Lind Coulee Point

Lind Coulee Point is an unimproved boat launch providing access to Lower Crab Creek and the Potholes Reservoir near Moses Lake. This year-round access site offers parking areas and outhouses, making it a functional starting point for paddlers and boaters exploring the Potholes Reservoir system. A Washington Discover Pass is required unless you have a Vehicle Access Pass from an eligible hunting or fishing license.

The Potholes Reservoir, formed by O'Sullivan Dam as part of the Columbia Basin Project, features numerous glacial depressions that create varied paddling conditions. The surrounding landscape includes the peaceful Columbia National Wildlife Refuge, offering scenic exploration opportunities. Fishing is popular here, with summer being the prime season after spring spawning concludes in April-May. The reservoir's relatively shallow waters with numerous inlets make it suitable for kayaks and canoes, though paddlers should be prepared for exposure as the open water can become rough in windy conditions typical of the eastern Washington landscape.
