Lake Cascade is nestled in the majestic mountains of central Idaho about 75 miles north of Boise on State Highway 55. Popular for all types of boating, prevailing winds on the water make it especially well-suited for sailing and windsurfing. Rainbow trout, Coho salmon, small mouth bass and perch can be caught from the shore or by boat in the summer or through the ice in the winter.



Area Recreation
The North Fork of the Payette River, with its world-class kayaking rapids, flows to the south of Cascade. A challenging nine-hole golf course graces the southeast shore of the reservoir. During the winter 800 miles of groomed snowmobile trails are available in the area.

Camping
You will find 300 tent and RV campsites scattered around the reservoir. The campgrounds each feature restroom facilities and domestic water. Other amenities vary.

Group Camping
Cascade features two group camp areas, Snowbank and Poison Creek. These sites are open grassy areas with few trees, but they offer great seclusion for small to medium-sized groups. Contact the park for information.

Group Yurts
Osprey Point is the secluded, yet accessible, site of our three group yurts. Rent the two that share a common deck to sleep from 16-20. A third yurt nearby adds optional sleeping for 10. A few Tents and RV's can also be accommodated in the camp are. Yurts feature wood stoves for heat, propane lighting, a propane stove for cooking, beds and other furniture. You won't find a better view on the lake!
