Newhalem Creek Campground — Ross Lake National Recreation Area
Reviewed Oct. 27, 2020

Rainy, Rain, and more rain!

We stayed here for 5 days and 4 nights and only had one day with actual sunshine! It was ok though because you prepare for rain if you go to the west side of WA state. There are lots of trails to explore but you may have to drive to get there. Kayaking is nice (in the morning) but plan for nice dry and calm days because when the wind kicks up, it becomes rather dangerous. Little town of New Halem is nearby with a cool trail to the falls that helps produce the power for the town and a view of the series of dams in the area.  Would like to come back and visit but maybe later in the summer when there is less rain!
