About
Porcupine Bay Campground is tucked into shaded pines against the coulee wall, providing beautiful views of the Spokane Arm of Lake Roosevelt. The 130-mile reservoir, created by Grand Coulee Dam, offers excellent fishing for walleye, bass, rainbow trout, and salmon. Birders frequently spot peregrine falcons, bald eagles, osprey, great blue herons, and occasionally golden eagles in this area. The campground features 20 individual sites with varying vehicle length limits, a two-lane boat launch, swim beach, fish cleaning station, and an amphitheater. Seasonal amenities include flush toilets, potable water, dump station, and camp host from approximately May 1 through September 30. Vault toilets remain available year-round. Sites have fire rings and picnic tables, though campfires may be prohibited during high fire danger periods. Sites accommodate tents, RVs, and trailers with maximum vehicle lengths varying from 18 to 28 feet depending on the site. Several pull-through sites are available. The campground has no hookups. Cell service is unavailable, so reservations should be made in advance through Recreation.gov. Fort Spokane Visitor Center is located 10 miles north on Highway 25 and operates from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
