About
Evans Campground occupies a long, narrow footprint along Lake Roosevelt's northeastern shore within the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area. This orientation gives nearly every site a clear view of the 130-mile reservoir created by Grand Coulee Dam. The campground offers 43 individual sites plus group camping, a year-round boat launch, and a day-use area with a covered picnic shelter and swim beach. The surrounding landscape features thick forests of ponderosa pine, Douglas fir, and maple trees providing welcome shade during hot summer days. Wildlife is abundant, including moose, elk, deer, and bald eagles. Lake Roosevelt supports dozens of fish species including walleye, bass, rainbow trout, salmon, and sturgeon. Nearby attractions include the historic St. Paul's Mission (11 miles south in Kettle Falls), Fort Colville, and the Sherman Drive scenic loop. The campground operates on a reservation-only basis through Recreation.gov.
