What to know in Pend Oreille County
About 37% of WDFW District 1, which includes Pend Oreille County, is public land, mostly national forest, so public camping is nearby. Private ground offers something different: a quiet spot, a river bank or a base close to your hunting unit.
Be specific: tent or RV, how many nights, how many people and vehicles, and how you’ll handle water, toilets and trash. For anything recurring or commercial, check with Pend Oreille County Community Development first, because county codes regulate RV occupancy and campgrounds.
Summer burn bans are common in Eastern Washington, so plan on no campfires unless the owner and current restrictions allow them. For owners: RCW 4.24.210 lists camping among the activities where letting people use your land without a fee limits your liability.
