Cinder Hill Campground features two boat launch areas on East Lake: a shallow northern ramp best suited for non-motorized watercraft, and a southern paved ramp with docks and parking lot for easier access.

Both sites enforce a 10 mph motorboat speed limit and require a $5 day-use recreation pass (or Northwest Forest Pass).

The campground itself offers overnight camping with amenities including potable water and restrooms, making it a convenient base for fishing and paddling on East Lake.
