Accessible via a single road with turnaround space at the end, Liberty Recreation Site accommodates RVs up to 26 feet across its roughly 10 sites within Wenatchee National Forest. The US Forest Service manages this paid campground where campers can expect standard amenities including picnic tables and fire pits at each site. A clean pit toilet sits near the entrance, though the site provides no water service or trash collection.
The campground sits in a forested setting that some visitors find overgrown, creating a more enclosed atmosphere among the trees. Cell service proves inconsistent, with Verizon and AT&T showing zero to minimal reception in most areas, though higher elevation spots may pick up a couple bars on AT&T. Most sites offer a mix of sun and shade throughout the day.
megan L. notes the location sits "just before the small old ghost town of Liberty" with "lots of off roads and hiking trails to explore." The area typically remains uncrowded during weekdays, with campers reporting minimal noise from other sites or road traffic.
The 14-day stay limit and lack of services make this spot well-suited to self-sufficient campers who pack out their own trash and bring adequate water. For additional camping options in the region, see campgrounds near Wenatchee National Forest.
