Hawk Creek Harbor is a sheltered inlet on the shoreline of Lake Roosevelt, the impounded Columbia River in eastern Washington. The harbor is part of the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area. The primary access point for paddlers is the adjacent Hawk Creek Campground, which is open year-round and offers a beach area suitable for launching and landing non-motorized craft. The campground provides a base for exploration, with winter rates noted as $9 per night from October 1 to April 30. The harbor itself is a scenic area with views of the surrounding highlands and Lake Roosevelt. A notable feature is a waterfall located at the far end of the campground, which is fed by Hawk Creek and can be spectacular during spring high flow, providing a distinctive auditory backdrop for paddlers and campers. Wildlife sightings can include bald eagles, which have been observed building nests in trees near the water. The overall aesthetic is characterized by a mix of pine trees, big sagebrush, and aspen on the hillsides overlooking the water. A significant concern for paddlers is water quality and general cleanliness, as the beach area has been reported to have a considerable amount of trash left by recreational users. The harbor is near other points of interest like Porcupine Bay and Welsh Creek Cove, suggesting potential for extended paddling routes along the Lake Roosevelt shoreline. The area is managed for recreation, and paddlers should be aware of potential boat traffic from other users accessing the lake.
