Camping at Albeni Cove near Oldtown

Public campground · Oldtown · 14 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

For recreation and services beyond the campground, Albeni Falls Visitor Center is nearby and offers exhibits on the dam and the area's natural history, with tours of the dam provided daily during the summer; the dam itself supports flood control and power production in addition to recreational access. The broader Lake Pend Oreille area supports a long list of activities boating, fishing, water sports, hiking, auto touring, picnicking, environmental education, historic and cultural sites, playgrounds and wildlife viewing so you can mix a few hours on the water with short drives or interpretive stops.

“Small campground, rather. No staff onsite. Didn’t love the spot since there was quite an odor either from the pond or restrooms. Restroom facilities were clean.”

How far ahead to book Albeni Cove

For July weekends, book about 174 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 104 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

See booking patterns
Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least
May44 days ahead133 days ahead9 days ahead48 days ahead

August67 days ahead168 days ahead21 days ahead88 days ahead
September34 days ahead87 days ahead11 days ahead40 days ahead

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (4,988 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
