Right on the river, good swimming hole with some good jumping spots. There is no water and only some of the spots have shade. We’ll be back!
If you use google maps, it will lead you down East Fork road with 2 abandoned buildings. Pigeon Point is southwest from here on 299, next to the river. We reserved the group site that has shade, bbq, and many tables. Unfortunately no running water.
Amazing wildlife scene and the sunset backdrop near the dam is one of the most majestic I've ever beheld. Check out the pics I took along my journey from central Oregon to kansas city Missouri. it's dedicate a must see. Looks like good fishin and maybe fun to swim in too
