Styled after a charming Bavarian village, Leavenworth lies at the foot of Washington’s eastern Cascade Range, and is backed by the sparkling granite peaks of the stunning Alpine Lakes Wilderness. Prior to its European facelift in the 1960s, Leavenworth was a rough and tumble logging town along the Great Northern Railway. Today, Leavenworth is a popular year-round destination for tourists and outdoor adventurers. Besides the many quaint shops, galleries, ice cream and candy parlors, brew houses, and bistros, the town hosts several fun events, including arts and crafts shows, classic car shows, beer and music festivals, Oktoberfest, and the Christmas Lighting Festival. For outdoor enthusiasts, there are abundant opportunities to hit the local trails and rivers for hiking, climbing, fishing and paddling. Located about 30 minutes north of Leavenworth, and just 10 minutes east of Lake Wenatchee, Leavenworth RV Campground makes a perfect basecamp for exploring the area, or just kicking back in some stunning mountain country. Boasting nearly 300 mostly wooded campsites, there’s a place for every kind of camper, from full- and partial-hookup RV sites, to small vehicle and tent sites. There’s also a selection of cabins, cottages, lodge rooms and tiny houses available. Restrooms and shower facilities are located in several of the camp areas, as well as a laundry room and dump station. Many sites and facilities are ADA accessible. Additional amenities include satellite TV, Wifi service, a clubhouse, library, game room, and store. Dogs are permitted. Campsites rates are $38–$52/night; other accommodations range from $147–$176/night; reservations recommended. You don’t have to travel far from the campground to enjoy an abundance of outdoor recreation. The resort features a large pool, sports courts—including mini golf, cornhole, and pickleball—and several walking, hiking and biking trails. Lounge beside one of the large ponds, or paddle around on a kayak or SUP. For summer hiking, pick up a trail map and head for the nearby Alpine Lakes Wilderness, where 100s of miles of trails climb high into a spectacular landscape of vivid lakes, flowering meadows, and towering peaks. Fishing and boating are available at nearby Lake Wenatchee, or try shooting the rapids on the Icicle and Wenatchee Rivers on a guided rafting trip. There’s plenty of winter outdoor fun as well, including local snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, downhill skiing and snowboarding at Stevens Pass, and sleigh rides around Leavenworth.

I went here a few years back during that intense heat wave. Despite being 107 in the spare shade here, the creek saved us. Definitely worth a visit and a trip back. Huge flat areas for a large number of campers, maybe up to 40 tents?
Legend
Nice park beside very slow river adjacent to busy road. No dogs on grass. Garbage. Picnic tables. Shaded. Stay 72 hours. Warm shower. Flush toilet. $10/night/vehicle or tent
Traveler
If you were looking for a quiet experience, this place is not for you. It’s a KOA, so they cram in as many people as possible. However it’s a great family friendly experience with a store, ice cream/coffee shop, daily activities, and green space to play games.
We spent most of our time at the river. There was a great shallow area for the kids and Dog to swim around.

Don't have much of a review, we found a spot here last second after signing up to run the Sun Mountain 25k last minute. Barely spent any time at the campground. I know the location was good for being able to just walk into town. The camp spots were just shared space in a grassy area. Nothing spectacular.
Guide
We took the opportunity to secure one of the “private” lots. Site S9 comes with a private fenced area, with fire pit, hot tub, seating and fully ready propane Weber. Staff is immediate and attentive. Free WiFi and only 1 hour from the National Park.
Traveler
We loved this campground. The grounds were well maintained, and bathrooms were clean. There was a good amount of space between sites, which was great. Most spots were very nice, and many were right next to the water. My guess is that it's a busy park during peak season, but our shoulder season timing was perfect for peace and quiet. There are a couple of good hikes nearby, and I hiked the Steamboat Rock hike. The first 1/3 of the hike was more moderate with steep trails and scree, but it gets easier once you're past that.
GuideWe had a site next to the river. The grass was well maintained and the entire part was inviting looking. Our site had a small pebbled beach area. It was enjoyable to sit by the river and watch the sunset.
Scout
Swimming In the pools is nice after hiking! I've been coming here since I was a kid and have hiked and camped all over Douglas creek. Beautiful scenery. Ticks are everywhere out there though, don't forget repellent!
TravelerWe got lucky and picked up a cancelled reservation on a whim. Never been here before and got a great waterfront spot with beautiful grass and view. The beach and playground were clean and the tent spot was perfect to put our toddlers kiddy pool. This is a great glampround right by Chelan, I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn’t right off the highway, we like to go for walks and bike rides with our kids and the location limited us to just the park or needing to drive into town which was only a couple minutes. Otherwise we are very happy to add it to our list of favorites and will be back.

I camped here in mid-May 2023. I camped in dispersed campground "A" and really enjoyed it. There is good shore access for bank fishing (I caught sun fish, crappie, and brown trout).
The camping was pretty quiet. Some mosquitos, but I've seen worse. The brown trout I grilled was good, too!
No cell service for me out here (T-Mobile). The road was rough, but pretty much any car can handle it.
TravelerHad a great time here staying only one night. Brought the dogs and found a great spot overlooking another group of campers and the small creek. Had a hiking trail that cuts in between the canyon with beautiful views that almost reminded me of Utah near Moab. Cons (for me) -Need a truck to access part of the roads and sites, we only saw a few sites before the road was flooded and we couldnt go forward.
-no trees for firewood, dry bushes that you’re able to collect and burn quite well with a small fire however.
Pros
-VERY private. About 30 minutes removed from cell signal
-beautiful landscape
primitive camps. No amenities. Zero. You get a spot to put down a tent and water from the creek if you didnt bring lots of water.
peaceful and great for relaxing. We went on memorial weekend 2023 om saturday night at 7:00pm and had no problem finding a great spot but there was a rather large group near the entrance with 5 kegs and drunk shouting all night. Could hardly hear them and wasnt bothered by it at all. Only to mention that we went on memorial weekend and felt like we had it to ourselves for the most part. It was nice
Highly recommend if you’re into bird watching, maybe catching little critters with bug nets and your kids or a relaxing weekend AWAY from EVERYTHING. Like FAAAR away from literally everything
GuideI've stayed at several KOA's over the years and this KOA is very nice. It has a great playground for the kids, a pool, shower stations, a coffee and ice cream bar, and a great general store. The safe was super friendly and helpful. The reason we stayed here specifically was its close proximity to downtown Leavenworth. When booking my stay, it was an additional$30 dollars to select my site and for a two-night stay, I felt that was too much. I quickly found out why they can charge$30 dollars. The first site we were placed in, site 20, could not even fit my 20-foot trailer. The second site, site 22, was a little longer and I could fit my trailer and truck into the site. The sites were so tight that we could barely fit the provided picnic table next to our trailer. As our neighbors arrived, they made a joke that their site was barely a driveway. That said, there were numerous spacious sites available if you were willing to spend the extra money.
ScoutIt is great to see that KOA has turned it around from the days of questionable sites. Because this one was great.
Guide
Very tidy, well maintained campground. Little bit of road noice but not terrible. 15, 30 and 50 amp connections on powered sites. Staff friendly. Quarter slot showers for four minutes (hot currently) and 2,25 dollar washes/dries.
Would stay again.
Ranger
October is perfect time. So quiet, leaves changing, crisp weather. Just make sure you have heated water hose
Scout
Never fails to be perfect.
LegendBeautiful location on river. Traffic noise but did not bother us at all. Would be tight when camp is full but it was not while we were there. Host did great job of spacing rvs throughout camp for optimal privacy. Male host a bit militant about dogs off leash (including in your site). Laundry facilities very dusty/dirty. One dryer (middle one) did not fry clothes well even though ran it twice. Good sized dog run and a lot of games for guest use. We had fun using corn hole game. Really decent price for full hookups and site was pretty level.
ScoutCurrently, there is a 72-hour camping limit and is a city park, which means they don't accept any type of pass or discount such as the Discover Pass. The fee is $10/night (72 hours maximum). But you can still hang out here during the day-use hours until then, if you don't have the money.
I like this area very much. Nothing spectacular, but free showers, free WiFi, bathrooms, water faucet, and water spigot is hard to beat.
You can call them and ask any questions. The number is 509-422-3600
GuideAmazingly relaxing quiet camping spot. Tent and RV sites available. Great area to explore, enjoy the water, and hike. Steamboat Rock Trail will take you to amazing 360° views of Banks Lake. Watch for snakes during the summer though.
ScoutWonderful check-in process. Super simple. Great customer service, friendly staff, you can receive packages here no charge. Lots of shade trees, level site, good spacing, places to access the river, etc.
GuideNormally I don't camp at KOA's but if you are trying to camp and ALSO do some usual Leavenworth things this is the perfect spot. It is walking and biking distance from town, right behind the Safeway, and has lots of amenities. Great place for kids especially there's tons of activities, playground and even a pool. There are 4 or 5 free activities daily and even a couple for 21+ which I appreciated as a visitor without kids.
We stayed in a tent site and it was small and dusty but had a private trail to the river which totally made up for the more cramped quarters. Quiet hours were observed and the staff was ultra friendly. Picked up our propane and filled it for us and everything!
I will definitely go back here during shoulder season and rent a cabin.
GuideGreat scenery. Great wildlife. Had deer in our camp spot. Stayed in 86. Nice and close to the water. Great for swimming boating hiking you name it! New favorite nearby place!!
Scout
Walk in spots for tent camping you have to walk a half mile to camp from your car. Rv spots are nice but close to other ppl.
Traveler
We stayed on the East Side of the lake by the dock. Vault toilets, Paved roads, right on the water, fire pits, etc. Clean - first come first serve - fills up quick starting around 5pm om Friday. So if you're trying for the weekend - get there quick.
TravelerPark is so clean, employees are friendly and large spaces. Only downside is constant highway noise, large truck jake brakes, railroad tracks and train blowing horn at 10:30 pm. Otherwise a perfect stop.
