Blackwell Island RV Park

Great spot on the Spokane river. We spent one day at this RV park and really enjoyed it. Had a great view of the river. The sights are large and most are pull through. There is about a half mile loop around the park if you’re in for a good walk. Part of it goes through a short woods. Beach and a place to dock your boat if you have one and are fishing the lake CDA. Shower house and rest rooms are spotless. The park is kept very clean. Full hook ups if needed. There are many places to eat out or re supply in the area. Would come back on our way though this area again.

Nicely located and well maintained large rv park on Lake Coeur d’Alene. This park offers both lake front and non-lakefront spaces with full hookups. This park offered free but poor WiFi unless in or near the club house. Kayaks speedboat in pontoon boats are available for rent from the front office. This park could use more foliage between sites otherwise a nice place to stay near downtown, stores and restaurants. We would stay here again.

This is a RV resort, they have everything you may need. Full hookups, big and hot showers, a store, laundry. We had been boon docking for a little over a week so it was nice to have a bit of luxury for a couple nights. The best part, right on the water. We took our paddle boards out and it was great!

Large site. Well managed. On the Spokane River.

We stayed here early summer and loved it, the park is well maintained and loved the beach area. We used to live in the area so it was nice to use the park as a home base while we revisited our favorite areas. I did knock off 1 star due to our first trip having to park in a very tight area, we were told to have the trailer tongue right at the front of the space and park behind the trailer (not sure why), this left us very little room to unhook and do a 4 point turn to avoid driving over the curbing and grass. Then found out I was 2” too close to the water and my slide would hit so had to rehook to adjust the trailer. Not a huge deal but I just don’t know why I had to park that way. Second trip the park was drying out and grass was mostly dead, but this time they let me park how I wanted. Overall we love the park but in the future will try to be more selective of the spots and time of year

Amazing Rv park! Astonishing views, friendly staff, large open spaces and location was perfect! My girlfriend and I already can’t wait to stay again.

There is mostly positives about my 3 nights here. The lake is gorgeous and plenty of golf courses. Plus the conveniences of grocery stores and Walmart. The staff were friendly, the laundry and showers clean, but the WiFi was almost non existent outside of the office or library building. The beaches were very nice for both people and dogs. I rented a kayak for a couple of hours from the campground. The Tubbs Hill lakeside hike is a must do. I appreciated space and trails for my dog.

Beautiful location convenient to downtown and on the water. The sites are close to others which for us isn’t a big deal but don’t expect isolation. It is very quiet after hours except for the rare houseboat that may drive by with music playing. Wifi is bad. Really bad. That’s not a big deal for us, but for some it may be a problem. There is a wifi room for those occasions you must connect.

We only stayed one night on our way passing through, but wish we could have stayed more! The park is big and has all the amenities you would want for fun in the sun. Boat launch and beach access were in great condition. Local access to shops and food were just minutes away if needed.

Blackwell is a large, open RV resort that’s efficiently run. Surprisingly, they only book sites over the phone. We had a pull thru site #125 which was gravel with a picnic table and shade tree. We liked its orientation (facing river) since the hot afternoon sun was hitting the utility side or hillside of the RV. They had a clean beach along the Spokane River with plenty of high quality beach chairs to relax in and watch the parade of boats coming from upriver. There’s a library and wi-fi room that really wasn’t much better signal than the rest of the park which was mediocre. The laundry room was large and extremely clean along with the individual public bath/showers. They’ve added cute touches around the premises. A kids BMX dirt bike area, secret gardens, walking nature paths and a pond with their own resident ducks. We’ll definitely would go back!

This is a very nice camp ground on the lake and it’s very beautiful only problem is they allow a pressure washing RV service into the park all day and we’ll into the evening so unless you like listening to a small gas engine run do not use this park

First, I am very greatful they were able to find a spot for us last minute. Electricity for A/C in the unpressidented heatwave was a relief.

PROS:

• Full hookups
• Beautiful beach area on the river.
• Swimming, Kayaking, SUP, Motorized boating all available just steps away.
• Showers and restrooms (didn't use)
• Easy access from main hwy
• Easy checkin and friendly staff
• Cable and mediocre wifi
• Very close to town

CONS:

• Sites VERY close so no privacy at all.
• Very limited shade
• wifi could be stronger
• Road noise if on the perimeter along the fence

We went past a couple of other campgrounds in the area. If we needed accommodations in coeur d'Alene again, we would stay here instead of the others we saw.

Very friendly and easy access for big rigs. Water access was great

Nice river access. Swimming beach, great floating. Showers and BR closed. Needs some TLC, picnic tables ready to break. Sites not very level. Logging trucks start early and run all day every day, so loud. Heavy traffic Hwy 95.

9/14 to 9/17/19
