Best Campgrounds near Liberty Lake, WA

800 Reviews

Liberty Lake, Washington features a mix of established campgrounds and RV parks within a short drive of the Spokane metropolitan area. Liberty Lake Regional Park offers tent sites, RV hookups, and cabin options in a forested setting near the lake, with hiking trails and a swimming beach. The surrounding area includes several RV-focused facilities like Liberty Lake RV Campground and Spokane KOA Journey, which provide full hookups and amenities for travelers. Campgrounds in the region range from more rustic experiences at state parks to resort-style RV parks with pools, laundry facilities, and recreational amenities.

Most campgrounds in the Liberty Lake area operate seasonally, with Liberty Lake Regional Park typically open from mid-May through mid-September. "The road coming into the campground is steep and narrow with a sharp turn at the end so larger RVs would have a problem," noted one visitor about Liberty Lake Regional Park. Winter camping options are limited to year-round RV parks like Spokane KOA Journey. Reservations are strongly recommended during summer months, especially for weekend stays. The region experiences hot, dry summers and cold winters with occasional snow, making late spring through early fall the primary camping season. Many campgrounds provide water and electric hookups, with some offering full hookup sites for RVs.

Campers consistently mention the convenience of Liberty Lake's location between Spokane and Coeur d'Alene as a major advantage. The proximity to both urban amenities and natural features makes it popular for weekend getaways. Liberty Lake Regional Park receives positive reviews for its hiking trails, waterfall access, and swimming beach. Several visitors note the campground's small size and peaceful atmosphere despite being relatively close to residential areas. RV parks in the area tend to be more developed and urban in character, with one camper describing Liberty Lake RV Campground as "a parking lot with RVs" but appreciating its convenient location and amenities. For those seeking more remote experiences, national forest campgrounds are available within an hour's drive.

    Hog Lake Campground

    Boondocking

    A good spot to stay a night or more. Currently NO FIRES due to high risk of forest fires. Several spots to boondock. There is a dumpster and port a poty. Several others here. Sites are spaced out well though.

    Round Lake State Park Campground

    Well kept with lots of amenities and activities

    60 dollars a night and checkout was at 1. Lots of amenities and we enjoyed the family environment. Definitely glamping but a perfect beginner spot. Lots to do; Fishing, hiking, swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding etc. Great spot!

    Blackwell Island RV Park

    Coeur d’Alene Lakefront RV park

    Nicely located and well maintained large rv park on Lake Coeur d’Alene. This park offers both lake front and non-lakefront spaces with full hookups. This park offered free but poor WiFi unless in or near the club house. Kayaks speedboat in pontoon boats are available for rent from the front office. This park could use more foliage between sites otherwise a nice place to stay near downtown, stores and restaurants. We would stay here again.

    Shadowy St. Joe Campground — Idaho Panhandle National Forests

    Great Campground

    The Shadowy St. Joe Campground is a great place to stay. It has 14 sites total. With one taken by the camp hosts, all are paved, with space for 2 vehicles each, have fire pits, and a picnic bench, and electricity. 7 sites to reserve ahead of time on the meadow side that has grass and is spacious. There are 6 first come first serve sites, 2 on the meadow side, and 4 along the river. If looking to reserve a site, the numbers start with #1 closest to the entrance on the meadow side and grow larger in counter clockwise fashion. There is a day use area you can also reserve, with charcoal grills, and multiple picnic benches. There are several vault toilets and all are kept very clean by the 2 wonderful park hosts. There is a boat launch area for day use, with a small fee, but if camping there is no extra charge. There is 2 docks and if staying multiple days you can leave your boat on the dock overnight. It is supposed to be a no wake zone, but the signs have warn down, so we lost a bumper to our boat from crashing into the dock, from passing boat wakes. There is a couple of potable water stations available, with small hose spouts, but no water hookups at the sites. The sites are electric with 50amp, 30amp, and 110 plugs available. No sewer hookup at the sites, but there is a dump station at the fairgrounds in the town of St. Maries about 10 miles away. Phone service is spotty, texting easier and lots of dropped calls, but we like to unplug when camping. Dogs are allowed with no limits, just to stay on leashes at all times. The Lazy St. Joe River is boat passable up to St. Joe City, and all the way to Lake Coeur d'Alene if you want to adventure for a full day in the boat. Great for fishing too. Make sure to have Idaho invasive species tag for the boat if you are from out of state. The Sheriff and Park Rangers patrol daily and check. St. Maries has 2 grocery stores, and sports shop where you can get supplies, and fishing licenses. The town also has great shops, a swimming pool, parks, restaurants, and ATM/banks. This is a great little gem in the Gem State.
