Because of its remote location, Deadwood Reservoir is quiet and unpopulated, making for great fishing for Atlantic, Chinook and Kokanee salmon, and rainbow and cutthroat trout. Boating, water skiing, canoeing and kayaking are popular on the lake. A boat ramp is located on-site.
Many trails for hiking, mountain biking, horseback and off-road vehicle riding are in the area.
This primitive campground offers several campsites, many of which are on the waterfront. Vault toilets and drinking water are provided. Roads and parking spurs within the site are dirt.
The campground is situated on a bluff overlooking the reservoir. All sites have lake views. A mixed-growth pine forest covers the campground, offering plentiful shade. Summer wildflowers are abundant.
From Boise, Idaho, take State Highway 55 north. At Banks, take Highway 17/Banks-Lowman Highway east to Lowman. Turn left on Highway 21. Continue along Highway 17 over Banner Summit. Turn west on Forest Road 579. Continue on FR 579 to Deadwood Reservoir. The campground is on the southeast end.
There is a $5 fee for vehicles entering the campground for day use.
