Fishing
A beautiful little campground lies tucked beside a crystal clear river that offers great fishing opportunities and a peaceful place to spend the day. Many visitors enjoy this recreation site for its well kept campsites and for the picnic area. Others enjoy this site for the river access provided by the boat launch. The clear waters of the Delta Clearwater River provide excellent fishing opportunities for Arctic Grayling, whitefish, and salmon.
A state fishing license is usually required.
