About

US Forest Service campground. This boat-in campground offers a floating dock with a six boat capacity. Accessible year-round. There are four tent sites, three fire rings, four tables, and one toilet available. These sites are located right on the shore of Lake Chelan, with a short trail to view Domke Falls. There is no access to Domke Lake, Domke Lake National Recreation Trail #1280, or Domke Mountain Lookout Trail #1280.1 from Domke Falls. Pack out what you pack in. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
