Visitors enjoy camping, fishing, boating, hiking, picnicking and swimming.
The lake provides great boating and swimming opportunities, and a boat ramp is provided for guests. Fishing is also a popular pastime, and anglers will find excellent salmon and steelhead fishing on the lake.

Camping here is nice on the Columbia River Washington side. Little breezy at times. $40.00 a night for RV $30.00 for veterans $20.00 for tents
TravelerThis campground offers developed sites with hookups for campers. There is a playground and interpretive events for kids in the evenings. They even had some movies on the weekends. This area is peaceful and relaxing for families. If you are looking for wilderness camping, this is not the place as it has mowed /irrigated lawns around the campground. There is a nature area with some trails onsite for exploring.
TravelerWe do an annual trip here every Father’s Day weekend. Close to the river, plenty of fishing and swimming. The trees are nice. This is an Army Corp of Engineers campground so some federal rules apply: no firearms, no alcohol(at least not openly)
The only issue we have is the sprinklers come on Friday nights and wash the tents for us. it’s good and bad.
ScoutNo water or sewer hookups. Lots of nice sites. If you are a long rv, be cautious as the reservation line has little knowledge of sites.
GuideI was there for a day, nice place for car camping, easy snake river access.
LegendWe stopped here on a longer stretch of our drive and it was the perfect reprieve for cramped car legs :)
ScoutWe reserved 4 nights here and left after two because we had to do everything inside our camper, otherwise there were spiders (and not the little ones) on us, on our chairs, on our everything! Black spiders, red spiders, brown spiders and spider sprays don't work. After spraying the outside of our tent trailer within minutes they were back. They were hanging from the trees! And no matter what you left out, the were webs on them the next morning! I WILL NEVER GO BACK THERE!!!!
GuideAug. 28th-30th is space #24. Lots of very large spiders everywhere. Mosquitoes were super bad. Nice fire pits but you can't have fires. Showere were decent. They need to be updated. Lots of green grass and lots of shade. All in all not bad. We will be back. Hopefully with less spiders.
TravelerWell maintained state park.
ScoutVery nice clean and the staff is very helpful highly recommended 👌
GuideDo not try to check in before 2 pm!!!! No alcohol allowed in park!
Typical Park campground outside of urban area. Decent swim beach area a lot of algae outside of swim area. Town is close by so you can do other things ( Groceries, laundromat etc…..) while waiting for check in. Spider issue others write about appears to be controlled. However every picnic table has lots of spider webs underneath!!!!
TravelerLots of options in this campground from drive through big trailer spots to back in spots to tent only areas.
Tons of wide green lawns with lots of space, camp sites end up pretty well spaced apart so you might only have 2 or 3 neighbors then a ton of lawn before another neighbor.
It's right on the snake river, so you can practically fish from your camp site if you want. There is a connected wildlife preserve that you can walk around in and also fish in that is a sperate area. Lots of birds to watch.
There is also a connected park that is only open during the day with a beach.
Fully facilities including water and power hookups, a central dumping station. Flush toilets and showers included. A playground for the kids.
River barges keep things along the river interesting. Maybe road noise from the nearby highway was a bit louder than we'd like.
ScoutThe campground was beautiful. Close to the river. Pull through rv sites, with plenty of room for second vehicle or boat. With boat dock. However, we woke to a lot (hundreds) of huge spiders 🕷😳 all over our rv and cars. They were everywhere.
TravelerBathhouse was clean, sited are spacious, tons of green space.
GuideWe stayed here 2 nights and other than some spiders on our stuff in the morning, and that seems to be only on the sites under the trees, I have zero complaints and will be back next time for a longer stay. The park is very clean and while there are no water hookups they do have filling stations to fill tanks or whatever you use. They also don’t have sewer hookups but do have an on-site dump station for you to empty out. Bathrooms were immaculate and they provided free showers which is a bonus because most places charge for them. Campsites are cozy but spacious and depending on your site you can be right on the Snake River. Beautiful place and had it not been for the alcohol ban it would have got 5 stars
LegendI appreciate the green in this park, but hate that the sprinklers have to be running almost non-stop to keep it that way. The noise of them scared my cat.
Tried to check in early, but was not allowed. Hung out in the day-use area.
The sites were big and some nice trees.
Electric, but no water. Was told to fill up jugs at the faucets scattered around the park. The water was disgusting! I filled one jug and it came out a light brown color. The park host saw the expression on my face and came over to tell me the water is tested every day and is safe to drink. Safe or not, I was not about the drink that.
There's a nice walk around a pond in the back of the campground. Overall, a decent place to stay if you're in the area, but not my favorite.
TravelerLovely campground with access to the lake. Not the most beautiful view with the industrial buildings on the other side, but it’s peaceful and quiet. Electrical hookups. Water and a dump station available to campers near the entrance. Great playgrounds and a swimming beach. Sites 14 and 15 would be great for two families camping together.
TravelerBe sure to stop at the entrance cabin, even if it appears empty. Our site, #9, was maybe 100 Rey from the Columbia. It. Was, however, roughly half way between the restrooms and the showers which were both about 100 yards away. We were very tired the first night and the noises from the industrial traffic on the river did not prevent us from sleeping. Not so the second night. You can also her the semi’s crossing the bridge . Mosquitoes were present but our device kept them away.
TravelerPark was closed, gates locked, as of 9-5-2023.
ScoutPopular Army Corps of Engineers campground on Snake River in Tri-Cities. Flush toilets, real showers. In fairness to this campground, my 3 stars is because we stayed in overflow lot for $14, while real site would have cost us $12 (weekday fee, more on weekend). Campground seemed to have nice vibe with kids on bikes, large playground, amphitheater.

This area is very well maintained and the staff is very friendly.
RangerWe camped here May 2016. This park we tried the tent only site and it was a bit of a walk to haul all of our stuff. The trees were in bloom and bugs hatching & swarming, so that was a huge hurdle. Fishing was great off of the docks. Showers were nice, although not located in the tent part of camp. Bathrooms were ok, but no lights at night. The beach would be nice when the water is higher, otherwise it's just muddy.
TravelerThe campground is beautiful! Wish the US Corps of Engineers would make the season longer. Sewer is not available but they do have a dump station. RV sites have a crazy amount of space between them - so awesome to not have to look into your neighbors RV. We had a short walk to the shore with our paddle boards and a great day on the river. Down side - got a little loud on Sunday. Boats and personal water craft clogged the marina and the staff began their mowing and weed eating bright and early - guess they're reminding everyone of check out time. Regardless, looking forward to many more stays!
GuideLove this campground and will come back. My husband and I usually pull our ‘68 Aristocrat Lo-Liner but on this trip we were “roughing it” with a tent and a small SUV. I was happy that not only did we get a spot on the river, but there were free, clean hot showers centrally located. The back in spots were not too close together. Some spots offer shade, others are full on sun. And the catfish were biting!
ScoutNot worth spending your money here!!!! The bathrooms are disgusting and the site you pay for my don’t come with the amenities that you thought you were paying for because the camping site says one thing but willam can jut change the rules because he can I guess!!!!! DO NOT COME HERE
GuideCamped here from Tuesday through Saturday. Campground was quiet and clean. Be aware of what campsite you get as we picked spot 27 and we’re not made aware before hand that you need an escort to your site due to the site facing the opposite way of traffic. It is also right off of the train tracks and the train runs numerous times a day and early in the morning. Nice swimming area but unless you have a boat there is really nothing to do in the area. Did go see the Whitman Mission which was definitely worth checking out. Site 16 is the best but only has power, no water hookups or sewer. None of the site’s have sewer hookups. There’s a dump station on site though with a black water flush out and also potable water available. Site 27 was in the direct sunlight, no shade, all day. Also had strong side winds coming off of the lake. There’s a trail to the lake but we were warned not to use it due to the high likely hood of encountering rattlesnakes.
