What to do
Explore Palouse Falls: Located within driving distance of Tucannon River RV Park, the 198-foot waterfall offers dramatic views of the surrounding canyon. "Ran into the mother of all dust storms about 40 miles west of here near Othello and ended up posting up in Connelly. Added a day to the trip but was a sight to behold. Wow!!" notes a visitor to Tucannon River RV Park.
Bike along riverside trails: Premier RV Resort at Granite Lake offers access to paved trails beside the Snake River. A camper reports, "Enjoyed the quiet of the park as it is tucked away behind Costco with no busy roads around it. Beautiful riverfront spots. Great biking trails and was able to easily bike to and from work."
Use campgrounds as a base for regional exploration: Many visitors use these parks as central locations for day trips. "Very quiet spot to use as a base to visit The Falls and other attractions in the area," mentions one camper about the Tucannon River RV Park.

What you should know
Pet policies vary significantly: Some parks have strict rules about pets. At Peaceful Pines RV Park, a camper cautions: "I've never been so harassed before by a campground for having a pet. Definitely not pet friendly. There is literally one tree they make you stay at and you can't walk the campground with your dog."
Wi-Fi availability fluctuates: Internet access is inconsistent across campgrounds. "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," reports a visitor to Tucannon River RV Park.
Seasonal operations affect availability: While some parks like Tucannon River RV Park operate year-round, others have limited seasons. Pullman RV Park operates only from April through November, and Premier RV Resort at Granite Lake runs from February through November.
Tips for camping with families
Look for parks with play areas: Some campgrounds offer dedicated spaces for children. At Pines RV Park, a visitor notes, "There was a playground on site but other than that it's nothing special. The park manager was very social. I don't mind but if you want privacy you may want to stay at a different location."
Consider parks with recreational activities: Ponderosa Falls RV Resort includes a mini-golf course on the premises. A camper shares, "It's secure with a gate and even has a mini golf course inside. Can not stress enough how safe and clean it is."
Weekend treats at certain parks: Some parks offer special weekend activities. At Premier RV Resort, a reviewer mentions, "The owners have fun with the residents... 'Sweet Saturday' with homemade goodies in the office and then Sunday Sundaes for $1 you can have an ice cream sundae with toppings in the office! The kids LOVED it!"
Tips from RVers
Route planning matters: When towing large rigs, carefully consider your approach route. A camper at Premier RV Resort advises, "Route 261 coming in from the NW passing by Palouse Falls and the town of Starbuck is EXTREMELY curvy and steep but absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend it UNLESS you have a big rig as the turns are very tight."
Campground access considerations: Some RV campgrounds near Endicott have restrictions or challenges for larger vehicles. "Been a member here for many years. Called to let them know our rig was bigger then it has said from previous years and we would be getting in late... when we arrived the spot was small and very uneven," reports a guest at Ponderosa Falls RV Resort.
Propane services: Some parks offer on-site propane refills, saving trips into town. Tucannon River RV Park provides propane fill service at $3.50 per gallon according to a recent visitor who noted, "There is propane fill here at $3.50/gal, not bad."
