Kingsley Campground

Kingsley Campground offers boat ramp access to Ditch Creek and Green Point Upper Reservoir in the Hood River area, with nearby camping available at Wyeth Campground (reservable via Recreation.gov; phone 541-308-1700). The access point is family-friendly and particularly well-suited for kayakers and paddleboarders. This is a scenic spot with Hood River views and is stocked with fish for anglers.

**Important Regulations:** Only electric motors are permitted on this reservoir with a strict 5 mph speed limit—no combustion engines are allowed. This makes it an ideal, peaceful paddling destination for non-motorized craft. Be aware that the reservoir is currently undergoing a major expansion project by the Farmers Irrigation District that began in 2017, which may affect water levels and access. A new boat ramp is planned for use when water levels rise. For paddleboarders, the recommendation is to pump up your SUP at the parking area before carrying it down to the water near the ramp.

For current fishing regulations and conditions, consult the [Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife website](https://myodfw.com/recreation-report/fishing-report/willamette-zone). The site is located just off Interstate 84 (Wyeth exit #51), making it easily accessible for day trips or overnight camping stays.
