About
Curlew Lake State Park sits along the western shore of Curlew Lake in the Okanogan Highlands of northeastern Washington. The 87-acre park offers a mix of standard tent sites and RV sites with partial or full hookups, accommodating rigs up to 45 feet. Six pull-through sites make maneuvering larger vehicles easier. The campground provides modern amenities including flush restrooms, hot showers, drinking water, and a dump station. The park is centered around lake recreation. A free boat ramp and 80-foot dock provide easy water access, with sites 73-80 offering no-fee mooring dock privileges. Curlew Lake is stocked with rainbow trout and supports populations of largemouth bass, making it a popular fishing destination. A designated swimming area with nearby picnic facilities and barbecue grills rounds out the day-use options. The surrounding landscape of pine-covered hills and open meadows offers opportunities for wildlife watching and relaxation. The small town of Republic, known for its fossil beds at Stonerose Interpretive Center, is just a few miles south.
Directions
From Republic, drive north on State Route 21 for approximately 10 miles. Turn right onto State Park Road and follow signs to the park entrance at 62 State Park Road.
