Today, we operate 15 recreation facilities along the river, below Merwin Dam and along the shores of Yale, Merwin and Swift reservoirs. Combined, these recreation areas provide the public with 304 campsites in four campgrounds, 233 picnic sites and nine boat launch locations. Our Lewis River recreation facilities begin at Island Access, approximately two miles east of Woodland, Washington, on State Highway 503, and continue 45 miles upstream to Eagle Cliff Park at the east end of Swift Reservoir.
