Three Creek Group Site - Okanogan-Wenatchee NF

Overview Three Creek Group Campground sits in forested, mountain terrain on the banks of the Entiat River in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest in the Entiat Ranger District. Fishing is allowed on this stretch of the river and hiking/motorized trails are nearby. Recreation Three Creek Campground is a great base camp for a variety of outdoor recreational activities. Anglers enjoy casting a line into the Entiat River near the campground on the stretch of the river above Entiat Falls. Carving through a wide, U-shaped valley, the river is dominated by relatively shallow riffles interspersed with pools, plunge pools and glides where the trout fishing is quite good. Populations of rainbow, cutthroat and eastern brook trout are found in this tributary. Selective gear rules apply to fishing in the Entiat River. See Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife for fishing rules and regulations. Hiking and motorized trails are nearby that can take you into high meadows or along the river into the Glacier Peak wilderness.
