My 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.

Family and Dog friendly 

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.

Beautiful not Glampy

Sites 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. 

Decent car camping 

Really 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.

Really pretty and relaxing

This 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.
