Playing in Sandpoint

Managed by the U.S. Forest Service, this is a no fee area that has 13 campground sites accessible to small motor homes and travel trailers. Campground limit is 14 days.

Shaded by big ponderosa pines and Douglas firs, this remote site is a great destination on the lake’s eastern side. The rocky shoreline makes for some interesting exploration along the edge of the lake, while a pleasant grassy area adjoins the beach. It is a picturesque, wooded cove with sweeping views of the lake and its western shores. There is a dock here for boats arriving by water, but there is no public launch ramp. The primitive launch site here is private for use only by Whiskey Rock residents. Car-top boats can access the lake from the gravel beach.

FACILITIES: campground (no electrical hookups or large RVs), drinking water, telephone, dock, picnic tables, vault toilets, gravel beach
