New listing
Riley Creek Recreation Area, situated on the banks of the Pend Oreille River, is the largest recreation area for the Albeni Falls Project, but still offers visitors peace and quiet and plenty of space to enjoy the scenic surroundings. Water sports are the most common activity at the lake, and boat ramps are provided at the campground: visitors enjoy kayaking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, water skiing and jet skiing. A hiking and biking trail is accessible from the campground, and fishing piers, horseshoe pits, a beach volleyball court and basketball court make this an ideal place for family trips or groups of friends. Campers are likely to spot bald eagles, osprey, bears and, most commonly, deer. Riley Creek is the largest campground at Albeni Falls, offering 67 campsites, all with electric and water hookups, plus two large reservable picnic shelters. As long as all equipment fits on the site pad, Riley Creek allows for an unlimited number of tents per site. Albeni Falls Dam was built in 1955 for flood control and power production on the Pend Oreille River. Lake Pend Oreille is surrounded by scenic mountains and is one of the largest and deepest natural lakes in the western United States, plunging to depths of more than 1,200 ft. in some areas. Behind the dam, the Pend Oreille River stretches 65 miles through a glacial-carved valley that separates three mountain ranges. The Albeni Falls Visitor Center features exhibits on the history of the dam and the natural features of the area, and tours of the dam are given daily during the summer. The nearby town of Laclede, Idaho offers gas and grocery services.
