About Osprey

Campers come to Osprey for sunshine and boating at Priest Lake, and for breathtaking views of the rugged Selkirk Mountains. Fishing is also a big draw, with trout just waiting to be caught. While here, watch for moose, grizzly and black bears, wolves, mountain lions and deer. Osprey, as inferred by the campground name, also inhabit the area.

Number of accommodations: 15

Jim, the host, is the most hard working and kind person you will ever meet. He keeps the campground and each site neat and tidy! He collects the garbage several times a day as well as attending to the bathrooms! We love the camp sites, especially those on the water. With only 15 sites it is a rather quiet place! Great trails and close to everything you might need!

Campground was fantastic! Great spot for tv or tents and right up near the lake. Had our own little private water area. Only downside is the restroom is a bit of a trek with little ones.
