Former state park with camping, swimming, and boat launch. Park is currently maintained by private interests. The island and nearby area was once the location of the town of Silcott. The last remnants of the town were flooded following the construction of Lower Granite Dam. The abandoned Chief Timothy Memorial Bridge is located a short distance west alongside the highway.

  • My grandfathers ranch was located where the park is now. One day he took me outside and said "this will all be under water some day, so I want you to never forget what it looked like". I never have.
