North Gorge Campground
Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area
North Gorge is a small, but popular, campground at the northeast edge of the park. A few sites are large enough for an RV, but most are built for tent camping. The campground is set in a grove of pines on the edge of the lake. A boat launch and dock are on the north or right side of the main loop. In the summer, North Gorge is busy on the weekends.
North Gorge is a reservation only campground with 11 sites. It can be reserved year round. However, the sites are not plowed in the winter time. There are picnic tables and campfire rings.
