TUMWATER CAMPGROUND CLOSED
In 2014 Tumwater Campground was closed due to risk of debris flows and flooding resulting from conditions created by the Chiwaukum Fire. Tumwater Campground was already suffering from aging infrastructure at that time. In the intervening years of closure the campground sewage treatment system was determined to be inoperable and in need of replacement, hazard trees in the area accumulated, and other infrastructure passed the point of serviceability.
The Forest would like to redesign and repair Tumwater Campground to return it to service while also performing stream restoration activities in the adjacent Chiwaukum Creek. Based on recent cost estimates for design and reconstruction of other campgrounds on the Okanagan-Wenatchee National Forest funded through the Great American Outdoors Act, we estimate the cost of redeveloping the Tumwater Campground at approximately 3 million dollars. Although the Forest Service has strong interest and support from community stakeholders for the redevelopment of this campground, we have not yet secured this level of funding for the project. We continue to pursue opportunities to fund the redevelopment of this campground and to reduce our backlog of deferred facility maintenance.

Unfortunately, this campground was destroyed in a fire and is indefinitely closed. Check first to see if a miracle happens and it reopens!
