Fishing, swimming and boating are available on nearby Conconully Reservoir and Conconully Lake. A good jump-off spot to Okanogan National Forest trails and campgrounds. Many Canadians use the park as a base for U.S. shopping trips in Oroville and south. Camping is first come, first served. An airport is a quarter-mile from the park, and a trail makes it convenient for anglers to fly in and fish for the day.
Visitors can boat, water ski or fish for trout, crappie, walleye or perch in the reservoir.
MarDon Resort is nearby. Near the Gingko Petrified Forest, the park offers an ideal base for exploring one of the state's most interesting natural areas. An interpretive center in Vantage three miles north of the camp ground displays petrified wood 15 million years old. The park has 50 camp sites, all with hookups, and opportunities for fishing and boating on the river behind Wanapum Dam. Great access to Banks Lake for fishing, boating and water skiing.
