River proximity: Many campers appreciate waterfront access at certain RV parks. According to a Riverbend visitor, "Wonderful check-in process. Super simple.

What you should know
Weather considerations: Summer heat requires planning for shade. "Found this on the way up to North Cascades on an unusually hot day. It hit the spot, easy, paved pull-thru sites with plenty of shade and hookups for electric and water," mentions a visitor to East Omak RV Park.
Swimming access limitations: Not all facilities with pools maintain consistent hours. "The swimming pool that is attached is not open on weekends. So that's a bummer. The sites are narrow and you're literally within a neighborhood, with views of the homes available at every site."
Potential crowding: Some parks can feel cramped when full. "Would be tight when camp is full but it was not while we were there. Host did great job of spacing rvs throughout camp for optimal privacy."
