Green Point Reservoir / Kingsley Reservoir is a man made reservoir owned by Farmers Irrigation District. The land around the upper and lower reservoirs are owned by Hood River County and managed by the Forestry Department. Revenue from the management of the forest goes directly to the Hood River County General Fund for support of the County government and services for the citizens of Hood River County. Part of this forestland is designated as a campground and OHV staging area. 

Boats with combustion engines are NOT ALLOWED. Electric motors only with a 5 MPH limit. For fishing regulations, please go to the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife website: https://myodfw.com/recreation-report/fishing-report/willamette-zone

Farmers Irrigation District began in 2017 a major project to increase the capacity of the reservoir. A result of this increase in water capacity, eliminated the existing campground. Hood River County has redesigned the campground and improved the staging/day use area. Additional details about the project are available in the Summer 2022 County Enews article available here.
