Three Mile Wash is a shoreline recreation area on Apache Lake offering direct water access via a boat launch and shoreline parking, making it ideal for boaters and anglers.

Located 3 miles south of Roosevelt Dam via the scenic but narrow Apache Trail (Highway 88, with a 40-foot vehicle length limit), the site provides day-use access with basic amenities including vault toilets and trash receptacles.

A Tonto Daily Pass ($8-12) is required; note that overnight camping is currently prohibited under a closure order, and the unpaved mountain road is not recommended for trailers over 22 feet.
