Campground: Beaver

Area Status: Closed

Beaver Campground is nestled among large, old maple and sycamore trees, offering a quiet and private family camping experience. Its location along the Wind River provides opportunities for anglers, but other recreational activities can be found in abundance here as well. On-site playground equipment and horseshoe games offer fun for all ages and the surrounding forest allows visitors the chance to discover many animal and plant species.

The campground is located along the Wind River with access to fishing, hiking, biking and picnicking. This site is very near the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Wind River Hatchery, where you may view spring Chinook.
