"Leavenworth in washington is one of my favorite places to visit. One of the reasons I love coming here is because the hiking is incredible. Colchuck Lake is a must if you are in the Leavenworth area!"
"I went to Leavenworth for the Oktoberfest event with friends. We stayed there for two nights. We checked in and out very easily and it was very perfect. There are something that I like about KOA."
"Quick walk down to the water. Lake is absolutely beautiful. South campground had a store with hot food and ice cream (we didn’t try anything) as well as basic supplies."
"Outside the picturesque town of Leavenworth, lies the most stunning body of water in the Pacific Northwest. This was our first camping trip and we could not have picked a better time or place."
$18 - $36 / night
"Beautiful location not too far outside of town, several sites were available when we arrived, unlike the first two campgrounds we checked closer to town."
"Close to Leavenworth zipped down for supplies as decided to stay an extra night."
"Very nice well kept RV Park near the Bavarian town of Leavenworth. They have a well stocked store on site with laundry. Take in one of several musicals that play throughout the summer."
"This RV park just 10 minutes outside of Leavenworth, is an amazing stay. Excellent hospitality, bathrooms and showers available. And the views on the river are un paralleled."

"The river: the campground is next to Icicle Creek which we was lovely to listen to and our pup loved splashing around and cooling down."

"Just south of the awesome town of Leavenworth nestled in the hills. Awesome coffee shop just south called the Rock. Our family loved this place."

$27 / night
"We camped here due to all the campgrounds near the enchantments being full, but the 25 drive to and from leavenworth was very pretty and not too bad. Try to get a site on the creek!"
"Very close to amazing hikes and Leavenworth. Camp hosts were helpful, bathrooms were clean and comfortable."
"Great location on the river. Lots of places to walk the dogs. Sandy areas on the river to hang out. About 20 mins to Leavenworth and 15 mins to Wenatchee. Friendly staff."
"Convenient location between Leavenworth and Wenatchee. Must call or show up to make same day reservations. Otherwise can reserve online. Road noise during day. Was quiet from 10pm to 6am."

"We chose this campground because it was close to Leavenworth but we could still have a fun camping experience. We also checked out the Eightmile Lake Trail nearby for a pretty hike to an alpine lake."
"Quick last minute bouldering trip in Leavenworth"
TravelerThis place is amazing, easy to get into, lots of camping spaces, beautiful views.
There is a lot of garbage, and especially broken glass bottles 😢
Asides from that is great! We have full bars on T-Mobile, and have no neighbors with 300 feet or so.
The entrance is a little tricky, and the “road”s are a little rough when you’re down here.
TravelerPassed a park ranger on the way and he never said anything. There is also paid for camping on the way up here. But this spot is prime and free, just takes about 40 minutes to get to while on an unpaved road. Also have full service. About 4,750 ft high.
TravelerJust went out last night to check and see if it was open, Lewis G. is correct. A big gate is up at the end of the road saying "road closed"
LegendThis review, and apparently most other reviews here, are for the south campground. I didn't see a Dyrt record for the north campground, but it should potentially have one as south and north are pretty different. North is more basic and peaceful and rugged, and south is more developed and family friendly. There is direct access to the lake here, with a boat launch. There's a playground, store with snacks and basics, and accessible and gendered restrooms. 20 ft max vehicle length, per sign at campground entrance.
No Discover Pass needed to camp here, but the Discover Pass will get you in for free day use if you aren't camping here.
LegendWe checked this place out but decided not to stay. It’s free, and nice, and easy access, and there were a few spots where we would have fit in our 26ft class c, but it somehow seemed too overgrown and claustrophobic. We decided to continue on and look for boondocking in the forest.
There was only one set of campers when we visited here in the middle of the week. It’s a small campground, with around 10 or fewer sites, one way in and out with an area to turn around at the end.
Sites come with picnic tables and fire pits. Zero cell reception for Verizon or ATT. Clean pit toilet at the campground entrance. 14 day stay limit. No trash service, no water.
LegendThis is a huge USFS campground in the Wenatchee National Forest, with something like 4 separate loops and separate entrances from the road. Most of the sites are reservable on recreation.gov but they have a few FCFS sites (these sites aren’t marked with an“R” on the post).
We got lucky on a Friday with a FCFS site when all the reservable sites were marked as “reserved” for the weekend.
$25/night, pay with cash or check at self-registration kiosk. Park is run by a concessionaire. Nicely kept, very clean, host on site, pit toilets and water spigots available. No dump or water fill, no hookups. There are trash dumpsters but no recycling. Hard to get a site with an open sky view for solar.
Many of the sites are pull through (curve along the camp site type). Some sites are right along the creek, beautiful and peaceful, and some are right on the road. There are trails and nice walks that take you to Lake Wenatchee, which is beautiful.
Good cell reception for ATT and Verizon.
LegendNice state campground, well kept, beautiful lake if you can get one of the lakeside spots. We had site#11, and the road noise was just too too loud for me. Definitely try to get a spot away from the road. We arrived after the ranger shack at the entrance had closed for the day, but they have a really easy phone registration process if you arrive after hours but before 10pm. After 10 pm they say to just pick an unreserved spot and pay in the morning.
Showers are free. Cell reception was good.
