About
Springy Point Campground occupies a forested peninsula overlooking Lake Pend Oreille and the Pend Oreille River, with views of the Cabinet and Selkirk Mountains. The glacier-carved lake plunges over 1,200 feet in places, making it one of the deepest natural lakes in the western U.S. The area is the traditional home of the Kalispell Indians, and French settlers named it "Pend Oreille" (meaning "ear pendant") after observing the large shell earrings worn by the Kalispell people. The campground features 36 standard non-electric sites and 2 walk-to tent sites, all with picnic tables and fire rings. Flush toilets, hot showers, potable water, and an RV dump station are available. An on-site boat ramp provides convenient access for boating, water skiing, jet skiing, and fishing, while a swimming beach offers a place to cool off. A small picnic shelter accommodating up to 25 people can be reserved. Sandpoint lies just across the Long Bridge and offers marinas, parks, shopping, and restaurants. The Albeni Falls Visitor Center nearby features exhibits on dam history and the natural features of the area. For wildlife watching, the Pack River Area provides opportunities to spot moose and birds.
