Pend Oreille Lake is quite large and has many species of fish living in it. Check the fishing regulations through a link on our Idaho Fishing page.

Recreation
The lake provides the recreation here whether it is swimming at the beach, fishing along the shore or boating.

We saw no wildlife but there was a sign indicating deer, elk and black bear are present. Also, Osprey and Bald Eagles fish the lake.
Fee Schedule
Each campsite costs $20 per night and there is a $10 fee for your extra vehicle.
Reservations
You may reserve your campsite on line at recreation.gov but there may be an additional $9 non refundable reservation fee. However, I would recommend reserving a site as you would likely not find an opening on a summer weekend.
