Exquisitely beautiful area formed by melting glaciers forming the "Alta Coulee". The campground is situated at the South end of Alta Lake, opened in 1946 and operated by my Grandparents until 1980 when my father decided to continue operations, adding Outfitting and Guide services into the Pasayten and Sawtooth Wilderness areas. Covid put a halt on business for a few years but we are making some gradual upgrades and changes to offer camping and horseback riding experiences again. The lake is 220 acres known to Anglers near and far. Plenty of room for the sunseekers wanting to play in the water on paddle boards, kayaks, jet skis, and water skiing. An 18-hole Golf Course resides at the North end of the lake and white water rafting just a few miles down the hill on the Methow River. We will offer guided horseback rides by the hour on site for the season 2024. Must book in advance. Free Wifi available near the office only.

From the moment you see the Whistlin Pines sign you know this place is going to be special! Beautiful property, great access to the lake with a cut lil dock and beach area to access the lake. The ducks playing in the water was so fun to hear! Large site with so many options for set up, even two perfect trees for our hammock. Lots of firewood on hand to purchase and horseback riding available. Tara was so nice and came to greet us. Sadly, my little got too scared out camping but we will definitely be back with friends so he's not so scared. 10/10 recommend especially if you have a group!

Had a great weekend. The lake was busy over Labor Day weekend lots of boats and jet skis but still able to enjoy being on our paddle boards. Easy access to the lake from our camp site. Beautiful views of the mountain range.

Great location! Beautiful calm lake

This is a fantastic place! It is at the opposite end of the lake from the State Park so it is very quiet. The cabins are primitive but serviceable from what I could see. The tent site has easy access to the lake, potable water and the portapottys. The lake is gorgeous in the morning for paddleboarding.
