Temporary boat-in campground closures at Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area

Beginning on July 11 and ending on Aug. 25,  three boat-in campgrounds at Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area will be closed to all public access to replace the pit toilets with vault toilet facilities.

• Goldsmith Campground, located between Keller Ferry and Hanson Harbor, will be closed July 11 through July 21.
• Penix Campground, located near Jones Bay Campground, will be closed July 18 through July 28.
• Ponderosa Campground, located on the Spokane River portion of the lake, will be closed Aug. 15 through Aug. 25.

When the work is completed in each campground, that campground will be reopened for public use.

This schedule is subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances.

The Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area’s incoming phone lines are also down.
