About
Kettle Falls Locust Grove Group Site sits on the northern section of Lake Roosevelt, the 130-mile reservoir on the Columbia River created by Grand Coulee Dam. The two group sites are spacious and set within a grove of locust trees overlooking the lake near the historic site of Old Kettle Falls, now dormant under 80 feet of water. The facility is 0.25 miles from the main Kettle Falls Campground, which has a multi-lane boat launch making the lake highly accessible for boaters and anglers. The lake supports walleye, bass, rainbow trout, salmon, and sturgeon fishing. Wildlife in the area includes moose, elk, deer, and bald eagles. St. Paul's Mission, managed by the National Park Service, is located about two miles from the campground. Both group sites are standard nonelectric with no hookups. Site A accommodates up to 75 people and 35 vehicles; Site B holds up to 50 people and 25 vehicles. Gravel driveways and shade are available. Fire rings are provided for campfires when fire danger is not critical. Water faucets operate seasonally from May 1 through September 30. A dump station is available nearby for a $10 fee ($5 with Senior/Access pass).
