About this lake

Fee Reservoir is a 100-acre reservoir east of Fort Bidwell in far northeastern Modoc County, managed by the Bureau of Land Management's Applegate Field Office.

On the water

Modoc County maintains the boat ramp, which takes motorized and non-motorized boats and has parking for trailers. The reservoir is stocked with rainbow trout; kayaking, canoeing and wildlife viewing are also popular. The county asks boaters to help keep invasive species out. California requires a Mussel Fee Sticker on boats used in fresh water.

Camping

The small campground has nine tables, metal fire rings and barbecue pits, with a double and a single vault restroom. The stay limit is 14 days.

Getting there & access

Getting there

From Cedarville take Modoc County Road 1 north 26 miles to Fort Bidwell, turn east on County Road 6 (Barrel Springs Road) about 4.5 miles, take the right fork and go about 3 miles.

Mussel sticker

Registered boats used in fresh water need a current California Mussel Fee Sticker. Arrive clean, drained and dry.
