Northwest Passage Campground at Ponderosa State Park offers 22 first-come, first-serve campsites along the Payette River with a central swimming area ideal for launching kayaks and non-motorized watercraft.

The campground features vault toilets, potable water, fire rings, and picnic tables, with sites becoming increasingly private and well-foliaged beyond site #8.

Located 7 miles north of McCall on Warren Wagon Road, it provides excellent access for paddling both the Payette River and Payette Lake, plus nearby fishing opportunities and hiking trails.
