Peninsula Campground
Closed — Closed for the winter season. The campground typically closes due to snow and winter conditions at this 3,000-foot elevation.
Hydrologic Outlook issued April 10 at 4:30PM PDT by NWS Pendleton OR
ESFPDT Moderate rain this weekend in the Washington Cascades and northern Blue Mountains combined with snowmelt from above normal temperatures will lead to river rises this weekend and early next week. Most rivers are currently running at low levels and the increased streamflows will not be a problem. However, the Naches River at Cliffdell and at Naches are expected to rise above Action Stage early Saturday through Monday. The Grande Ronde River at Troy is expected to rise but stay barely below Action Stage Monday through Tuesday morning. Only localized minor flooding is expected. Please monitor the latest river forecasts from the National Weather Service for additional information.
About
Peninsula Campground is a dispersed camping area located on the eastern shore of Rimrock Lake in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. At 3,000 feet elevation, the campground offers a scenic lakeside setting surrounded by rugged mountain terrain and conifer forests. The dispersed nature of the campground provides a more primitive camping experience while still offering basic amenities including vault toilets and a boat launch. Rimrock Lake is a popular destination for boating, fishing, swimming, and mountain biking. The lake is open to fishing year-round and supports populations of kokanee and other fish species. The campground's location provides convenient access to both motorized and non-motorized boating opportunities. Sites accommodate both RVs and tents, though this is a more rustic setting without water, hookups, or other developed amenities. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no advance reservations. Visitors must physically arrive at the campground to purchase and claim a site. The area sees heavy use during peak season due to its lakeside location and recreational opportunities.
