Cat Island Campground
Cat Island Campground is a boat-in only site on Ross Lake featuring four campsites with three tent platforms, two bear boxes, two picnic tables, and a dock with deep water suitable for swimming.
Access requires paddling or motorboat from Ross Dam, making it an ideal secluded destination for kayakers and canoeists seeking a remote backcountry experience.
Backcountry permits are required; the island's small size and limited sites make it popular for families with children due to natural boundaries.
