About
Cozy Cove Campground occupies the southeast shore of Deadwood Reservoir at 5,300 feet elevation in the Boise National Forest. The remote location keeps the area quiet and unpopulated, making it ideal for anglers targeting Chinook salmon, Kokanee salmon, rainbow trout, and cutthroat trout. All 16 campsites are situated on a bluff with lake views, shaded by a mixed-growth pine forest abundant with summer wildflowers. The campground includes basic amenities: vault toilets, potable drinking water, and a concrete boat ramp for direct reservoir access. Boating, water skiing, canoeing, and kayaking are popular activities on the lake. The surrounding area offers extensive trails for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and off-road vehicle use. Access requires travel on Forest Service roads, with dirt roads and parking spurs throughout the campground. The remote setting and primitive facilities make this a destination for those seeking a quieter outdoor experience away from developed recreation areas.
