Family Fish Camp

Join a family weekend of fishing and lodging at cozy Camp Angelos on the Sandy River. Family Fish Camp is for families who want to learn more about how to jump-start their fishing experiences in the PNW. Passionate, experienced anglers teach essential skills for all ages, and your family will have the opportunity to recreate in the great outdoors while building connections in the community.

Kids and adults can fish the pond, play games, plan their next fishing adventure, and participate in educational activities such as fish identification, casting and reeling, angler ethics and regulations, gear and equipment, water quality testing, and fish art projects.

Lodging

Family Fish Camp is located at Camp Angelos along the Sandy River in Corbett, OR.

All cabins are heated and handicapped accessible. Families will be housed together alongside other families attending the camp. This means that cabins are shared and co-ed. Please contact us with any questions or concerns regarding this arrangement.
