Best Campgrounds near Clarkston, WA

This is a really lovely RV park, well cared for, nice owners. It’s pretty small, and it’s got a really peaceful and quiet vibe. The main road is right there but it was surprisingly quiet. There is propane fill here at $3.50/gal, not bad. 

Shower (there’s only one) was nice and clean, 4 quarters for 7 minutes. No laundry facilities here on site. There’s a large book & DVD lending library in the office. There’s zero cell reception here but the wifi was decent, it reached our spot in the back, though it did shut down for a few hours in the night. 

Really liked it here. We used the Passport America discount, and with taxes/fees paid $18 for a FHU pull through site, so roughly double that for full price. There’s not much to do here though if you don’t have a car. No place to walk to, no place to take your dogs to walk. Good if you’re passing through.

Washington State Fish & Wildlife has established 8 campgrounds along Tucannon Rd, free with Discover Pass, 21 day stay limit. This review and photos are for campsite #8.

There is a pit toilet, and individual sites with a picnic table and fire pit, but nothing else. The sites are sort of close together, no division between them, and would be awkward if they were completely full. The campgrounds get progressively less crowded the further up the road you go, so by campground #8 it was completely empty where campgrounds 1 through 4 were pretty packed. 

Zero cell reception here in this entire area. This is a popular area for hunters, so during hunting season heads up for that.

Along Tucannon Rd there are several free state campgrounds, and right where the road turns to dirt there is this USFS campground. It’s $8/night, no host on site, no reservations, self pay at the board. Really peaceful and quiet, very beautiful. 

At the end of the campground is an Environmental Learning Center/ kids camp, so you may get some traffic from that. There’s also a little hiking trail that was overgrown and unmaintained when we were there, it was really beautiful though. Pit toilets here, no water and no trash, no amenities. Zero cell reception in this entire area, pretty much all the way until hwy 12. 

The sites here at this campground all have different configurations, most didn’t look level, but there were a bunch that would have fit our 26ft class c. Sites 15 & 16 are in one huge area off by themselves (together), so a big group would fit here well (2 car limit per site, 8 people limit per site), so 4 cars and 16 people for the large lot with 15 & 16. 

There’s a nice creek running through here, so the sound was nice and soothing. 

When looking at directions to get here, heads up that the roads that connect Tucannon Rd to Hwy 12 going east are not suitable for big rigs, so you’ll have to drive west all the way to Hwy 12 then to Delaney and then take 12 east from there.

DIRECTIONS: 18 miles east of Lewiston, Idaho at mile post 18.6 on U.S. Highway 12

Flat, quiet, clean, and cheap. 15 RV sites and 3 tent sites. Full hookup, clean and large shower rooms and restrooms.

Camp hosts are great caretakers and quick to greet new guests.

Plenty of trees for shade, easy drivable path down to the river, nice local neighborhood to stroll through. BBQ stands at each site and two large community fire pits. Paved site for RV (any size), concrete pad with table. 2 bars cell signal.

Check the pics for accepted passes that drop the prices by 1/2.

At 18 dollars I was skeptical before l arrived. Getting everything for 9 dollars is unbelievable but true.
