About

There are frontcountry camping opportunities at Pendleton Bay, Pinkut Creek, and Smithers Landing.

While they are vehicle accessible, the frontcountry campgrounds in this park are very remote. They are accessed by unpaved gravel resource roads. Please use an appropriate vehicle and check the conditions before you head out.

All camping is on a first come, first served basis. Reservations are not available, and we do not charge camping fees anywhere in this park. No park operators are on site.

The gate is closed outside the operating season and the road is not plowed.
