"I headed to this campground with the intention of grabbing a site, it was around 3pm on a Saturday so I figured I was out of luck and continued on down the road to look for a spot to camp next to the river"
"My site was not so good because it was close to the others (luckily no one was there) it was also next to the Dumpster and the Toilets. Otherwise it was good."
$32 - $96 / night
"The river is only a five minute walk away, and we spent most of one day there. I was very surprised by how quiet it was for only being an hour outside of Seattle."
"The campground was quiet, not too crowded (Sunday - Tuesday) and so close to many trails. A quick walk to the river was a nice way to finish the day."
$32 - $76 / night
"Near enough to Seattle, but feels far away. Yes, there are trains, reserve away from the sites closest to the tracks if that bothers you."
"It’s not a long drive from the city of Seattle. You have the river to play with in the hot summer days and have enough room to play around your site."
"The campground is next to a classy laundromat, and I say classy because it’s probably one of the nicest laundromats in the area that even has a dumpsite for RVs."
"The campground is in 500+ acre Tolt-McDonald Park, far enough away from any busy road so that there is no traffic noise, just the sound of the Tolt River rapids."
$30 - $36 / night
"Although the Camp Ground and facilities are great at Tinkham, my advice would be to get into your lifted Off-Roader and hit the mountain roads for this camping trip of a lifetime!"
"It is a small Forest Service campground next to the south fork of the Snoqualmie river. The site well shaded and fairly privet for the most part."
$32 - $68 / night
"Located about two hours from any significant population base, accessible off of a (mostly) dirt forest service road, you'll marvel at the serenity of this idyllic campground."
"Tip: get your firewood BEFORE turning off highway 2. We were there three days and never saw a host. Drove to multiple campgrounds to see if the host was there and no such luck."
"According to the researchers at the Whale Museum (located in the lighthouse at Limekiln Point SP), the orcas that we saw were the first resident orcas spotted that season!"
"couple miles East of Skykomish, up a paved road, the campsite is just before you go over the bridge on your right and had enough room for high clearance vehicles to pull into it and smaller cars have roadside"
"We really enjoyed our spot off of Old Cascades Highway. There are a few good tent spots that are pretty tucked away."
$50 / night
"Skylomish is a fairly short drive away from the city but towards the mountains. You have a great view of the water in some places and it’s still pretty peaceful and quiet."
"Hike out to Blanca Lake!"
LegendThis is a huge USFS campground in the Wenatchee National Forest, with something like 4 separate loops and separate entrances from the road. Most of the sites are reservable on recreation.gov but they have a few FCFS sites (these sites aren’t marked with an“R” on the post).
We got lucky on a Friday with a FCFS site when all the reservable sites were marked as “reserved” for the weekend.
$25/night, pay with cash or check at self-registration kiosk. Park is run by a concessionaire. Nicely kept, very clean, host on site, pit toilets and water spigots available. No dump or water fill, no hookups. There are trash dumpsters but no recycling. Hard to get a site with an open sky view for solar.
Many of the sites are pull through (curve along the camp site type). Some sites are right along the creek, beautiful and peaceful, and some are right on the road. There are trails and nice walks that take you to Lake Wenatchee, which is beautiful.
Good cell reception for ATT and Verizon.
LegendNice state campground, well kept, beautiful lake if you can get one of the lakeside spots. We had site#11, and the road noise was just too too loud for me. Definitely try to get a spot away from the road. We arrived after the ranger shack at the entrance had closed for the day, but they have a really easy phone registration process if you arrive after hours but before 10pm. After 10 pm they say to just pick an unreserved spot and pay in the morning.
Showers are free. Cell reception was good.

ScoutNice little campground on the creek. Bathrooms were clean, and camp host is awesome. No cell service, no bear boxes. Had no issue finding a first come site on a Friday afternoon.
ScoutDrove out there to find out that it's closed such a waste of time ! 6-12-25
ScoutLovely area such beautiful surroundings. But be very cautious as near one of the camp sites are very dangerous plants that are fatal and they are lined all around the campground so not recommended if you have children.
ScoutWent there to stay during the Northwest Fiber event, June 5-8, 2025. Stayed in RV-2 campground area because we thought this would be convenient to the event.
First, there are lousy amenities, as in basically none except a porta-potty. No functional dump station. Biggest issues are:
The toilet / shower building is a hike from the campground and is LOCKED during the night and even during the day on random days. On a Sunday afternoon at 2 PM it was locked. This is stupid because you need a code to get in so it's always locked, yet the facility personnel lock it with a deadbolt so NOBODY can get in, even with a code.
We stayed Thursday - Monday and for 12 hours on Saturday and on Sunday there were car races going on 150 yards away with a bunch of Trump supporting yahoos roaring around in souped up very noisy cars all day long. My sound meter read 100 Db at my campsite for 12 hours straight. Dust, noise and smell of burning oil and gasoline were annoying.
Porta-potty, the only option for relieving oneself when the shower and toilet building was locked (which was most of the time) was filthy and disgusting.
In summary, a major waste of money and a crap camping experience. Would not stay here again.
LegendGreat boondocking. We made it fine in our 26ft class c, but the big sharp-edged rocks were concerning to drive over. And when we left we found a giant rock wedged between the two back tires (the dually tires). Not sure if we would go back, for this reason. But the lake level was really low when we stayed there, so there was plenty of available space for camping. A van or two, a truck camper, tent campers, a little scamp, and lots and lots of day time ATV users shared this space with us.
Cell service was good for both ATT and Verizon. Even though the area looks so remote, it’s right next to the road, so you have road noise that’s fairly loud. There was some trash, normal amounts, nothing horrible, until we came across this massive dumping ground of cans and food waste and broken glass and just general garbage, a couple miles north, along the lake. It was so disheartening.
GuideThe park rangers are so nice and helpful it was like stepping back in time . The spaces are very private and spread out. Everything is clean including the bathrooms. I had a hot shower one day and a luke warm one the next. Watch out for stinging nettles on the paths to the river if wearing shorts. Very painful.
