Chinook Bay Campground
Chinook Bay Campground is composed of 13 campsites on the north side of Little Redfish Lake on Little Redfish Creek and is situated in a lodgepole pine overstory. All sites are first-come, first-serve. Kayaking, canoeing, wading, hiking, biking, and floating are popular activities. Redfish Lake offers interpretive trails, a visitor center, interpretive programs, equestrian stables, boat rentals, and a dump station. Several trailheads are in the surrounding area including Alpine Way and Redfish trail which lead into the Sawtooth Wilderness, and Boundary Creek trail which leads into the White Clouds Wilderness. Photography of the beautiful Sawtooth and White Clouds Wilderness areas and surrounding lakes and mountains is very popular here. Motorized watercraft are not allowed on Little Redfish Lake.
