Twin Island

Twin Island is the closest campsite to Deep Cove. There are several small sites on the southern island and one large site with several smaller ones on the bigger northern island. Twin Island is an easy 1.5-hour paddle from Deep Cove and is a great destination for you kid's 1st overnight adventure.


Berg's Landing

Bishop Creek / Berg's Landing is 3 - 4 hours of paddling. It is composed of an alluvial fan with flat areas to camp. Located at the south end of Croker Island, there is some good fishing here in the fall.


Granite Falls

Granite Falls is by far the best campsite on Indian Arm. Easy beach access with several sites nestled into a grove of trees; it is a great place to spend the weekend. From here you can check out the Indian River estuary, Wigwam Inn or just hang out. Granite Falls is very busy during August.
