In the 1930s, construction of the Grand Coulee Dam began across the Columbia River giving birth to the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area. This Northwest treasure has been welcoming visitors to her 660 miles of pristine shores ever since. The National Park Service as well as the Colville and Spokane Indians have done a wonderful job of maintaining the lake's natural beauty that attracts new vacationers each year.

Wildlife abounds on the shores of Lake Roosevelt -- it is, after all, a wilderness along much of its shoreline. Mule deer, moose, turkeys, coyotes, cougars, big horn sheep, black bears, and raptors are some of the critters you may spot. The bears are especially fun to watch in September when they search the draws for their favorite chokecherries. Drifting along on a houseboat allows you a front row seat to the beauty of nature.

The fishing on Lake Roosevelt is legendary. Anglers travel from far and wide for the world-class walleye. Large and small mouth bass as well as white sturgeon also ply the tranquil waters.

From the Grand Coulee north to Canada, Lake Roosevelt extends 150 miles offering hundreds of miles of sandy beaches, pine studded mountains, countless sheltered coves and glassy water perfect for water skiing. Check the current lake level here.

Dakota Columbia Houseboats is centrally located on the lake at our newly refurbished 7 Bays Marina. Our family has spent more than 20 years at Roosevelt and we know that our marina, complete with the Blue Coyote Grille, is an excellent starting point for your exploration of this masterpiece in nature. Simply put, this is greatest lake in the Pacific Northwest!
