timeee
Traveler
A beautiful spot for family camp outs. Lots of room for kids to play safely. Warm welcoming locals. Warm relaxing water. Great for fishing, sun bathing, hanging out around the fire under a whole universe of stars. Most beautiful sunsets. Can't go wrong here.
TravelerSites are not shaded at all and very close together. Sites on the water are highly trafficked by other campers. Water was unswimmable due to swimmer’s itch contamination. Host was very friendly and bathrooms were clean.
TravelerReally amazing area for families and pets. The first 9 campgrounds are right on the water so my dog was so happy to be right on the beach. Perfect space for leads in every campsite and very well kept.
GuideThis camping spot is conveniently located off a well groomed gravel road just a mile or so from the main paved road. It’s the first campsite we came to as we drove into Lake Roosevelt. There were a couple other campers, but it wasn’t crowded at all. The only downfall is the sites are really close to one another. But the lake and beach are huge and there’s plenty of room for your dogs to play. There’s Fire pits and picnic tables for each designated camp site. Sometimes even a little firewood. We pulled our pop-up camper into site 7 which was perfect. Then we fished and enjoyed the evening under the stars.
TravelerMy family has been going to this campground and area since before I was born. We used to go every summer growing up. There's a designated swimming area for kids, a dock, and a playground. Definitely a busy spot mid summer season, but good for the whole family. Lots of boats of the lake, good for water skiing or wakeboarding. A bunch of smaller, more quiet and secluded beaches nearby.
LegendIt was empty when we went, the sites are very close together, and not private. There is a great waterfall that is accessible by boat only when the water levels are higher in the summer. In spring the lake is low for flood control. Only $9 a night in off season and $18 in the summer.
TravelerWe went on the 4th of July weekend. The campground was crowded with families but also groups of adults. The families were great but the adult groups not so much. There is no host to monitor people so there were folks running their generators all night and others were up partying until 2 in the morning making lots of noise. Ranger came but once he left they went back to all the noise. Also, the beautiful inlet to the lake was a mosquito breeding ground. You have been warned.
ScoutSuper crowded on weekends. Rangers were there at least 3 times a day to clean bathrooms. Very pretty with a lot of wildlife.
GuideEasy roads to get into. Excellent quiet campground. Beautiful scenery
ScoutI occasionally go down here for fishing. Nice little campground. Easy access to the water. The waterfall really flows in the spring, but slows as summer sets in. Fishing was decent. The boat launch is only available during high water. When Grand Coulee starts letting the water down in Lake Roosevelt the Hawk Creek boat launch gets closed. Don’t worry there are a few other boat launches within a short drive (10-15 minutes).
ScoutEveryone at the camp ground was constantly being attacked by yellow jackets, being stung multiple times. The bathroom toilets had no cover so the bugs were bad. Other than that everything about the place was beautiful and fun
TravelerPlayed in the creek/ waterfall with our dogs. Caught frogs, and hiked all day.
GuideTurned up late afternoon with plenty of camp sites available. Was early season tho and the water level was 60ft down dew to the dams being open for the salmon and snow melt. One valt toilet no showers and potable water. Super cool waterfall at the end of camp few rainbow trout in there. We hiked to some caves up on the hill witch was wicked. Not too many trees and no cover in between sites. Would be nice once the lake is up to its normal height. Boat launch 2 min drive. We will be back so try some pike fishing.
GuideI almost didn’t want to write this because I’d rather keep it a secret. But we have stayed there a few times now. The last couple times there were literally 1000’s of baby frogs that my son was catching and playing with. There is a ton of wildlife. Crawfish. Birds. Small snakes if you go looking for them. Fish. I always worry when we go that it’s going to be full when we go because it’s a smaller campground but there is always space. Overall, a great spot!
ScoutI enjoyed my stay at Hawk Creek. There are plenty of places to fish and swim. We camped close to the Falls so we had a nice view from our campspot.
Guide
Most spots can fit trailers but some more private than other spots. Turn around loop is tight but doable with full size Dodge and 32’ trailer.
TravelerA great place if you’re looking for a quick overnight stop with easy highway access. Water from a hand pump well and vault toilets available. Also a nice ADA trail at site.
Guide
Cool sleeping at this elevation when hot weather persists in lower lands. We pull a 32’ Outdoors RV trailer behind a full size 6’ bed and quad cab Dodge truck. We would have fit in a few of spots and there was 8 total with tighter loop turn around at end. Water was off due to Covid and was no trash dumpster but did have outhouses. Nice trail to go hiking out back of campground and simple walking wheelchair loop at Overlook parking lot. Was some road noise when the few cars around here passed us since CG is beside road at summit of Pass but was still nice private spaces with table, fire ring and near level parking pads.
