About
Edgewater Campground is perched along the banks of the Pend Oreille River in the Colville National Forest at an elevation of 2,000 feet. The quiet, family-friendly campground sits on a bluff on the east bank of the river, with many sites offering scenic views of the water and surrounding Selkirk Mountains. The picturesque area is surrounded by cedar, hemlock and Douglas fir, with a forest floor covered in thimbleberry, wild rose and other shrubs. The campground is popular for boating and fishing, with an on-site boat ramp providing river access. Anglers enjoy trout and bass fishing in the Pend Oreille River. Nearby hiking opportunities include Terry Trail and Box Canyon. Wildlife watching for moose, white-tailed deer and endangered woodland caribou is another draw for visitors. The campground features vault toilets and potable water from faucets. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring. Day use areas with great river views are also available. The campground is operated by a concessionaire and reservations are available through Recreation.gov.
