Haag Cove Campground is at the north end of Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area. This beautiful campground lies on the banks of Lake Roosevelt in an open setting, giving outstanding views of the lake.
Haag Cove Campground - Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area
The one thing to be aware of about Haag Cove Campground is that there is no boat launch or courtesy dock. It is typically pretty quiet, but it may fill up on weekends and holidays.
Visitors will love the individual campsites spread along the shore of Lake Roosevelt, which offers epic views! The opposite side of the lake is surrounded by pine trees, which provide shade.
My only drawback to this campground is that it is in an open area and there is not much privacy as there is no real cover between campsites.
