Best Glamping near Ford, WA

We have stayed here two times, with our little starlight Tent Trailers. Almost a week each time. The setting is beautiful. The lake is clean and full of fish!!

Bald eagles, Loons, turtles, even Moose & Bears ! The resort office has a small cafe and store. This resort has been around for many years and is a bit run-down. Some their old log cabins are looking like very old log cabins. Wonderful if you don't care about level floors. They also have a multi-room motel if you want that instead. Common Bathrooms that also show their age. 

There are boat docks, with slips for rent. Paying the dock fee or camping covers the Indian reservation recreation fee. An Indian reservation fishing license is required here, but not a Washington State License. If you have a WA license, you still need the Reservation License.

Really amazing area for families and pets. The first 9 campgrounds are right on the water so my dog was so happy to be right on the beach. Perfect space for leads in every campsite and very well kept.

This camping spot is conveniently located off a well groomed gravel road just a mile or so from the main paved road. It’s the first campsite we came to as we drove into Lake Roosevelt. There were a couple other campers, but it wasn’t crowded at all. The only downfall is the sites are really close to one another. But the lake and beach are huge and there’s plenty of room for your dogs to play. There’s Fire pits and picnic tables for each designated camp site. Sometimes even a little firewood. We pulled our pop-up camper into site 7 which was perfect. Then we fished and enjoyed the evening under the stars.

My family has been going to this campground and area since before I was born. We used to go every summer growing up. There's a designated swimming area for kids, a dock, and a playground. Definitely a busy spot mid summer season, but good for the whole family. Lots of boats of the lake, good for water skiing or wakeboarding. A bunch of smaller, more quiet and secluded beaches nearby.

A beautiful spot for family camp outs. Lots of room for kids to play safely. Warm welcoming locals. Warm relaxing water. Great for fishing, sun bathing, hanging out around the fire under a whole universe of stars. Most beautiful sunsets. Can't go wrong here.

Sites are not shaded at all and very close together. Sites on the water are highly trafficked by other campers. Water was unswimmable due to swimmer’s itch contamination. Host was very friendly and bathrooms were clean.

Good

Standard State Park facilities set near downtown Spokane in a beautiful river gorge. You don't feel close to the city at all here with plenty of space to hike and bike. The dogs loved it too. There are 2 different camp areas. If you're looking for more peace and quiet, or want to toss a fishing line in, try to book in the lower section. It's waterfront and farther from day use areas and landmark Bowl and Pitcher rock feature.

great, awesome!

Great location by the river. Tons of great hikes in the park. Sites are primitive, but there are bathrooms and showers available. Campsite is beautiful year round.

This is a place that my family and I visit a lot. We love how calm the river is and the convenience of bringing it dogs. There is a nice cement slab just in the water so it makes a safe place for kids.

Close to town 🌆 this Park is nice to get away for the day. I love the swinging bridge 🌉. However camping 🏕 here is very simple with basic facilities and the campsites all in the dirt. A great place to hike 🚶but not my favorite campsite ⛺.

This is a larger campground great for RV, trailers and tents. The sites are enclosed in a circle, making a nice walk or bike ride. The campgroundl has partial hook ups and is very camper friendly otherwise.

Sites are pretty open not offering a good amount of privacy, though most are along the Spokane River. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring, with bbq grate. The site has showers and flushing toilets!!

This is a perfect getaway for people looking to unplug as no cell service (tested on sprint, verizon, and google fi) is available. There is tons of wildlife and lots of trails and riverbank to explore.my favorite thing was the suspension bridge over the river. Lots of space for swimming and fishing!

Bowl and Pitcher campground has several partial-hookup sites with electricity and water, and several with no hook ups. There is a dump station, and two restrooms both with showers. The largest site length is 45 feet, so large RVs won’t fit. Reservations can be made online. It is very close to the city, so you can eat out if you don’t want to cook. Lots if hiking trails along the Spokane River.

Just a beatiful park! Lots of hiking trails and wildlife viewing. The swinging bridge is awesome. Popular area. The bathrooms are nice, the river is beautiful. Campsites are a little small.

Great overnight camping for tents and vehicles. Hiking trails River! Trees!

Riverside State Park has a magnificent equestrian campground on the west side of the river.  The main campground has electrical hookups, horse corrals & pit toilets.  With permission, overflow camping is available by the arena facility and readily accommodates "high lines" for your horses.  Many miles of trails intersect at this point, or close by.  There are many hiking, biking, fishing, kayaking and even ORV activities in this huge park.  We visit frequently, but spring and fall are probably the most scenic times.

This is a beautiful location with great trails.  It is a short walk to the river where there is great fishing.  Bathrooms were clean and the park overall was super nice.  We pulled in around 4pm and were quickly greeted by the camp host once we had chosen a site.  We explained we wanted to stay two nights without a reservation.  He took some info from us had some small chat and that was it.  The following morning around 830am we were promptly greeted by a female park ranger who returned our second days payment.  She said the site was booked for tonight and we had to move next to the bathrooms or next to a family of 6 kids.  We asked why the host would not be aware of the booking and that we had explained our intensions to him.  She had no explanation and told us if we decided to stay to fill out another slip and deposit it.  This left a bad taste in our mouth for sure and we left.

We actually live right down the road from this park and now a days, hike here regularly. But back in the day, we camped here a few times when a big vacation was not an option. This is a nice little campground with plenty of tent sites and trails to check out.  It is really close to Spokane but is nestled in such a way that you would not realize the city is there.  Can be dry and hot in the summer but in the fringe seasons, it is a great place to visit.

Beautiful park right on the Spokane River with lots of hiking. Very clean and well maintained. The park rangers were friendly and helpful. We will stay here again!

Just started using it . 😁 So far

As a Spokane local, I spend a lot of time in riverside with my family. We thought a night camping there would be a fun way to wrap up spring break. The bathhouse is dated but clean, the access to hiking and biking is fantastic, and there are nice sandy swimming holes just down at the river. The only downside is that the sites are relatively small and close together. We didn’t have a level spot large enough for our Big Agnes Big House 6, and I could have flicked a pebble from our site and hit our neighbors loud generator. If access is your priority, this is perfect. If space and quiet is it, this one is lacking. For us, the access makes it worth it.

I liked this campground and found it clean with generous-sized sites. The river runs through this site, there is a cool suspension bridge to check out as well as some amazing rock structures nearby. I have a couple of issues with it, one the sewage treatment plant is about a mile upstream. So, it's just hard to get excited about jumping in the river with that in mind. Two, it's a little difficult getting in and out of the campground for those of us with trailers and RV's, as the road in/out is narrow and without much of a shoulder. Other than that, it seems well run, is safe & clean with good bathrooms and showers.

Beautiful campground on the Spokane River. Hiking and biking trails from the campground. Vintage CCC buildings and suspension bridge. Very nice and clean bathrooms and showers.

Great trails along the river adjacent to the campground. Warm showers cost a dollar or two, but they're clean and the bathrooms are clean. Would get five stars if they camping sites were more private.

Did not have reservations but got lucky with an open site. Make a reservation ahead of time if you want to be guaranteed a site. The campground is full and a bit loud. But very clean and well maintained, including the bathrooms. Each site has a fire ring and picnic table. Multiple water spigots close by. Lots of walking trails nearby and a cool suspension bridge over the river. Other than the lack of solitude, absolutely no complaints.
